@archer_rs He’s gearing up to imitate Trump …Farage is under the microscope, losing ground, he wants to be “proven” right. I’ve said it before, a staged attempt is what’s coming.
Breaking: It has emerged that last year Nigel Farage was offered government-funded security comparable to that provided to Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and senior Cabinet ministers, but reportedly turned it down.
For months, Farage pointed to a lack of state security to justify accepting an undisclosed £5 million gift. More recently, however, his explanation has shifted, with him describing it as an entirely unconditional gift that he could have spent on “Ferraris” if he wished.
That change matters. If the money was given for a specific purpose connected to his role as an MP or political activities, it could have different implications for parliamentary declaration requirements than an unrestricted personal gift.
This situation just keeps getting worse and worse for Farage.
@kelvmackenzie Is it really so long since you were a journalist that you cannot recall a single element of common law contempt, or the risk of prejudicing a trial?
Count Binface has stood in elections for years. Reform voters mostly treated him as harmless fun.
Now he is challenging Nigel Farage in Clacton, some of the same people are suddenly desperate to smear him.
Funny how quickly the joke stopped being funny.

@RupertLowe10 You really are having quite the week for ignoring the murder of children aren't you Rupert? One of Europe's worst acts of terrorism was undertaken by a Norwegian, against his own people

MYTH 1: Refugees must claim asylum in the first safe country they reach.
No such rule exists in the Refugee Convention. The UK Government may prefer it, but political preference and international law are different things.
🚨NEW: Labour, the Conservatives, and the Liberal Democrats are expected to stand down in the Clacton by-election, describing it as a "stunt"
The only confirmed candidates so far are Nigel Farage and Count Binface
Nigel Farage just said he’s the ‘most attacked politician of modern times’.
He’s not only playing the victim card, but completely disrespecting Jo Cox and David Amess who were brutally assassinated.
A truly vile man.
🚨 NEW: Sky News releases information on Nigel Farage's claim they "hounded" his daughter at home
- They approached a property linked to Farage off camera and knocked on the door as part of a broadcast pool operation. The person who answered was an adult who, they later established, was not Farage's daughter
- The journalists identified themselves, but the occupant chose not to engage
- After being informed by a passerby that Farage did not live at the address, they left the area and did not return
@IsabelOakeshott@Nigel_Farage How is it an identical stunt, though?
Andy Burnham stood in a by-election so he could get into Westminster and replace the prime minister.
Nigel Farage is already in Westminster and is calling a byelection to deflect scrutiny over being bankrolled by e.g. a convicted fraudster
