Is Count Binface really Nigel Farage's biggest threat in Clacton, and has Farage already lost by turning "me against the establishment" into a battle against a bin? Does Binface's manifesto hide serious politics beneath the comedy? Could a joke candidate ever become a serious political force? Alastair and Rory are joined by Count Binface as they answer all these questions and more. __________ Search IG.com to find out more and/or Look for IG in your app store. __________ Instagram: @restispolitics Twitter: @restispolitics Email: therestispolitics@goalhanger.com __________ Social Producer: Celine Charles Video Editor: Josh Smith, Caroline Kaye, James Clayden, Oli Ortega, Lorcan Moullier Assistant Producer: Daisy Alston-Horne Senior Producer: Nicole Maslen Exec Producer: Chris Sawyer General Manager: Tom Whiter Learn more about your ad choices.

Yes, Count Binface DOES rock up to this show! Part 2 of Naomi and Alex doing their LIVE thang with Byline Times and the Lincoln Project, at London's Leicester Square Theatre. For one night only, and with many of you fab Quiet Riot supporters in the audience, they discuss how Trumpism, populism, media capture, disinformation and democratic decay are shaping politics on both sides of the Atlantic. And, being us, we also ask what the fight-back looks like. NB Since this has been recorded in live conditions, the sound quality may be a little more variable than usual. Joining Naomi and Alex on stage are best-selling author and social media force-of-nature Rick Wilson; comedian and queen geek Maya May; Byline Times co-founder and author Peter Jukes; and Byline Times Editor-In-Chief and writer Hardeep Matharu. Oh, and there's that very special guest, intergalactic trashman and universal Farage-baiter, Count Binface, giving us the benefit of his substantial wisdom (and a little scoop as well...) This is a 2-parter – If you haven't listened to the first part it was out yesterday!

De Tweede Kamer zit op zomerreces, dus wijken we uit naar het Verenigd Koninkrijk, en dat doen we met Huub Bellemakers: Nijmegenaar, campagnestrateeg, voormalig prominent bij GroenLinks en vaste klant op de Zwarte Cross. Hij neemt een popcornmoment uit zijn favoriete land mee, want Hongarije wil na Orbán van zijn ceremoniële president af en dacht daarbij even aan schaakgrootmeester Judit Polgár. Stijn kijkt toe hoe burgemeester Carola Schouten haar belofte inlost en van de Euromast abseilt (Rob Jetten haakte af) en Paul verheugt zich op de memoires van Joe Biden. Verder is Keir Starmer opgestapt en heeft het Verenigd Koninkrijk met Andy Burnham een premier die in Manchester zijn eigen 10 Downing Street North opent, inclusief hond die daar gewoon blijft wonen zodat Larry de kat geen nieuwe huisgenoot krijgt. Nigel Farage moet zijn zetel in Clacton verdedigen tegen Count Binface, De Telegraaf rekent uit dat de sociale media van bewindspersonen de belastingbetaler miljoenen kosten, de ECB laat Europa meestemmen over nieuwe eurobiljetten en tot slot roast Trump de pers op het Correspondents' Dinner.Gast: Huub BellemakersHosts: Paul Peeters & Stijn de Vreede▬▬▬▬▬▬ HOOFDSTUKKEN ▬▬▬▬▬▬00:00:00 Intro & aankondiging Huub Bellemakers 00:03:52 Popcornmoment Huub: Hongarije zoekt een ceremoniële president 00:06:59 Popcornmoment Stijn: Carola Schouten abseilt van de Euromast 00:09:42 Popcornmoment Paul: de memoires van Joe Biden 00:15:09 Andy Burnham wordt premier en opent 10 Downing Street North 00:29:36 Nigel Farage en de tussentijdse verkiezing in Clacton 00:41:49 Farage krijgt commentaar tijdens de campagne 00:43:36 Sociale media van ministers kosten miljoenen (De Telegraaf) 00:53:41 Nieuw eurogeld: de ECB laat burgers meestemmen 00:59:50 Correspondents' Dinner: Trump roast de pers ▬▬▬▬▬▬ LUISTER OOK OP ▬▬▬▬▬▬Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Podimo: zoek "Politieke Popcorncast"#PolitiekePopcorncast #Politiek #Podcast #HuubBellemakersSupport the showSteun ons en doneer een bak popcorn (zoet/zout):Volg ons op Twitter 

Nick Luck and Neil Channing here with the latest episode of the insightful political betting podcast, as they turn their attention to the Claction by-election, and wonder whether the Farage furore has been reflected in the markets and whether Count Binface is set for a smaller vote share than received wisdom suggests. Plus, a look at the most least market through the prism of the Burnham Bounce, and why did the Tories briefly go shorter than Reform?

