Farage's Fake Fight Recent polling numbers out of Clacton have been touted as a victory for Count Binface, Nigel Farage's satirical challenger in the upcoming by election.
However, a closer look at these numbers reveals a more nuanced story. One striking aspect of this poll is the disconnect between Farage's popularity and his party's fortunes.
According to Survation, Farage would win 73% of the vote on a low turnout – but that same support drops to 69% when voters are given just two options: him or Count Binface.
