In 2011, in a Town Council election in St Ives, Cambridgeshire, Lord Toby beat the Liberal Democrat candidate, and was only 2 votes behind the Labour candidate. During the 2013 South Shields by-election campagn, Lord Toby Jug's comments were published in the Guardian [4], The Independent [5], The Daily Mail [6], The Daily Express http://www.express.co.uk/news/weird/396464/Ukip-not-worthy-of-fruitcake-description-says-the-Monster-Raving-Loony-Party, The Huffington Post [7], MSN News [8] and The Sun.

Lord Toby, who has two sons, Jack and Thomas, and has been given odds of 50,000-1 by William Hill that one of his boys will be the first Official Loony Prime Minister.

Lord Toby Jug states that if he is ever elected he will take only half of his MP's salary, giving the rest to charity and the only expenses he would claim for would be for tea bags, as his Lordship is a prolific tea drinker. Lord Toby was good friends with the party's late founder and leader, Screaming Lord Sutch, and often backed him on guitar on stage; indeed Lord Toby even appears in Graham Sharpe's autobiography, 'The Man Who Was Screaming Lord Sutch' published in 2005 on Aurum Books [9]

Under the rules set down by Lord Sutch, any Loony candidate getting elected to high office must leave the party for being far too serious and not Loony enough.

Lord Toby Jug hosts a radio show every Wednesday evening at 22:00 UK time called the The Official Monster Raving Loony Rock 'n' Horror Show on the online radio station www.radiosutch.net [10]

He also runs a website dedicated to activities of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party Eastern Branch - www.officialmonsterravingloonyeast.org [11]
