... Guess this is anothe example of writing something controversial/daft just to attract publicity for the magazine. ...
It was a vote by readers of the magazine - it has a circulation of 30,000 and 3000 voted. But you could be right, the fact that he was one of the nominees might well have been a deliberate ploy by the magazine to generate publicity.

... saying something controversial just to attract clicks again?
Definitely marmite, people I know post links to Brand as if he is the second coming.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

I used to think Brand was a complete looney, a self obsessed narcissist.
But I've come to the conclusion he actually cares about the subjects he spouts off about.
Still a narcissist though.

I am a world class thinker. It's just the saying and the doing that lets me down.

Would love to know how much money he actually gives to charity and causes. I suspect he talks a good game.

I like brand.
In a world where professing ignorance and pretending to be stupid cements celebrity status its nice to see someone using words of more than one sylable and openly embracing being a pretentious and patronising tosser.
He fights the good fight.
One of his earliest tv appearances was him following the life of the young bnp leader. He fully challenged the lad on his own ground. Well worth watching and a world away from his overt persona he employs now.
Top man imo
