Monster Raving Loony Party to stand candidate in Clacton by-election
The Green Party say they will not stand in the Clacton by-election either. Zack Polanski: "This is a desperate stunt from a desperate politician whose lifetime of grifting is finally catching up with him. Greens will play no part in his political circus"
Adam Bienkov256This leaves it as a straight fight between Farage and Count Binface
Somersetchris38Will Nigel Farage now not stand down as an MP because he is too scared to face Count Binface in a by-election?
Randy Herman32England is a very strange country where a major politician resigns his seat (somehow this is a power move) and everyone else responds by refusing to run against him (this is also a power move)
Bremain in Spain31Good to have that confirmed. The right choice. Now everyone who doesn’t want to vote for Farage/Reform, we can all get behind @countbinface.bsky.social
Nelly Probin30So it's frogface v binface in a straight run off. 🤣
John Berry he/him24Remarkable achievement by Farage to unite all the other major parties in the country against him.
Adrian Littlejohn32Well said @zackpolanski.bsky.social , well done @greenparty.org.uk ! Just when I thought Farage couldn't get any more ridiculous...
Bremain in Spain13The news we were waiting for. 👏
Will12farage handing every other party a free hit at him and making himself look like a prat during a scandal that might topple his political career, you love to see it
kolokythaki7non zero chance of farage trying to find a way to un-resign now. this will be humiliating for him and he can't handle that
Lore By Night6Nigel Farage, leader of the Reform/Nazi Party is being investigated for taking a £5m "donation" by a crypto millionaire in Thailand for campaigning for Brexit. Farage tries the Trump tactic of changing the narrative and call for a by-election. None of the parties are standing...except Count Binface
Chris F6Good. No unity candidates, no ‘big’ party opposition. Let him stand on a stage next to a bloke dressed as a dolphin and a bin-headed alien overlord and look like the fucking mug he is. And then let him get dragged over the coals by the Parliamentary Standards Authority.
Citizen Snippy △5Comedy! Facing investigations, Nigel Farage steps down and triggers an election. He pitches it as a serious fight against the establishment, let the people decide my guilt etc. But all the main parties refused to run. So now Nigel's big battle is with this intergalactic fella - Count Binface 😂
Bex Luther5Absolutely set up for a Monty Brewster vote for None of the Above, inheritance financed election campaign
David Mohring5🎶Now here's a little story To tell it is a must About an unsung hero That moves away Farage Some MP make a fortune Others grift a mint This old bin don't earn much In fact he's flippin' skint Oh, vote for Count Binface! He wears a dust-bin hat With simple Manifesto he'll quash Farage flat🎶🗑️ #ukpol
David Stubbs5Glad. Now thinking Binface should stand, however. Not so much The People Vs The Establishment as the Twat against Count Binface.
I don't think I've ever wanted anything more in my entire life than for Count Binface to win the Clacton by-election
Elessarion AKA Little Lass Painting23Farage loses either way. Either he loses to a man dressed as a Bin or he wins an election where his only opponent was a man dressed as a bin. And the investigation into his finances starts up again.
Lil Nibbler, LBWI4Binface at least is easier on the eyes
Christo Silvia2Can a count serve in the house of commons?
yaoi gagarin36who do i need to call to start canvassing for count binface
Walt Disney gaúcho7Algo muito engraçado pode acontecer
Talyk 🏳️⚧️ -⃝⃤4REMINDER: Count Binface's policies: - WiFi on train must work - Tying the wage for government ministers to the pay of nurses - Rail routes rerouted through rail executive's homes - Stripping MPs of their subsidised bar - Capping the price of kebabs, 99 Flakes, and croissants It's a win-win imo!
caylee 🏳️🌈🐱🤖🏳️⚧️4I used to live here. My family still do. I am going to be *insisting* they vote Binface. Normally I wouldn't try to seriously push someone near me to vote a specific way, but this time, nah. Binface winning would instantly cure my depression.
Sparky Reddookami3Imagine if this causes Clacton to get a record-setting turnout for both themselves and nationally, and Count Binface wins Politics may be boring but when it's literally a comedic person versus a bigoted nazi who looks like a frog, the commentary is gonna be amazing
Nataly 🏳️⚧️2Count binface needs to win this. Uk folks in that area remember to vote for the one that counts.
Tammie! 🏳️⚧️2WHY IS LITERALLY NOBODY ELSE RUNNING FOR THIS ELECTION farage vs binface as much as i love binface he has no real hope of winning we're just gonna let farage walk back into office with a new shiny excuse for taking money from foreign donors because he has a "mandate from the people"? cmon TmT
Kelly ૮･ﻌ･ა 2I think Farage would legit just kill himself live on TV if Count Binface would win this
From a politico friend: "I cannot believe how earnestly I mean this: but I really hope the Monster Raving Loony Party stand down in favour of Count Binface" in Clacton The intergalactic wasteman is surely the only sensible candidate with a shot...
ianlineham.bsky.social7Definitely, straight fight, Binface v Frogface The Count v The Cunt
Surprised Pika5spent slightly longer than id care to admit on this
nickycorphello.bsky.social2@countbinface.bsky.social is our take on the Japanese football team & fans. He’ll tidy up as he goes & leave the place immaculate. A metaphor for the moment right there.
Jean-Luc Picard1I'm going to bet on it
Gerri1Thank you for giving me this proper belly laugh in these seemingly joyless times. I am forever grateful 🙏 🤣
The big question for the Clacton by-election is whether non-Reform voters will turn out for the anti-Farage candidate. Don't underestimate the power of negative partisanship.
Will Jennings📉🗳️200It will be difficult for Farage to play the anti-establishment card against a bin.
James Southern5We want Farage to get Binned! Every political nerd in the country needs to have a visit to the sea side. The local economy is going to boom. Best thing Farage has done for the place.
ScooterPee2How about this, Gary Lineker (like crypto man) sends Bin Face a bung. Binface then runs a whopping campaign and beats Farage. Then immediately defects (like Jenerick) to the Greens and re-names himself Count Recycle-Bin. 😉
James Crossland1The Binface Coalition - seems in keeping with our ludicrous political zeitgeist
