Poor, poor NIgel Farage thought he had it all covered in his attempts to avoid corruption scrutiny, and then the biggest own goal in UK political history. Two massive reasons why he will lose to the public's galvanised hero.

Because he's the hero Clacton deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian, a watchful protector. A massive bin.
