NATIONAL service for former prime ministers and an invitation to EU member states to join the UK are among the eye-catching manifesto pledges unveiled today by satirical candidate Count Binface.

Binface, who styles himself as an intergalactic space warrior, is standing against Rishi Sunak in the PM’s Richmond, Yorkshire, constituency.

Other promises in the Binface manifesto include Grade I listing for Claudia Winkelman’s fringe and double-locking pensions with an extra chain on the side.
