Summary
Nigel Farage, pictured during his 3am victory speech, won the Clacton by-election after being forced to defend his seat against a string of comedy candidates led by Count Binface The then Tory shadow home secretary David Davis tried a comparable trick in 2008 and was similarly left flapping in the wind. Most prominently, there was the liberal media’s willing embrace of runner-up Count Binface. Had the £5m not been revealed by the media, Clacton and the nation at large might have remained in ignorance of the facts.
Furthermore, For all their great virtues, it was never the job of the people of Clacton, or anywhere else, to adjudicate whether Mr Farage broke the parliamentary rules , any more than they could say if, for example, a parking ticket he’d been given was lawful. Andy Burnham, let’s remember, has yet to face any proper scrutiny. By comparison, Tory leader Kemi Badenoch is growing in political stature day by day, and her party is stronger than it has been in years.
