Paul Nuttall: “I’m going nowhere.” Finally, Ukip leader gets something right

Paul Nuttall claims he hasn't been this nervous about a result since he lined up 'that drop goal' in the 2003 Rugby World Cup final.

If Labour win we can expect a statement from Paul Nuttall saying he didn't stand there and it was, in fact, a PR woman in a bald cap. #Stoke

Paul Nuttall is looking ahead though. There's still that Best Actor nomination to look forward to for La La land #StokeCentral

After losing Stoke, it's now sink or swim for Paul Nuttall, though he maintains that technically he did both as a survivor of the Titanic.

Poor Paul Nuttall, who now has to go back to being an astronaut, brain surgeon and Olympic athlete. #stokebyelection

It’s not all bad news. Just two more and he’ll equal Nigel Farage’s election record!
