POLLS showing Count Binface could bag a fifth of the vote in Clacton are reported as a triumph for the joke candidate. The consequences of the abdication of the field by every mainstream party are harder to predict. Farage has only himself to blame for spending the “summer arguing with a bin.” No individual left party can be singled out for failure to contest Clacton. Reform voters do not just need outnumbering: they need winning away from that party and its poisonous politics.