In this Report Richard discusses the Clacton by-election, which Nigel Farage has called after scrutiny of financial gifts he’s received. The left’s main candidate is Count Binface, who sounds like a Doctor Who reject.

In this episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley head to the sunny climes of Clacton-on-Sea to join Nigel Farage on the campaign trail.On home turf, Mr Farage discusses everything from offshore wind turbines and seaside economies to the rising security threats facing politicians on the Right. He hits back at claims that he is purely a campaigner rather than a manager, weighs in on Count Binface, his opponent, and reveals his unique method for keeping Britain tidy.Elsewhere, Camilla and Tim take a spin on the pier rides and speak to Clacton's residents to gauge whether the “Farage factor” still holds strong.

A brand new Prime Minister leaving his previous post, thus triggering a By-Election for the Greater Manchester Mayoralty.Little did we know of the farcical storm that awaited us as Nigel Farage decided that the best way to stop people talking about allegations about his finances was to parade around Clacton talking to a bin.If you wish to contribute to our cause, we have a crowdfunding page to help the Network expand.

Jo and Adam unpack the extraordinary Clacton by-election, where Count Binface takes on Nigel Farage after the Reform leader resigns and re-contests his own seat, calling the election a referendum on his political credibility. As the campaign descends into surreal farce, we ask whether Count Binface is effective satire, and what happens when satire becomes an active participant in democracy?Along the way, Jo and Adam discuss French satirical magazines, the comic response to Andy Burnham's rise to the premiership, and Burnham's own use of humour on social media.And Adam shares his concept for a new spin-off solo podcast for Jo called "This Means Waugh" all about why you are wrong about things.

Nigel Farage zou giften hebben aangenomen van een veroordeelde crypto-investeerder zonder die op te geven. Hij stapte op, riep meteen een tussentijdse verkiezing uit en neemt het op 23 augustus in Clacton-on-Sea op tegen de satirisch kandidaat Count Binface. Welke gevolgen heeft dit schandaal op de populariteit van Farage? En In de VS zijn de midterms over honderd dagen, de afbrokkelende steun voor Israël is een grote splijtzwam in de Democratische partij. In Bureau Buitenland Zomertafel bespreekt VK-correspondent Lia van Bekhoven waarom een corruptieonderzoek naar Farage tot een tussentijdse verkiezing leidt, en Amerikakenner Casper Thomas over hoe diep de Israël-kloof binnen de Democratische Partij is. Presentatie: Nadia Moussaïd

Nigel Farage faces a stern challenge in a Clacton byelection from an alien space warrior with a bin on his head and a manifesto packed with nonsense. New Zealand has its own history of joke political parties (most famously the McGillicuddy Serious Party) but the satirical larder looks bare today. Ben Uffindell, who led the Civilian Party to admirable failure in 2014, joins Toby to talk about the role of silly and satirical parties in democracy, where he went wrong, where he went right, and whether a return is on the cards in 2026.Plus: In praise of cinema splendour at the Civic at film festival time in Auckland.At Large with Toby Manhire is produced by Te Aihe Butler, Jin Fellet and The Spinoff.

Ukrainian deep-strike drones are acting as mechanical Bobbit worms—buried deep in the operational rear, snapping Russia's supply chains in half. In Episode 2.47, we wade through the ashes of burning logistics hubs, examine the return of Soviet-style digital price-fixing, and dissect the escalating panic inside the Kremlin elite. From 154 destroyed energy nodes in occupied Crimea to the Ryazan Wildberries double-tap, the "careful war" is bleeding out. Meanwhile, State Duma Speaker Volodin orders the public "not to vibrate" while the FSB hunts imaginary New Zealand spies in Siberia. We cap it all off with the downfall of Andrea Pirlo and our formal endorsement of Count Binface for the Clacton by-election.Become our patron:https://www.patreon.com/theeasternborderMerch store + another option for memberships:https://theeasternborder-shop.fourthwall.com/Follow what's going on here in the very border of Eastern Europe:https://bsky.app/profile/theeasternborder.lvDownload all episodes for free on our website; pictures accompanying certain episodes can be found there as well!http://theeasternborder.lv/Car4Ukraine Eastern Border Summer Campaign!https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/summer-sunshine-trucks-2026-eastern-borderYouTube - as this one has visuals:https://youtu.be/_ChUkgwosqQSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

Nigel Farage launched a “people versus establishment” by-election in Clacton – but which side is he REALLY on? The Reform leader claims to speak for ordinary people but the privately-educated former banker has pocketed over £2 million in outside earnings since becoming an MP, accepted a £5m gift from a crypto mega-donor and has taken more cash from “Posh” George Cottrell – a convicted fraudster. If that's not the establishment, what is?

