What do Nigel Farage’s Clacton constituents think about his resignation? The Independent headed to the seaside resort town on Wednesday (8 July), 24 hours after Mr Farage announced his resignation, saying he would fight the by-election to give voters a chance to “stick two fingers up to the establishment”. It comes amid a row over his financial support, after the Sunday Times reported Mr Farage had not declared benefits and questions were raised about a £5m gift. Reform UK has denied its leader breached the code of conduct, and Mr Farage insists he has “done nothing wrong”. Satirical candidate Count Binface appears to be Mr Farage’s main electoral rival in the by-election as Labour, the Conservatives, the Liberal Democrats, the Green Party and Restore Britain are refusing to stand candidates.
