This made me Smile! Comedian Al Murray will stand in his guise as The Pub Landlord against UKIP leader Nigel Farage at the general election. Mr Murray, whose character is based around a love for all things British, has formed the Free United Kingdom Party. He confirmed he would stand forward for election in Thanet South, in Kent. He said: It seems to me that the UK is ready for a bloke waving a pint around, offering common sense solutions. Dan Lloyd, who represents Al Murray through production company Avalon, said its definitely happening and confirmed papers will be lodged before the deadline. In a video posted online he said: Let it be known that like many of the parliamentary hopefuls in the forthcoming election, I have no idea where South Thanet is. But did that stop Margaret Thatcher from saving the Falkland Islands? No.
