The Official Monster Raving Loony Party
There’s a Wikipedia entry for Tarquin Fin-tim-lin-bin-whin-bim- lim-bus- stop-F’tang-F’tang-Olé-Biscuitbarrel. The name of a character in Monty Python’s Election Night sketch, it was adopted by a candidate in a parliamentary by-election in the UK. I learned about it from Scary Duck the blog.
Mr. Biscuit-Barrel lost, but placed ahead of four other candidates. Yet for sheer silliness this does not compare to Philippine elections.

oh hey, the monster raving loony party, who first proposed the idea of Pet Passports. i don’t know what the standards are back home in the PI, but here in the EU i can get them from the local vet (apparently — i haven’t tried yet). maybe you can take the kids with you next time when you travel.
