In an interview with Jeremy Vine, The Count was challenged on the general requirement for people to not wear hats in the chamber. His retort was that it's also generally required to declare donations.

    I enjoyed his interview with Andrew Marr.

    Marr: "Are you actually going to fight a serious door-by-door, street-by-street campaign?"

    Count Binface: "....No."

    I saw that. It was amazing. He said something along the lines of if Nigel can get away with not declaring donation then he can probably bend the rules to allow a costume in parliament.

    Another take away line, after being asked if the count was worried about the monster raving looney party running in Clacton, there were words to the effect: "If anything, the monster raving looney party will split the Reform vote"
