*Lofty Names Running Mate*
BN high flyer Lofty today named Pumpernickel as his running mate for the upcoming presidential elections.
Reaction was muted as his announcement didn't go so far as to explain who or what pumpernickel is.

Having chosen to publicly support Ceb in the current leadership wrangling from very early on, Lofty has escaped the bad publicity of that protracted media inferno and instead enjoyed somewhat of an Indian Summer after being found dead some time last year or something.

With many regular BN members still riding the bone chilling depresso wave™ of Backlash 2011, Lofty's presidential ambitions have been a bright spot in an otherwise grief box of a year for the crew.

With album sales at a point where nobody knows if they're actually a band anymore (down to absolute zero sales in 2011 from a massive one sale in 1997), the BNC have seen numbers dwindle to the point where we'll probably make up shit about Pumpernickel being some lad we know where as it's actually just a rapid word we're into on a short term basis.

BN Crew man about town Stu the Rape Ape is said to be 'feeling fine' about the whole thing.