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an t-ochtú lá déag de mhí Iúil. Is mise Eoin Ó Seachnasaigh.I ndiaidh cúpla seachtain dhrámatúil i bpolaitíocht na Breataine, tá an Feisire Parlaiminte nuathofa do Makerfield, Andy Burnham,ar tí seilbh a ghlacadh ar Uimhir 10 Sráid Downing. Cé go bhfuair Burnham, a bheidh ina sheachtú Príomh-Aire ar an mBreatain le deich mbliana anuas, ainmniúcháin ó 322 de na 403 Feisire de chuid Pháirtí an Lucht Oibre, tá dúshláin go leor roimhe anois,agus gan ach trí bliana fágtha den téarma rialtais. Beidh na fadhbanna tromchúiseacha ba chúis le titim a réamhtheachtaí, Sir Keir Starmer, faoi chúram iar-Mhéara Mhanchain go luath, lena n-áirítear míshástacht an phobail leis an rialtas, na géarchéimeanna leanúnacha sa Mheánoirthear agus an brú atá ag teacht ó ghrúpaí éagsúla chun caiteachas cosanta a mhéadú gan cáin ioncaim a ardú. Ní hé Burnham an t-aon pholaiteoir mór le rá sa Bhreatain atá i gcruachás faoi láthair, áfach. Tá ceisteanna crua le freagairt ag a phríomh-iomaitheoir, Nigel Farage, ceannaire an pháirtí Reform UK, tar éis teacht chun solais gur ghlac Farage le cúig mhilliún punt ó bhilliúnaí criptea-airgeadra. I measc ábhair imní gur sciúradh airgid a bhí ar siúl, tá an síntiús á fhiosrú anois ag an National Crime Agency, agus idir an dá linn, tá Farage tar éis éirí as a phost mar Fheisire Parlaiminte do Clacton, agus é ag súil go léireodh fothoghchán úr tacaíocht an phobail dó féin agus don mhaíomh gur íospartach den chóras oifigiúil é. Mar fhreagra, tá sé fógartha ag Páirtí an LuchtOibre, na Coimeádaigh, na Glasaigh agus na Daonlathaithe Liobrálacha nach mbeidh siad ag seasamh san fhothoghchán, agus is cosúil gurb é cuairteoir ón spás amuigh, darb ainm Count Binface, a bheidh ina phríomh-iomaitheoir do Farage.Dea-scéala do lucht leanúna an cheoil Éireannaigh a nascann an traidisiún leis an turgnamh, tá Trá Pháidín ar ais le halbam nua, go gairid i ndiaidh An A24 ón mbliain seo caite. Tarraingíonn an t-albam nua, Cloch ‘s Claí, inspioráid ón úrscéal aoiriúil cáiliúil le Myles na gCopaleen, An Béal Bocht, agus pléann sé an gaol idir an Ghaeltacht agus an chuid eile d'Éirinn chomhaimseartha, agus béim ar leith á cur ar chúrsaí tithíochta, ar fhadhbannaeacnamaíocha agus ar cheisteanna féiniúlachta. Is é seo an chéad eisiúint ag an ngrúpa ar an lipéad World of Echo, atá lonnaithe i Londain, agus a dhíolann ceirníní ó cheoltóirí ceannródaíocha ar fud an domhain, agus mar thoradh air sin,tabharfaidh sé deis do lucht éisteachta idirnáisiúnta aithne a chur ar an dream as Conamara. Tar éis 102 cluiche agus breis agus mí a bhí lán de scileanna iontacha, botúin thubaisteacha, taispeántais laochúla, moilleanna de bharr VAR agus conspóid pholaitiúil, tá Corn an Domhain ag druidim chun deiridh. Cé gurb iad an Spáinn rogha na coitiantachta, tar éis dóibh an Fhrainc a shárú in Dallas oíche Dé Máirt, le cúil ó Mikel Oyarzabal agus Pedro Porro, beidh neart le déanamh acu chun an lámh in uachtar a fháil ar an Airgintín, atá ag filleadh ar an gcluiche ceannais mar seaimpíní gan chloí tar éis bua cáiliúil i gcoinne Shasana ag Staid Atlanta oíche Dé Céadaoin. Níos cóngaraí don bhaile, ar lá spóirt lán le haicsean, fillfidh Gaillimh ar Chluiche Ceannais Iomána na hÉireann den chéad uair ó 2018, agus iad ag tabhairt aghaidh ar fhoireann Luimnigh atá sa tóir ar a séú theideal in ocht mbliana. Beidh Gaillimh ag súil go mbeidh an tosaí Rory Burke i mbarr a réime arís tar éis an gortú a d'fhulaing sé i gcluiche ceannais Laighean, agus tá faoiseamh ar fhir na Mumhan go bhfuil a gcaptaen, Cian Lynch, réidh le himirt tar éis dó a bheith as láthair ón mbua ar Chontae an Chláir. *GLUAISréamhtheachtaí - predecessorspás amuigh - outer spaceturgnamh - experimentaoiriúil - satiricalrogha na coitiantachta - the favourite to win i mbarr a réime - at the top of his game

