The biggest practical obstacle, other than getting elected, is the dress code for the house of commons which disallows military uniform, disallows face covering (while voting), and requires smart business attire. You could argue that he might be in violation of all three!

The name isn't really that much of a problem.

To be fair, we really don't know what counts as smart business attire on Sigma IX.
I thought you were making a reference to Six Sigma and their distinguished Black Belts. Like, who knows what they call themselves today?

My apologies to the beautiful people of Recyclon for the unflattering comparison.

Or military uniform, for that matter.

I know you are explaining in earnest but the way you ended and formatted it is sooo (un?)intentionally funny. Like, of all the stunts Binface is pulling, the name is the least legitimate of concerns.

Kinda like what they say about the poor people of Clacton having to choose between a joke trash candidate and Count Binface.

What's this type of makes-you-do-double-take, got-me-in-the-first-half-ngl humor called other than just British?

His face isn't covered, his face is a bin. I would've thought the whole "Count Binface" made that pretty clear...
