Deadline to file as a candidate for Clacton passed, and full list of candidates announced.
I heard a rumour that Farage failed to file in time, but that seems not to be true.
Twenty independents, Three candidates from the Monster Raving Loony party, a bunch of small parties, and the two fore-runners: Nigel Farage and Count Binface
Thirty Four candidates at an election is a British record.
One clear unity candidate. Every vote for the Count counts!

I am once again wishing Polymarket was accepting UK customers. 5% for binface seems absurdly low. There's no other unity candidate against Farage, and half the people in the constituency will vote strongly against the fuckface and so for the binface. Buy at 5% and sell at 20% before the election would likely be a good move. But the man won't allow it. Grr. Curse the man.
