The leader of the ultra-nationalist and eurosceptic Reform UK party, Nigel Farage, returns to the British Parliament this Friday morning after winning the local elections in Clacton-On-Sea, atown in the south-east of England, called by Farage himself in the midst of a donation scandal with the aim of strengthening himself in the face of public opinion.
Farage won by 22,239 votes and won by 12,784 votes over his only rival, writer Jonathan David Harvey, nicknamed 'Count Carabasura' , a candidate who has presented himself as a way of proclaiming democracy.
The Labour Party and the Conservative Party have failed to nominate candidates, calling these elections Farage's pantomime .
Police recommendation
The leader of Reform UK has achieved better results than in 2024 , and so has his party, which has since improved in the polls, although the turnout in the elections has been 44.37%, about 14 points lower than two years ago.
On the other hand, after learning of thevictory, Farage has not come to celebrate it on the grounds that the police have informed him of the existence of an organized campaign to disrupt and undermine the outcome, but according to police sources, under no circumstances have they advised him not to attend the event.
