Farage vs Count Binface: hard-right leader’s UK poll gambit
London (AFP) – British anti-immigrant politician Nigel Farage faces the embarrassing prospect of going head-to-head with perennial joke candidate Count Binface in a by-election after he decided to quit parliament.
His surprise move threatened to backfire Wednesday after other heavyweight parties confirmed they would not contest the vote for Farage’s seat in southeast England.
Count Binface, a self-described “intergalactic space warrior”, is the only other person to have said so far that they would run.
No it can’t. That’s not how the law works. It’s designed to become corrupt enough to serve these fuhrers unconditionally.
It can do so even if he has stood down

Given the amount this has been run through the national news there is zero chance the investigation does not restart as soon as he gets back in. It might not continue if he loses though, they’ll say it would be a waste of time and energy if he’s not in parliament.
I just don’t care what any of that picture says, because neither does the bourgeoisie. The rule of law, the institutions etc it’s all noise.
It is a system designed to favour the goals of the bourgeoisie yes. Farage and other parliamentarians however are small fish beholden to big sharks. It is those sharks who run the system, and the system does work against a fish like Farage at times.
What do they care about the man who’d open their camps accepting 5 million pounds from abroad?
Some of them think deporting all the cheap labour they use is a bad idea.
The world is more complex than that.
Elaborate.
Institutions are comprised of thousands of people and most of those people aren’t in on it. They don’t have a post-it note on their desk that says “your job is to protect the bourgeoisie above all else”. They’re mostly normal people who do their job sincerely. The system is designed to favor people like Farage but it’s not a monolith, there are a ton of factors that can influence whether or not he will face consequences for corruption charges, down to the political orientations of individual case workers.
