On 13 and 20 October 2007, and more recently on 14 July 2008 and 11 October 2008, Rainbow George appeared on The Russell Brand Show on Radio 2 in order to publicize his political agenda, inviting Brand to take leadership of the party, (of which Brand was sceptical), and announcing an online petition requiring one million votes in order for the party to become recognized as a serious candidate in future elections.
During his appearance on the show on 14 June 2008, he told Brand that he had placed a bet on space ships appearing at the closing ceremony of the Olympic games in China, and invited him to take a one-third share in the bet, as well as to join him for some 'Boris Dancing' (named after mayor of London Boris Johnson) on Hampstead Heath.

Is not born with him; there is always work,
And tools to work withal, for those who will:
And blessèd are the horny hands of toil!”

“You don’t hit a child when you want him to stop hitting. You don’t yell at a children to get them to stop yelling. Or spit at a child to indicate that he should not spit. Of course, you want children to know how to sympathize with others and to “know how it feels,” but you ... have to show them how to act—not how not to act.”
—Jeannette W. Galambos (20th century)
