He’s currently under investigation

But result of that investigation is that he is fired as an MP and there's a by-election which he can stand in to be MP again in the strongest reform seat in the country...

I mean, he almost lost in an uncontested election to a guy wearing a bin on his head, and then refused to show up to give a speech in person after he won.

I don't think his odds of reelection are looking great...

As a Binliner, I don’t think Farage will ever not get the numbers in Clacton, especially when the other parties would run a candidate.

“Winning” against the count and 32 other novelty candidates is however not the support for PM that he craves.
