Just noticed that every time I try to @ Count Binface @countbinface.bsky.social the first suggestion is @countarthurstrong.bsky.social Any thoughts on running, Count Arthur?

Are the collective MSM and news corps going to be interviewing any other bins in the Clacton constituency? We need the word on the street, at the end of every driveway... On bin day @countbinface.bsky.social

@countbinface.bsky.social is there any truth in the rumour that you're standing in for @mrjamesob.bsky.social on Monday to let him have another day off?

The @iss-piss-tracker.bsky.social Juxtaposition never misses with the satire

Trust in politics depends on transparency. That's why conflicts of interest must be declared, lobbying rules must be upheld, and saying "it's none of your business" isn't good enough.

After much drive-by adoration I have now joined the Patreon for both @originstorypodcast.bsky.social AND @ohgodwhatnow.bsky.social A piddling pledge to both, but small and heartfelt thanks for all you guys do. Gonna miss those 'Car Vertical' ads, mind Much love to you all x

Horrifying how common it is to see National Front-level racist comments on most of the posts Facebook shoves my way, whether it's the Guardian or a music magazine or whatever. This level of shamelessness is very new and not confined to X. It's like people were just waiting for cultural permission.

No, that would be fussed immediately. Much better if he phoned as a Reform supporter from South Yorkshire. Complete with “n’then Bob, can thar put us lot up ‘ere straight about wot thar mate Farage is up to, cos we’re buggered if us thick twats can figure it out”

"Farage should win an election where no major parties field candidates, but such a victory looks hollow, and the contest pointless. Given that, Farage might even be tempted to u-turn on his idea to resign as an MP in the first place – but then he would forever be the man who ran scared of a bin."

Truly, we are blessed. 😊 "My job is to demonstrate that British democracy is wonderful and unique in the entire Cosmos" 'Count Binface told BBC Breakfast why he plans to stand against Nigel Farage in the Clacton by-election.' via x.com/i/status/207...

Let’s settle this, is Nigel Farage a racist? Like if he is. RT if he is going to lose Clacton to Count Binface.

We are in a climate emergency and it is killing people. Stop illustrating these stories with old timey cute beach huts and other faux boomer memorabilia. This is serious and we are in trouble. Start treating it as such.

Absolutely smashing it today, @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social - thank you for being an amazing stand in for @mrjamesob.bsky.social

lol. Complete with Fake Greek accent …Only way he’d get an interview!

Me phoning in to @lbc.co.uk tomorrow when Honest Bob Jenrick is standing in for @mrjamesob.bsky.social

"waaaaaaaaah, oh wah wah waahhhhhhh" - Nigel Farage, 62

"Now say a mob of 50 people attacked you and wrecked your car but you didn't bother reporting it!"

This is the most endlessly self-pitying statement from a politician I've ever heard

So, a joke MP with 5 houses bought for cash, links to criminality and a £5Mill ‘gift’ in his bank… is so enraged at being held to account… that he resigns from the MP role he never did anyway…and demands a “people v the establishment” by-election to vote him back in. What an insufferable wanker.

On my way, Clacton.

Farage versus Binface is absolute the summer we deserve

Because it means he doesn't get to have a me vs the establishment campaign. And his likely victory isn't taken as vindication by anyone. Plus it makes him look silly and desperate.

Oh, I did a riding and a riting thing last month sportive.com/2026/07/07/r...

Farage’s self-imposed by-election could amount to a contest between him and host of (other?) political eccentrics like Count Binface Meanwhile, the campaign brings his donor scandal into full view of the electorate - ready for the commissioner report I see no reason for the main parties to engage

There once was a grifter named Nigel Who's financial shenanigans went viral He blamed it on liars But his pants were on fire And he's not accused anyone of libel

Farage. Resign. By-election. Bicycle-Stick-Crash. Meme. Recall petition

Me after learning @countbinface.bsky.social WANTS to stand against Farage in Clacton #CountVsC*unt

Any Clacton residents who want to nominate your friendly neighbourhood intergalactic space warrior, ping me a line!

So if I understand Nigel Farage’s position, it is this: It is irrelevant how corrupt or not a politician is, as long as the voters of Clacton support him. Welcome to Trump’s America, UK!

Farage calling a by-election on himself might be the most narcissistic thing he's ever done. Using it to cover up his corruption just makes him a weasel. The people of Clacton-On-Sea deserve better.

Update….

Of course… it was another spoiler www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

seriously, 52 : 48 for binface would be the funniest thing ever

Oh, it’s getting worse!

Following Nigel Farage's defiant resignation to trigger a Clacton by-election over his undeclared funding investigations, Lab, the Con, and the Lib Dems have all refused to field candidates, dismissing the move as a desperate stunt designed to run away from parliamentary scrutiny

It would be great if Binface won Clacton and then turned out to be a remarkably effective local MP who served several terms

EXC - The £5m gift to Nigel Farage by a cryptocurrency billionaire was reported to the National Crime Agency by bankers who were concerned it may have been laundered money, the Guardian can reveal. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Be a real shame if people put these up everywhere in Clacton :( link in bio for a free poster download x

Me when I hear that none of the other main parties are standing a candidate in Farage's People vs The Establishment by-election

Me when Farage finds out they won't let him resign until the Ethics Committee verdict

Breaking News: People of Clacton rejoice at the prospect of an MP after seeing hide nor hair of the previous one.

Breaking News: Andy Burnham resigns as MP for Makerfield to stand as prospective member for Clacton...

Breaking News: Farage mentions 'Clacton' more times since 2pm than he's actually been there since 2024

This is the moment for a unity anti-Farage candidate to come forward. And everyone else to step aside.

Farage resigns his seat in Clacton forcing a by election which he ... er plans to stand in. Huge performative cost to the taxpayers to feather his ego. I hope it backfires spectacularly
