Have I enough cheek?

Hmmm.
I have (mistakenly, I take it) been invited to a big party at a politician's house, that he's throwing for all his campaign workers for helping to get him elected.
I'm debating whether to just turn up even though I was never in his team of campaigners, and didn't do a damn thing to get him elected. 
It might be a laugh...
I wonder how much free drink I could cadge before they call the police? 
Should I prepare a speech, thanking campaign workers, fundraisers etc, and deliver it as if I'm some kind of party chairman, just to see what happens?
Decisions, decisions...

Go.
Eat and drink to your heart's content.
Do not, under any circumstances, let them get your name, address, email address, etc. If they do, you'll be getting circulars and spam ad infinitum

Absolutely! it'd be a blast! - make the speach with as many spurious referneces into it as possible.... just to be astonished to the level people will still believe it all!

If I were you, I'd go, it sounds like a great do. Why are you expected to speak? You could just make like a wallflower or pretend to be shy, or better still, take a really good-looking plus-one and no-one will notice you at all
