Today Nigel Farage resigns as an MP, triggering a by-election in Clacton which he says he plans to stand in. He is currently facing an ongoing parliamentary standards investigation into whether he should have declared a £5 million gift he received from the cryptocurrency billionaire Christopher Harborne. Making the announcement in a statement streamed online, Farage said that he had done “nothing wrong” and that he needed the money to pay for security. He accused Sky News of harassing his family and said that standards regulations had been weaponised by the “establishment.” Calling the by-election “people versus the establishment”, Mr Farage said “the people of Clacton should be the judges of my actions.” Adam, Alex and Chris unpack what the move might mean. 00:00 Intro 00:34 Why is Nigel Farage resigning as MP? 01:56 Farage's announcement 07:49 Who else is standing in Clacton? 14:20 Will Burnham and Farage compete for our attention? 20:14 A new side of Nigel Farage?
