John is standing for the Liberal Democrats in East Kilbride...
Quote:
John Loughton (East Kilbride, Strathaven and Lesmahagow): The 22-year-old won a spin-off of TV’s Big Brother dressed as an octopus in 2008.
He appeared in Big Brother, Celebrity Hijack with comedian Matt Lucas, winning the £50,000 first prize.
He is a ‘committed’ fan of X-Factor duo Jedward and claims he is a role model: ‘By appearing on a reality TV show, or standing for Parliament, I can challenge negative stereotypes of young people.’
