Nigel Farage decides he quite likes being a chocolate teapot.

We need never speak of him again. https://t.co/pkbXlvYckk

Look, let's be honest:

The reason Nigel Farage isn't taking over Reform UK for the General election is because he's a gutless charlatan and a colossal hack

He knows that:

– He won't win
– He'll be humiliated
– He'll tarnish his ridiculous reputation

So he hides like a coward pic.twitter.com/BHxc2qy9Gt

wonder what made Nigel Farage, who has stood unsuccessfully in five general elections and two by-elections, decide not to stand in this general election

Fáragë won't try to lose an election for the 8th time, instead he'll be interfering in a foreign election on behalf of Vladimir Putin. pic.twitter.com/7w7IIBzk28

Could we be approaching a Farage-free future?

Nigel Farage has had far more coverage than he merited throughout his career, particularly in recent years.

By rights this latest flounce, and the wiping out of the Right at the coming election, should put him to bed as a going concern in British politics for good.

Unlikely. Sorry.
