Beauties for Britain to stand in Henley

Miss Great Britain Unveils National Plans (from Crewe Guardian)

Quote:

MISS Great Britain Gemma Garrett has unveiled plans to extend her Beauty for Britain movement into every Parliamentary seat.
Gemma is standing as an independent candidate in the Crewe and Nantwich by-election on a platform of making Westminster sexy not sleazy.
She said that scores of beautiful and intelligent women have signed up to her manifesto to make Westminster politics as glamorous as their European counterparts.
The Beauty for Britain movement will be unveiling a candidate for the Henley-on-Thames seat to be vacated by the newly elected Mayor of London, Boris Johnson.
And it will follow this with the placing of a candidate in every by-election between now and the next General Election when it will unveil a raft of candidates nationwide.
Gemma, aged 26 from Belfast, said: "This is a movement which is growing by the day and which could literally change the face of British politics forever.
"The leaders of countries such as Italy, France and Spain have shown that they understand the power of attractive women to make things happen by promoting brilliant and glamorous women into their cabinets.
"Even traditional female politicians like chancellor Angela Merkle in Germany and our own Jackie Smith seem to be trying to inject some of the Sarkozy factor into their personal politics.
"Our movement is all about giving beauty the chance to make a difference in a way which will help voters on really important issues like child care, the National Health Service and proper pay and conditions for our servicemen."
Gemma's political adviser and the co-founder of the Beauties for Britain movement, Robert de Keyser, added: "For too long British voters have had the dreary choice between three parties - Labour, Conservative and Lib Dem - whose policies now contain so much copycat thinking that voters are left with no real choices.
"The predictable result is that they are becoming cynical and are turning away from politics in their millions. Beauty for Britain's candidates will ensure a genuine fourth party candidate for all voters."
The Fourth Way will be the beautiful and effective way of cleaning up British politics, making politicians accountable again and guaranteeing that the voters' voices will be heard."

There seems to be some confusion as to whether it is Beauty for Britain or Beauties for Britain

de Keyser's the chairman of the company that runs the Miss GB contest. Free publicity and the possibility of a guy in his late 50s being photographed, yet again, with luscious lovelies. The tabloids will love this astute business move of his.

Anybody else notice the reference to "The Fourth Way"?

I think if she wants to have a go then good on her, at least she is doing something positive and acting as a positive role model for women, not just parading around as a glamourous 'air-head' as most men percieve beauty pageant winners to be.

After all guys this is a democracy! I would still vote UKIP tho LOL!
