Farage wins (again)

Nigel Farage wins 63% of the vote in the Clacton by-election, but skips his own victory speech as security claims collide with police statements. Meanwhile, Count Binface takes second place, and the Parliamentary Standards investigation is officially back on. In this episode of Whitehall Sources, Calum Macdonald, Jo Tanner, and James Nation break down the chaos behind the Clacton result, what it means for Reform UK’s upcoming conference, and how Prime Minister Andy Burnham is handling his first summer crisis. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
