New polling shows Brits aren’t buying Nigel Farage’s anti-establishment crusade
New polling indicates skepticism among Brits regarding Nigel Farage’s claim of being targeted by the political establishment. A majority view his decision to resign his Clacton seat as a wasteful by-election strategy, while his satirical opponent Count Binface is seen as more trustworthy. Only 28% of voters believe Farage is a victim of the establishment, with support concentrated among those already aligned with Reform UK.
