John "Tharg The Magnificent" Redwood is the member of parliament for Wokingham, England and indeed the only extraterrestrial member of that august body. He rose to prominence in the minds of the British public when he challenged John Major for leadership of the Conservative Party in 1995 but has since shrunk back into deserved obscurity. Redwood was also known as Tharg the Magnificent on his homeworld of Vulcan, but this title is now only honorary, as Vulcan was tragically obliterated for firm-but-fair business reasons. Redwood has described the obliteration of his home world as "jolly good."

  • John "Tharg The Magnificent" Redwood is the member of parliament for Wokingham, England and indeed the only extraterrestrial member of that august body. He rose to prominence in the minds of the British public when he challenged John Major for leadership of the Conservative Party in 1995 but has since shrunk back into deserved obscurity. Redwood was also known as Tharg the Magnificent on his homeworld of Vulcan, but this title is now only honorary, as Vulcan was tragically obliterated for firm-but-fair business reasons. Redwood has described the obliteration of his home world as "jolly good." After months of rumours that Redwood was frequently turning up at his office dressed as a Roman Centurion, Conservative leader David Cameron stood by Redwood, saying that the Conservatives were "proud to have a member of Britain's insane community serving as a Member of Parliament on our benches." During 2009, he went off-line during the British digital TV switchover.