Even leek het een slimme tactische zet: Nigel Farage stapte op als lid van het Lagerhuis en forceerde zo nieuwe verkiezingen voor zijn zetel, waaraan hij opnieuw deelneemt. De leider van Reform staat onder grote politieke druk: een kamercommissie doet onderzoek naar miljoenengiften die Farage niet heeft gemeld. Door tussentijdse verkiezingen af te dwingen wilde Farage het narratief weer in handen krijgen: het volk (ditmaal in Clacton) zou wel uitmaken of hij schuldig was, niet die kamercommissie, de pers of de rest van het establishment. Het liep anders. Geen van de andere partijen doet mee aan de tussentijdse verkiezingen. De enige andere kandidaat voor de zetel van Farage is Count Binface, een satiricus met een cape en een prullenbak op zijn hoofd. Ook in deze aflevering Niet schrikken, maar we gaan het over voetbal hebben. Niet over de sport, niet over uitslagen of voorbeschouwingen, maar wel wat het met Engeland doet nu hun voetbalploeg in de halve finale van het Wereldkampioenschap staat. Over Van Bekhovens Britten In van Bekhovens Britten praten Lia van Bekhoven en Connor Clerx elke week over de grootste nieuwsonderwerpen en de belangrijkste ontwikkelingen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Van Brexit naar binnenlandse politiek, van de Royals tot de tabloids. Waarom fascineert het VK Nederlanders meer dan zo veel andere Europese landen? Welke rol speelt het vooralsnog Verenigd Koninkrijk in Europa, nu het woord Brexit uit het Britse leven lijkt verbannen, maar de gevolgen van de beslissing om uit de EU te stappen iedere dag duidelijker worden? De Britse monarchie, en daarmee de staat, staat voor grote veranderingen na de dood van Queen Elisabeth en de kroning van haar zoon Charles. De populariteit van het Koningshuis staat op een dieptepunt. Hoe verandert de Britse monarchie onder koning Charles, en welke gevolgen heeft dat voor de Gemenebest? In Van Bekhovens Britten analyseren Lia en Connor een Koninkrijk met tanende welvaart, invloed en macht. De Conservatieve Partij leverde veertien jaar op rij de premier, maar nu heeft Labour onder Keir Starmer de teugels in handen. Hoe ziet het VK er onder Keir Starmer uit? En hoe gaan de ‘gewone’ Britten, voor zover die bestaan, daar mee om? Al deze vragen en meer komen aan bod in Van Bekhovens Britten. Een kritische blik op het Verenigd Koninkrijk, waar het een race tussen Noord-Ierland en Schotland lijkt te worden wie zich het eerst af kan scheiden van het VK. Hoe lang blijft het Koninkrijk verenigd? Na ruim 45 jaar onder de Britten heeft Lia van Bekhoven een unieke kijk op het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Als inwoner, maar zeker geen anglofiel, heeft ze een scherpe blik op het nieuws, de politiek, de monarchie en het dagelijkse leven aan de overkant van de Noordzee. Elke woensdag krijg je een nieuwe podcast over het leven van Van Bekhovens Britten in je podcastapp. Scherpe analyses, diepgang waar op de radio geen tijd voor is en een flinke portie humor. Abonneer en mis geen aflevering. Over Lia Lia van Bekhoven is correspondent Verenigd Koninkrijk voor onder andere BNR Nieuwsradio, VRT, Knack en Elsevier en is regelmatig in talkshows te zien als duider van het nieuws uit het VK.

