    but sad ending....
    Personal life. Sutch was friends with, and at one time lived at the house of, Cynthia Payne. He had a history of depression, and killed himself by hanging on 16 June 1999 at his late mother's house.

    Screaming Lord Sutch, who has committed suicide aged 58, was an outsider, shaped by postwar poverty, who achieved celebrity in the early 1960s, and fame in the Thatcher era as founder and frontman of the Official Monster Raving Loony party. When his mother was asked about her son and his exploits, she explained that it was, after all, just an act, indeed that his whole life was just an act.

    Sutch ran for parliament 39 times, first as the National Teenage party candidate in the 1963 Stratford-on-Avon byelection that followed the Profumo scandal. The narrowly victorious Conservative, Angus Maude, treated him, Sutch recalled, like "vermin from another planet". In the 1966 general election he fought Prime Minister Harold Wilson in Huyton and picked up 585 votes. Four years later, he ran in Westminster as the Young Ideas party candidate, and in 1974 for the Go To Blazes party in Stafford and Stone.
