Farage has re-won his seat, receiving more than 22,000 votes in Clacton, on the Essex coast.
Binface had his highest share yet with 9,455 votes
Reminds me of the Obama Senate run in '04, where he was running against Allen Keyes and the people who voted for Keyes were used to define the term “Crazification Factor”
Really speaks to the state of British politics when you can lose an election by 30-pts and get excited about it.
Incidentally, reading speeches from George Bush Jr in 2026 really recalibrates my expectations for the country long-term. So easy to forget that this guy was an utterly brainless, dry-drunk, failson bigot, after his reputation got glazed through the Obama/Trump Era.
For added context, Keyes wasn’t from the state. The republican party brought him in just to run against Obama. Like they wanted to say they had a black guy too.
That’s it? Damn. Once again the English prove they are the worst people on the face of the planet.
As far as I know Count Binface is English (or from one of their colony in outer space), therefore your argument is invalid.
Clacton is very full of old retired people with conservative views. 25% of the vote in Clacton is excellent considering.

Way to out yourself as being a clueless bell end.
The point wasn’t to win. The point of any novelty or joke candidate is never to win.
(Also seriously, judging 57 million people from the actions of a single constituency. How Yankee)
