The Clacton byelection was billed as Farage versus the establishment. Instead, it was an expensive exercise in proving something most of us already knew, writes Ash Sarkar.
The voters of Clackton had a chance to stand up to corruption, to get rid of a shit MP, to fix an error, and to get a bit of a tourism bump. But the majority of them bottled it. Very disappointing. But having been to Clacton before, I’m not surprised.
I watched a video where people in Clacton were interviewed about who they were going to vote for. They were all voting for Nigel. None of them had a clue why he’d called the election. They ALL had missing teeth.
