Happy Mondays dancer Bez launched his run for the UK Election this May today by handing out free beer to potential supporters.
Bez (Mark Berry) also unveiled a billboard in Salford, where he will stand as leader of the Reality Party.
The 2005 Celebrity Big Brother winner is standing on an anti-fracking and anti-austerity ticket. He said that he had 'never voted before in my life' but had undergone a personal political awakening.
Bez branded UK Prime Minister David Cameron a "puppet" of big business corporations and bankers and added: "The Labour party was supposed to defend the people and be for the working class, but now they only have ever so slightly different polices from the Conservatives.
"Power needs to return to the people. People must join the revolution which is The Reality Party."
