Farage said that an awful lot of people have asked him to stand in the election, but he actually meant a lot of awful people.

Why didn’t Reform Party members get a vote on Farage becoming their new leader?
Doesn’t Nigel believe in democracy? pic.twitter.com/HqvbHrQb6R

A message to the people of Clacton.
You should fight him on the beaches.
You should fight him on the High Street.
You should fight him on your doorsteps.
He should never prevail.
Because, you might recall, D Day was all about fighting the dark forces of far-right politics.

Nigel Farage has always been a siren for the Conservative Party.
Singing sweet songs of Brexit salvation to them, he lured the party to row their ship to the jagged rocks of Brexit reality.
This is the stage when the ship breaks apart, they all die, and he keeps singing.

I gather Farage won the Reform leadership with 100% of his vote

The Farage announcement is bad for the Tories, so probably good for Labour, but I still think that extra injection of poison into the British political system is actually bad for all of us.

We look forward to seeing some of this.
I'm glad Farage is standing. It means that he now gets the scrutiny he usually avoids. I think he might well come to regret it.
