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.
