Charlotte Church, who has become a persistent voice for the political left in recent years, has said that Britain has "given the reigns to the bogey men".

The former opera singer, who issued a passionate anti-Tory plea before Britain went to the polls, argued that Britain's vote for the Conservatives was a response to "fear".

Church also tweeted a picture of a puppet of David Cameron, calling him a "d**khead".

Writing on her website prior to the vote, Church urged her followers to vote Labour, and argued that Cameron ignored pressing issues such as the poverty gap and the power of the media.

Getty Images General Election 2015: The alternative power list Robin Grey – aka David Cameron’s favourite busker In April, as David Cameron strolled through Alnwick, Northumberland, a ukulele-playing man who told the Prime Minister to "f*** off back to Eton".



That ukulele player was Robin Grey. He told The Independent: "I started singing it ('f*** off back to Eton') [and] I was like, that's a bit crass, I thought I could do better than that.

Very little actually came out of the debate – apart from Farage spilling a drink down his slacks – but the couple got on with him like a house on fire.



While the couple never expressed their political allegiances, they managed to humanise Farage even more, and we can't exactly see them voting Green at the polls.

Times columnist Moran constantly writes thought-provoking articles about women and being working class.

"Multi-national companies are paying less tax than ever before, whilst the NHS has already been carved up and is primed to be sold off. The trickle-down economics that we have unwillingly propped up since the 60s is so far from functioning as to make it farcical."
