Previously Sutch had stood, or attempted to stand, under a whole raft of party names since 1964. A similar concept appeared in the "Election Night Special" sketch by Monty Pythons Flying Circus in 1971 in which a Silly and Sensible Party competed against each other. Monty Python also popularised the word "loony" in the sense that Sutch was using in the name of the OMRLP, but it is possible that Sutch inspired Monty Python by managing to stand against [Harold Wilson]? in 1966 and in the City of London election in 1970. |
