Cut Cat

"He's anti-Brexit!" Good.

"He's anti-Trump!" Good.

"He's anti-establishment!" At this point I think you're just trying to make me like him more.

"His manager once called Farage a horrible cunt!" Well Farage *is* a horrible cunt, what's your point?

"He's making a joke of British politics!" Well that's very appropriate given that current British politics *are* a fucking joke.

"He's a left-wing liberal elitist!" I don't know if you can be all of those things at once, but I do know that Count Binface isn't the one getting millions in donations from cryptocurrency billionaires sooooooo...

Farage is the leader of the far-right Reform party, is a Putin and Trump simp, hates the NHS and wants it abolished in favour of US-style private healthcare (won't someone *please* think of the poor billionaire investors who aren't able to run the NHS for profit???) and was a major driving force behind Brexit.

He's a rich cunt but he's also a rich cunt who recieved a £5 million "gift" from a billionaire crypto bro which was not declared to Parliament. Which is not a good look as MPs are supposed to be open about their finances and funding to prove that there's no conflicts of interest going on. He's also recieved funding from a convicted fraudster.

He also criticised the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) for saving migrants trying to cross the English Channel instead of letting them drown, referring to them as a "migrant taxi service". Which is fucking abhorrent in the first place, but dipshit was apparently unaware that the RNLI is funded almost entirely by donations and recieves no government funding. Shortly after making this criticism, donations to the RNLI surged because fuck Farage.

Anyway, with increased public scrutiny on his finances, Farage decided to try some theatrics, announcing that he was resigning as the MP for Clacton. This triggers the byelection, because Clacton needs an MP. Farage is going to stand for reelection despite resigning, declaring that he would clear his name in the court of public opinion. Because if people still vote him in despite the financial fuckery then clearly the *people* support him, fuck you Parliament Farage is the rebel outsider who everyone loves.

The other mainstream political parties decided not to field candidates, because this was clearly just a publicity stunt. Unfortunately for Farage, Count Binface isn't a mainstream political party, he's an intergalactic space warrior who doesn't afraid of anything. (including milkshakes)

And it's looking like Count Binface might actually win, though now some other independent candidates have stepped up. Including a furry and a clairvoyant. The venerable Monster Raving Looney Party have also expressed interest.
