Mad Cow-Girl

Rosalyn Warner (1961 in Harwich, Essex – 4 July 2010 in Sunderland),[1][2] better known as Mad Cow-Girl, was a British nurse who contested several elections as a candidate for the Official Monster Raving Loony Party.

Warner's involvement with the OMRLP began in 1997 when she met Screaming Lord Sutch, and she subsequently stood as a candidate in both local and general elections from 2004 to 2008.

According to one journalist: "she triumphantly succeeded in maintaining the party's fine tradition of making an absolute mockery of the proceedings, spoiling the perfect picture of democracy at its noblest moment".
