Count Binface takes Farage to the curb over time he’s spent in Clacton

► Count Binface has thrown his lid in the ring to compete for the Clacton by-election after Nigel Farage resigned as an MP on Tuesday, before immediately announcing his intention to contest the seat he is vacating in what many have branded a “stunt”. Labour, the Conservatives, Lib Dems, and the Greens have said they will not stand a candidate, meaning the Count is the only one prepared to try and curb the Reform leader’s run to power. The Count has never been to Clacton, but says, that’s probably not an issue for voters as the “incumbent doesn’t actually spend any time there” either. ► Have you subscribed to 5 News?: http://bit.ly/5NewsSub ► Follow 5 News on Twitter to keep up to date with the latest news - https://twitter.com/5_News Message us on Facebook to share your opinion - https://www.facebook.com/c5News See our latest pictures and videos on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/c5news/ ► About 5 News: We bring you the stories that matter to you, from around the world and across the UK. 🎥 We post daily playlists with the biggest news of the day, interviews, special reports and investigations. 📺 Catch us on TV on Channel 5 every weekday 5-6pm 📱 Get in touch with us on WhatsApp at +44 7555 500 501 🎧 Listen to "How Did We Get Here?
