      Carl Benjamin, aka Sargon of Akkad, finished in a smashing 6th place in Southwest England, winning an incredible 3% of the vote. No European parliamentary seat for Carl. Back to semi-intelligible YouTube rants about "classical liberalism," I guess

      Count me as shocked that Carl's hot, classically liberal platform didn't resonate with voters in Gloucestershirepic.twitter.com/i7hLHNKws9

          Carl lost out to Ann Widdecombe, the former Conservative MP and anti-feminist media pundit. I guess it's not that Carl's views are totally incompatible with the electorate; it's just that voters aren't so keen on Carl, Milo, and the rest of their flamboyant online trolling gangpic.twitter.com/LhIZpBTCF9

          I like Sargon's videos. His performance in the polls is not bad for a complete amateur, with very little in the way of a party machine behind him. There are worse people in politics.

          Yeah, I didn't think he was going to do very well, not in the least because UK voters have turned their back on UKIP in a huge and major way.

          I think he would say himself that he never had a chance with all things considered.

          In his street interviews he uses Carl. I'd say: The activist is Sargon The politician is Carl

          People spent so much time attacking him that they largely ignored Farage.

          As one of Gloucestershire's voters, neoclassical liberalistism has me unconvinced. What even is his position on farming subsidies?
