Vote for a Madman

Years before Screaming Lord Sutch, Ray invited people to “Vote for a Madman” for Nottingham City Council in 1963.
He gained a respectable 475 votes.

Bus Pass Elvis Party Poster

In his later years, Ray encouraged and supported Lord Biro (Dave Bishop)’s Bus Pass Elvis Party. Main campaign aim was that bus passes for pensioners should be valid after 10.30pm. Dave designed this poster when Ray planned to stand in Arboretum Ward, Nottingham, but his criminal record prohibited this, so Dave stood instead.
