Gavin Grey: UK correspondent speaks ahead of Clacton byelection
Published 2 weeks, 2 days ago
Description
The Clacton byelection is getting underway, and it's shaping up to be a 'bizarre' event.
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage stepped down as MP of Clacton and immediately stood for re-election after a slew of allegations of financial misconduct.
None of the other major parties have candidates running, so Farage's opponents include Count Binface, actor-turned-politician Laurence Fox, and three candidates from the Official Monster Raving Loony Party.
UK correspondent Gavin Grey explained further.
