Most polls suggest that Sunak will retain his seat, as every prime minister has before him. But his national approval rating is so low that an Ipsos survey released Saturday found that Sunak was only four percentage points ahead of Binface on favorability. Binface, in turn, was viewed more favorably than former prime minister Liz Truss.

What I really want to happen here is for him to win his seat. And then he has to resign causing a by-election resulting in a Labour win.
It would be his final coup de grace just to reaffirm in everyone’s minds what an utterly useless prime minister he was.
Taserface has him beat.
Nah, binface seems pretty well grounded.
4 points! If he doesn’t beat Sunak, there’s no justice in this world.
Make it happen, people.
Not that I think Sunak has any intention of sticking around in UK politics after the election, but still.
Best man in politics.
This idiot might well be the difference between Sunak holding his seat and losing it.
American here - our FEC takes a very dim view of satirical and otherwise non-existent candidates who file the paperwork to run, which makes me curious… If the Count were to win, who would actually take the seat? Have we any idea who is behind the (highly effective) satire, and would they be able to seamlessly serve?
he’s a british comedian and IIRC the ballot paper shows both names https://www.parliament.uk/business/news/2023/july-2023/new-mps-elected-at-july-by-elections/
