Starmer, Badenoch and Davey REJECT by-election triggered by Nigel Farage

Daily Record Daily Record — 1min

Parties across the political spectrum have rejected a by-election triggered by Nigel Farage, who said he would quit as an MP in protest at the intense scrutiny over unregistered donations of cash and support to him.

The Reform UK leader said he would stand down and then fight a “people versus the establishment” by-election, but several parties have since said they will not stand candidates to contest the seat.

The Clacton MP said he had done nothing wrong as he accused Westminster opponents of using sleaze investigations as a “political tool” and the media of “haranguing” his family.
