In the seaside town of Clacton-on-Sea, Nigel Farage is trying to reclaim his parliamentary seat for Reform UK, after revelations he failed to declare a multi‑million‑dollar gift from a Thai-based British crypto billionaire. Local voters say they want him “taken down a peg,” and mainstream parties have shunned the by‑election as a stunt. Instead, Farage faces Count Binface and other eccentric candidates whose satirical manifestos aim to embarrass both him and the political establishment.
