Nigel Farage has formally quit as an MP to fight a by-election where his most dangerous rival so far is Count Binface.
Reform UK is proposing that the vote takes place on the 6 August, in what Mr Farage hopes will be a thumping victory in his Clacton seat. That seems likely as the other main parties are not standing.
But more details about personal gifts, funding and lobbying surrounding the Reform UK leader are continuing to emerge.
