The UK's version of Trump, well our Poundland version of
Trump, Nigel Farage, having been caught taking a £5
million bung from a crypto billionaire, and thus
potentially breaching parliamentary rules, resulting in
an investigation that could lead to him being suspended
from parliament, has done the honourable thing and
resigned as an MP.
Except, he has decided to stand in the by-election his
resignation has triggered. Which if he wins will
reinstate the investigation into whether he has breached
the rules.
So the other main parties, seeing this for what it is, an
attempt to stop having to answer questions about his
bung, and further bungs from a convicted money launderer,
which are getting him angrier and angrier in interviews,
have decided to not field a candidate.
So his only opponent will be our resident comedy
candidate Count Binface.
A sitting MP resigns voluntarily, decides to run as the
candidate in the by-election he has just triggered, all
other major parties refuse to field a candidate, and his
only opponent is Count Binface.
Politics in the UK.
