Faragian Farce Day 5: Winning Isn’t Enough Anymore
Why Nigel Farage may still win Clacton, but lose the only contest that really matters.
It appears we now have a date for the Clacton-on-Sea by-election. Tendring Council has announced that the election will be held on the thirteenth of August, which is, by my reckoning, just over a month away. I initially thought it was going to be around the sixth, but another week doesn’t really change the fundamentals. It just gives us another week or so to watch the increasingly surreal political drama that has become the Faragian farce unfolding in public.

Stewart Lee: Move over, Nigel – it’s time for the Bin Supremacy
A comedy writer with a refuse receptacle on his head may be the only thing that stands between Britain and fascism. He’s just the man for the job
The Reform candidate for Makerfield, Robert Kenyon, said women should be denied abortions even if they had been raped by a family member; the Reform MP Sarah Pochin said there were too many black people on television; the Reform candidate for Rayleigh West, Stuart Prior, said white people were the master race and had bigger brains than black people; the Reform candidate for Bootle West, Jay Leslie Cooper, said the Holocaust was a hoax; and Nigel Farage made a wedding speech joke, after a gay man died in a celebrity’s swimming pool, about throwing your fags in the pool. He’s here all week! Try the fish!!

And it is into this fractured landscape that strides the colossus that is Count Binface, who, by absurd association, may throw Reform’s attempt to foist fascism on a public who seem to have forgotten what fascism looks like into sharp relief. Not all heroes wear capes. But Count Binface does. And he wears a bin as well. So that bit doesn’t make sense, sorry.
