I wish Count Binface all the best for the Clacton by-election.

(In the US, his name would translate as Count Trash Can-Face or Count Garbage Can-Face.)

Same in the UK. If you look at his pic, you’ll see it’s literal!

"Bin," generally, isn't British English. We have recycling bins, for instance.
gwerbin•35m ago
Yes but in the USA a "bin" usually refers to a generic category of containers, often rectangular. A "recycling bin" is a specific kind of bin, and it's almost always qualified as such. If you called it a "bin" out of context people would be confused or think you're trying to be British or something.

> isn't British English.

Eh? Most commonly uttered words in UK English: "Have you put the bins out?"

Or in Massachusetts, Count Barrelface.

With this much memery he would probably win the presidential election in the US.

"Harvey previously stood as a similar character, Lord Buckethead, but was forced to create a new character due to a dispute with the filmmaker Todd Durham, who owns the Buckethead character" [1].

(The videos on this website are worth the watch. Hilarious, of course. But also...Binface conjugates Latin to Sky News, and not just as a bit. I don't know how I feel about the British comedy candidate outclassing half of the American elected leadership–and a good fraction of its industrial leadership–on IQ.)
