Farage vs Binface in Clacton | UK News

from UK News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Nigel Farage is back in the race, facing off in Clacton’s byelection against none other than Count Binface — the satirical candidate whose real name is comedian Jon Harvey. This marks their first direct showdown, with Farage having previously lost to Al Murray in 2015 and now returning to Parliament after a July resignation. Count Binface, known for his quirky electoral history including runs as Lord Buckethead and sharing a ballot with the original in 2019, brings a comedic twist to a field of 34 candidates — including three from the Monster Raving Loony party — as all eyes turn to this bizarre rematch between the man who once promised to quit if he lost and the man who dresses as a bin.
