Nigel Farage's Clacton by-election gamble
The State Of ItA furious Nigel Farage has said he will ‘stick two fingers up to the establishment’ by resigning and then winning a by-election in Clacton. Kemi Badenoch has accused him of having a hissy fit and Andy Burnham has said it's a gimmick designed to distract from questions over undeclared gifts.
- Will the Conservatives and Labour field candidates in the Clacton by-election?
- Will a Reform UK victory in Clacton boost Nigel Farage's standing in the rest of the country?
- And can Nigel Farage be suspended after a parliamentary standards investigation even if he wins the by-election?
