HISTORY

​

After Lord Buckethead's notorious battle with U.S. Armed Forces during the summer of 1984 in the American state of North Carolina, His Lordship decided that the best way to take over the planet was not by physical force but by "normal" politics.  His narrow escape, and subsequent stow-away aboard a transatlantic ship among its cargo of rubbish bins bound for Liverpool, led him serendipitously to Great Britain.

 

Long story short, his innocent tryst with Prime Minister Maggie Thatcher cost him the '87 election when she threatened blackmail.  

 

The intergalactic space lord has also stood against Prime Minister John Major and yet again against Prime Minister Theresa May, losing by only a few tens-of-thousands of votes each time.

 

A couple of years later, the next incarnation of Lord Buckethead marched in London with a million supporters of a People's Vote to resolve the Brexit Crisis.

​

Subsequently, and increasingly so over the past year, His Lordship has received literally thousands of requests to run in the American 2020 election against President Troubled Dump.  A Presidential Exploratory Committee has been formed to look into the viability of this venture while the Dark Lord partakes in a little well-deserved R & R with Lady Buckethead on an undisclosed tropical moon.

​

Most recently, after being paid an emotionally-disturbing, late-night visit by Prime Minister Boris Johnson in a tattered velour bathrobe, Her Majesty The Queen ordered Buckingham Palace on "lock-down" and personally flipped the Royal Bucket Switch, activating the emergency Royal Bucket Signal, to summon the next incarnation of Lord Buckethead.  

 

So...  the planet anxiously awaits...  hopes...  and prays for our semi-benevolent overlord's expedient return during this, one of Britain's darkest hours of need.  You may join the Queen on Twitter @lordbuckethead to voice your personal plea for help.