Well folks, it's a week of unprecedented political shifts and fast-moving news. This week, Lesley and Fraser digest a historic transition as Keir Starmer departs and Andy Burnham takes over as the new Prime Minister. We unpack the massive policy choices landing immediately on the new PM's desk—from splitting the Treasury to making defining calls on North Sea energy.Meanwhile, Reform UK launches a bizarre, hostile bid to criminalize the Scots Gaelic language in election materials, Nigel Farage braces for a resumed standards committee investigation in Clacton, and fresh historic accounts stir up the debate on independent campaign funds. Finally, we reflect on the tragic murder of Anne Widdecombe, the toxic rush of social media narratives, and why the simple, civil connections of community—and a bit of no-nonsense Scottish gardening—keep us grounded.1.

Listeners! Thanks for your patience! I've been sick and Jack's been distracted but you can't keep a good bitch down and we are back with a news ep to keep you going. Up first we look at the AI slop that is coming from Indonesia and elsewhere and ask - are they actually being paid by dark money or just making money from clicks? In Idaho a woman is charged with the murder of her two children after they died in her care and she did a classic antivax PR tour faciliated by RFK Jr.'s former organisation Children's Health Defence. It's gross. And of course we have to laugh at Nigel who though he was so clever to call a byelection to make a big song and dance about how victimised he is for being held to account for taking a shitload of money for dubious reasons. Now that idiot has to argue with a bin. But - a lot of other egomaniacs are getting involved and may just ruin the funniest thing ever. In SovCits there is a revelation on Rod but a classic case of pointless stupidity in a courtroom where something as simple as probate turned into a witchhunt. A literal witchhunt. Babet is an idiot but in one post, I can't entirely disagree. But I also don't disagree because, as usual, he can't just be normal. Enjoy!

Marine Le Pen y Nigel Farage comparten en estos momentos algo más que su condición de líderes de sendos partidos de derecha identitaria. Ambos han decidido transformar sus problemas judiciales en una prolongada campaña electoral. Cada uno de ellos a su manera y siguiendo su propio estilo. Los dos se presentan a unas elecciones que ellos mismos han rebautizado como referéndums sobre sí mismos y sobre su propia honradez, apelando así a un tribunal mucho más benévolo que el de los jueces, el de sus propios simpatizantes. En el caso de Le Pen un tribunal francés ha confirmado su condena por malversación de fondos del Parlamento Europeo, un desvío que se prolongó durante más de once años y que acabó destinado a gastos ordinarios de la Agrupación Nacional. Lo curioso aquí es la sentencia en sí misma. Los mismos jueces que han ratificado la malversación han levantado la inhabilitación que la dejaba fuera de las presidenciales de 2027. La reducen a quince meses ya cumplidos, pero confirman la sentencia de tres años de prisión, dos de ellos en suspenso y el tercero con una pulsera de vigilancia. Esa misma noche Le Pen recurrió ante el Supremo y proclamó su candidatura por televisión. Su recurso le libra de la pulsera electrónica hasta enero. Es la favorita para las elecciones presidenciales, que se celebrarán a dos vueltas entre abril y mayo. No tiene rivales de peso y Macron no podrá presentarse ya que ha agotado los dos mandatos que fija la ley. Al otro lado del canal de la Mancha Nigel Farage está ensayando una jugada parecida. Hace unos días renunció a su escaño por Clacton para volver a presentarse por la misma circunscripción, adelantándose así a una investigación parlamentaria por un pago de cinco millones de libras que recibió de un multimillonario de las criptomonedas. Farage no niega haber recibido el dinero, asegura que fue un regalo personal sin condiciones. El resto de partidos ha decidido no presentar candidato, de modo que se medirá contra figuras estrafalarias como Count Binface y el Monster Raving Loony Party. Ganará casi con toda seguridad, pero será una victoria pírrica porque las preguntas sobre esa donación seguirán ahí. Pero le servirá para recobrar el foco público que últimamente ha perdido por la crisis dentro del laborismo. El método no es nuevo. Lo inventó Silvio Berlusconi hace tres décadas. Berlusconi convirtió la persecución judicial en bandera y desafió una y otra vez a los jueces italianos. De él bebe hoy media política occidental, empezando por Donald Trump y terminando por Pedro Sánchez, ambos con sus propios enredos legales y ambos decididos a batirse contra los jueces. El mensaje viaja bien porque es idéntico en todas partes. La justicia no juzga, persigue, y el acusado se transforma así en algo parecido a un preso político. Queda por ver si el truco funciona en el Reino Unido y Francia. En el Reino Unido las investigaciones parlamentarias derribaron en el pasado a Boris Johnson por sus fiestas durante la pandemia. En Francia la confianza popular en los jueces sigue siendo muy alta. Pero la desafección hacia los partidos tradicionales abre una grieta por la que se cuelan este tipo de tácticas populistas. Cuanto más pleitos tienen, más creíble resulta el relato de la persecución. Ninguno de los dos habrá resuelto su problema judicial, en el mejor de los casos solo lo habrán sepultado bajo una montaña de votos.

