Small children dress as politicians, hilariously parody UK politics

UK party election broadcasts are normally nightmarishly dull, but you've got to hand it to the Green Party for the video above -- they've really gone the extra mile.

In "the not so secret life of 5-year-old politicians," key figures are portrayed by an excitable collection of small children. Little Boris Johnson rides around on his tricycle before getting into an argument with a mini briefcase-wielding George Osborne; the London mayoral candidates argue about houses in a sandpit; a tiny, glum-looking Tim Farron talks about how everything is Nick Clegg's fault.

Picking a favourite is a tricky choice, but if pressed we'd probably go for either miniature Jeremy Corbyn in his oversized suit or miniature Teresa May "getting to know a few non-EU citizens."
