Mr Brexit, Nigel Faragewill be candidate in the general elections to be held in Great Britain next month. “I have changed my mind. I will stand in these elections”, declared the leader of Reform UK, specifying that he will run in the constituency of Clacton, in Essex, and giving an appointment with journalists for the start of the electoral campaign “tomorrow at midday” in coastal town.
Farage, what previously he had always ruled out running for officeexplained that he wanted to achieve a better result than the four million votes he obtained when he led UKIP in 2015. According to the ‘face’ of the Brexit campaign, his candidacy is not intended to take votes away from the Conservatives, but from Labor. For the seat of Clacton, Farage will have to contend with Matthew Bensilum (Liberal Democrats), Natasha Osben (Greens), Jovan Owusu-Nepaul (Labour) and Giles Watling (Tories).