Carl, Luca, and Firas discuss the stupidity of the Clacton by-election, how our politics are corrupt, and Japan's food xenophobia.

Nigel Farage wanted a “people vs. the establishment” by-election but it quickly turned into “man vs. bin”. Every major rival has refused to run against him in Clacton, leaving the Reform leader's only real opponent as the man with a trash can on his head, Count Binface. Is this one humiliation too many for the frog-faced fraud? Plus, Farage may be the front-man but the loudest and most extreme voice behind him is Zia Yusuf. How did the one-time left-winger become Reform's self-styled “Shadow Home Secretary”? Expert on the far-right Daniel Trilling explains all.

For this week's Edition, Lara Prendergast is joined by The Spectator's political editor Tim Shipman, deputy editor of the US edition Gus Carter and the Mail on Sunday's restaurant critic Tom Parker Bowles.This week: Nigel Farage's greatest gamble. After resigning as MP for Clacton to trigger a by-election, Farage has tried to turn questions over his finances into a referendum on the establishment. Tim explains why the move may already have backfired, with the main parties refusing to stand against him and leaving him to spend the summer ‘arguing with a bin'. But he also argues that Farage is returning to what he does best: insurgency, grievance and campaigning against the political class. Has he reclaimed the narrative – or retreated from the idea of becoming prime minister?Also: can Andy Burnham export the Manchester model to the rest of Britain? As the incoming prime minister prepares for Downing Street, Gus looks at the property developers behind Manchester's rise.Plus: Tom Parker Bowles on the crisis in British hospitality, why pubs matter and what the government keeps getting wrong about restaurants.Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Oscar Edmondson.

President Trump has threatened to hit Iran 'hard" again after declaring the ceasefire agreed three weeks ago 'over'. Also: Nigel Farage defends his decision to trigger a by-election in his Clacton constituency. And the British wildcard, Arthur Fery, triumphs at Wimbledon.

Today Nigel Farage resigns as an MP, triggering a by-election in Clacton which he says he plans to stand in. He is currently facing an ongoing parliamentary standards investigation into whether he should have declared a £5 million gift he received from the cryptocurrency billionaire Christopher Harborne.Making the announcement in a statement streamed online, Farage said that he had done “nothing wrong” and that he needed the money to pay for security. He accused Sky News of harassing his family and said that standards regulations had been weaponised by the “establishment.” Calling the by-election “people versus the establishment”, Mr Farage said “the people of Clacton should be the judges of my actions.”Adam, Alex and Chris unpack what the move might mean.

Nigel Farage has announced his resignation as the MP for Clacton, triggering a byelection in which he intends to stand as a candidate. The Reform UK leader is under scrutiny over his finances, with two investigations by the parliamentary standards watchdog over undeclared gifts. During a 15-minute press conference, he accused the media of a ‘pile-on' over his personal finances, and harassment of his family. He said his decision was part of ‘sticking two fingers up at the establishment' and would prove the public want him to stay on as an MP.

Nigel Farage has resigned as an MP to force a by-election in Clacton, where he intends to stand again.It comes as scrutiny mounts over Reform UK's funding, the £5 million gift Farage received from the businessman Christopher Harborne and his association with the convicted criminal George Cottrell. So rather than wait for a ruling from the parliamentary standards commissioner, Farage will be out on the doorsteps in Clacton, fighting what he is branding a ‘people vs the establishment' referendum. It is a risky strategy, but one that plays to Farage's strengths as a campaigner. Will Labour and the Tories call his bluff and leave him with egg on his face? Or should we prepare for the by-election of the ages?Noa Hoffman discusses the story with James Heale and William Atkinson.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

In a whingeing speech, teed up hours in advance, Farage triggered a by-election in Clacton and says he's determined to win it back. Is this a genuine appeal to voters or just a stunt to take the heat off the sleaze inquiry?
