As seen on another thread...

Count Binface vs Count My Millions.

I wonder if Jenrick will still do JOB's slot tomorrow?

🤣

Even the Telegraph are wavering in their support of Farage - today's headline

Farage gamble turns into farce

ALERT Count Bin Face will be on R4 Today any minute.

Just turned it on - did I miss him?

No, he’s not been on yet. The announcer said he was up next, but they’re still talking about the Prince Harry court result. Hopefully he’ll be on next.

And now it's Russian fuel shortages.
Come on BBC get your priorities right 🤣

I did notice a few minutes ago that the top two threads on MN are both about Count Binface 😁

It is so hilarious. Farage has made an absolute idiot of himself. Yesterday, before everyone stood down, one of his supporters on here said it was an "inspired" move. Umm...

I saw Tice making chicken noises on GB News. They really are showing themselves up.

Only 12% of people think Farage has been honest about his financial affairs, poll suggests

That rises to 40% for Reform voters

YouGov

Binface is on! He's a delight!

Q - What is your appeal to the voters of Clacton?
Binface - I'm not Nigel Farage
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

🤣🤣

His resignation can be refused

So, there is a precedent for vetoing an MP's resignation

Viscount Chelsea (Henry Cadogan) applied for the Chiltern Hundreds in 1842

The Chancellor (Goulburn) refused because, get this, Cadogan wanted to resign to obstruct an investigation for bribery

More Bin face- from 2024

That's brilliant

Thank you @Cheguevarahamster, I so enjoyed that.

Thanks @Cheguevarahamster
Particularly liked Suella's 5 ejector seats 🤣

Lord Heywood talking about this on Today. 1.13. Today - 08/07/2026 - BBC Sounds

Proof that the establishment are out to get him!

Inspired 😂

And (of course) proceedings in parliament are not subject to the ECHR.

Sorry Nige.

And perfect on rhyme and metre!
