Like Binface himself said:
Whatever the result of the by-election, either Farage loses the election to a bin and that’s not great, or he wins against a bin and that’s not much better. Either way, Farage has already lost.
Pity though, I really hoped Binface would win that one…
Non-brit here. Can someone explain that move? He gets investigated and resigns, so the investigation stops. He then triggers an election that he wins, so the investigation is back on? What did he get from that besides attention?
Apparently his team told the dumbdumb that resigning would end the investigation, but didn’t know that regaining his seat would reopen it. Whoopsies.
Not even that, the investigation could continue regardless of him being an MP, it’s more that the consequences of a parliamentary investigation are limited to parliament, so there’s little point if he’s no longer an MP (except they could prevent him from ever being an MP again). And the police can also investigate separately, but they traditionally hold off until a parliamentary investigation is completed.
It delayed the investigation by a number of weeks, allowing him, or someone else, to hide something before it got investigated.
I suspect attention is fuel for this particular knobhead.
It’s a Trump/Orban/Milei move to try and convince voters that he’s being picked on by the Establishment. Sadly, for many it works.
It doesn’t make anymore sense to a brit
We need to get him out of that Clacton seat!
If there’s a second by-election, then there could be some serious contenders up against Farage.
Like Binface!
