Brian Rose got just 32,111 votes, despite telling his followers and the respectable people he interviews that he was in second place in the Mayoral race. He claims he spent £1m on his campaign. If his (unlawful) spending total is accurate (big if), each vote cost him £32.14.

Another calculation - he got 6,356 more votes than Count Binface, who (reportedly) spent £10,000 on the campaign, so the marginal benefit of the £990,000 is £155.76 per vote

@CountBinface hasn’t even spread antivax misinformation, suggested his followers follow the investment advice of someone who has been found guilty of investment fraud, or sold people self-improvement courses that have hundreds of complaints and refund demands.1 reply 0 retweets 5 likes -

You’d imagine. Though getting the media to mention any of those things was surprisingly difficult...

To be fair, it is London so I'm not sure the moniker of rational society quite fits
