I mean, sucks that they won but having that many votes go to binface does sour his whole plan. This was meant to be some sort of victory lap for Farage, but now its just sad.
This is also a really big stepping point for independents. Almost 30% of the votes for an effective independent shows that while some people may have considered Binface a joke, it’s pretty clear that his claims and asks are important to people. And those are claims and asks that other potential candidates are going to need to address if they want those voters.

Good jorb!
Who in their right mind voted for Farage!?!
He has a certain charisma to a subset of people. It’s a similar effect as trump in the US, only to a smaller subset of idiots.
The things he claims don’t hold up to scrutiny, but that doesn’t matter to some. They just hear the surface promises, and don’t think deeper.
People who are fucked by the status quo and wants something different… Erhn wait. Binface was on the ballot?
Yeah apparently 62% of Clacton just hates anything not British, so they can’t vote for a spacefaring warlord
I suspect that a lot of it has to do with paid votes and/or manipulation.
It makes no sense that people ALWAYS vote against their own interests.
This is more likely.
He lost a third of his votes to a trash can from space.
I do believe that in England, you guys call that ‘bloody embarrassing.’

So Andy Burnham is going to have to get the hand dryer in the Crown and Treaty pub moved?
If he does this he’ll be a fucking legend.
Imagine the PR show if Binface, Burnham and the manager of the Crown and Treaty Pub got that done
No idea what you mean lol enlighten me
It’s a core issue of the Binface Party.
Good point! Its an improvement over the last time binface ran I hear. Perhaps next time.
I’m glad he won, can’t shake the investigation now
