The NHS: If you come to A&E and it’s neither an accident nor an emergency then you will be sent to a random hospital department to be practised on.

The utter disdain for PR made clear at the start of his video is so endearing as well.

Q & A with the Telegraph and Indy:
If you could decapitate (politically) any of the party leaders, which would it be?
"If the current lot stay in, my chances are infinitely better. So none of them..."
"If the current lot stay in, my chances are infinitely better. So none of them..."
Will you serve a full term if elected?
"Let’s cross that bridge when we come to it, shall we? I don’t want to be like a normal politician and make a promise I can’t keep.
"Let’s cross that bridge when we come to it, shall we? I don’t want to be like a normal politician and make a promise I can’t keep.
Do you think there are too many Oxbridge-educated, public-school establishment types running the country, and don't the public want an alternative to that?
"I couldn’t agree more. Who wants clever people in charge?"
"I couldn’t agree more. Who wants clever people in charge?"
How will The Pub Landlord ensure that the Welsh language is spoken throughout all of the UK?
"With great difficulty, I expect."

Thanks for your proposal for a price cap on beer. What about shandy?
"If you think for one minute I’m going to do shandy drinkers any favours you’ve got another thing coming pal. Though their shandies will be considerably cheaper."
"If you think for one minute I’m going to do shandy drinkers any favours you’ve got another thing coming pal. Though their shandies will be considerably cheaper."
What do you think about claims some of your policies on immigration might be racist?
The Pub Landlord: “Is it really racist to say: ‘Argh god no, no we don’t want any of you or your lot coming over here to live here Christ no thanks argh Jesus? Stay away stay away’? Actually when you put it like that it might be racist. Er. My press bloke is telling me to move on. But the last thing we need is people coming over and making us look work-shy. Next question!.”

Has mass immigration really led to Muslim 'ghettos' in Britain, “like Birmingham”?
“It seems there’s been some kind of terrible misunderstanding about Birmingham. It’s not a new thing, no one’s ever wanted to go there.”
“It seems there’s been some kind of terrible misunderstanding about Birmingham. It’s not a new thing, no one’s ever wanted to go there.”
Nigel Farage welcomed your challenge as “serious competition”. How do you view Russell Brand’s no-vote challenge for a representative democracy?
“What you have to admire about Russell is he what he might lack in serious argument he makes up for with adjectives. But not voting when there’s an election on is like watching a porno when you could be having sex. You’d think Russ would know that. But what I do admire about Russell is he would never just parachute himself into a constituency, he’d come by helicopter.”

Guardian today.
Q. Is it right that Polish immigrants can win our British Turner prize?
A. If they’re quicker, cheaper and clean up after themselves, what’s not to like? Ours are a scruffy lot. The Polish Tracy Emin’s bed has lovely hospital corners.

Re: Al "The Pub Landlord" Murray to run against Farage
I just watched the outtakes for the "Leaders debate" (Nicola Sturgeon won in my view, she would be a fantastic leader and I might have to turn Scottish ).
Nigel was going all right as well...until he basically said "**** foreigners with aids. Send 'em back to their own countries to die" (in more words) which was shocking, not only for it's lack of common human decency, but because if foreign countries ask for their doctors back to treat these patients as 26% of NHS doctors are actually foreigners
. Then something very weird and slightly telling happened...only Leanne Wood (who got the first applause from a shocked audience) stood up to him. It was as if Miliband, Clegg and Cameron where stuck in the headlights waiting for a PR person to offer advice or something, they had become so obsessively focused on politicing they didn't notice the elephant sneak in.
Even nice amenable people where revolted:
