Sorry for the direct link. Archiving is not working for me today.
Reform UK MP Nigel Farage on Tuesday announced that he would step down from his seat to trigger a by-election amid an investigation into his finances.
"Today, I will resign as a member of Parliament for Clacton-on-Sea, thereby forcing a by-election, which should happen, I hope, in short order," he said. "Now, I've decided that the people of Clacton should be the judges of my actions. This will be a people vs. the establishment by-election."
He further indicated that he would stand in the by-election and vowed to win. Farage currently represents Clacton-on-Sea in Parliament. He previously represented Southeast England in the European Parliament before the UK left the European Union.
"Well, the new attack from the media is that somehow I am a crook. I am dishonest," Farage said. He further raged over a newspaper's decision to post an image of his daughter's home.
"I've never been angrier in my life," he added.
