Nigel Farage finally becomes an MP | LBC analysis

- Nigel Farage has won in Clacton, with the Reform UK leader declaring his party is 'coming for Labour'.
The Reform UK leader was projected to claim victory in the coastal town, which is traditionally a Tory stronghold, ahead of polling day.
Farage received 21,225 votes, leaving him with a majority of 8,405.
The result was announced just before 3:30am, with Conservative candidate Giles Watling losing his seat to Mr Farage in what's been described as a 'landslide victory'.
It's the party leader's eighth attempt to become an MP, having previously run in two by-elections and five general elections as a UKIP candidate before leading Reform UK.

@@ColinBarrett001the country lost under labour 🤣
Nice to see the Rossiya Trolly farm is still working overtime for Fartage.
LBC didnt like the Clacton result.
Gave it plenty of coverage though. Just shows the desperation of the sad people of Clacton, to fall for the bs of a disaster capitalist.
@gregsmith7821 they should have voted Labour.. Labour care about the working class right 😂😂

Five whole seats is really going to make an impact 😆 😂

2nd place: Conservative total votes 6,756,134 total seats 119 vote share 23.7%
3rd place: Reform UK total votes 4,073,607 total seats 4 vote share 14.3%
4th place: Liberal Democrat total votes 3,487,604 total seats 71 vote share 12.2%
under PR would be something like
1st place Labour 219 seats
2nd place Conservatives 154 seats
3rd place Reform 93 seats
4th place Lib Dem 79 seats
You are probably too young to know. PR was voted on and campaigned for by Lib Dems. I voted for and we lost. No point crying about it now just because your guy didn't win.

conveniently lost the picture for corbyn's win
I’m disappointed that Corbyn supported Brexit and that his egoistic desire to become PM led to the disastrous results in 2019, but I am overjoyed that he has retained his seat after horrible treatment from Starmer.

I think villainizing Corbyn is misguided. Johnson’s “victory” in 2019 was based on the lie of getting Brexit done with an “oven ready deal” delivered to an exhausted, disillusioned public fed up with the divisiveness of a disastrous decision to leave the EU based on yet more lies.

@@cjtdup5395 Again you just sound paranoid.
Talk of 'Islamist tendencies' is pejorative dog-whistle used by xenophobes.
I'm not muslim, indeed I do not adhere to any religion, but the deluded fear mongering of Nige and others is baseless, divisive and dangerous.
The idea that you preserve freedoms by curtailing freedoms of others is nonsensical.
Here is the contrast. It is interesting that Corbyn gets in because he has been a hard working MP for his constituency, I doubt that Farage will spend any time in his constituency and gets in with a limited message.
cry some more please
@@jrobs1133 why should I be crying Labour did very well

It’s going to be fun to see Farage actually try to do the job.

He'll soon enough stand down as he has no real interest in actually doing a job, hes a grifter and he just grifted the idiots of Clacton lol

Curious what the final seat count breakdown will be

The elevated salt intake will soon put you to sleep
Me too 😂😂😂
Well done, great analysis.
Salty ones!
Those liberal tears 😂
It's quite poetic that Corbyn and Farage had their results announced within minutes of each other. Two politicians on opposite ends of the political spectrum, both with no real power but iconic in their own ways.
Oh, the LBC presenters looks so happy when Nigel Farage one Clacton Not.
"won" - learn the language - :)
Won
Thick as gammon 😅😅
He be gone in the local election
Marr’s definately not biased at all 😂 Lost for words when Nigel Farage won his seat haha, his face says it all. Here’s to Nigel wiping the smile off many more people’s faces in the next five years 👍💪 Go Nigel.

Guess who is now the Father of the House?
The way Labour and the Lib Dems marshalled their voting was superb and Carol Vorderman also fronted a massive campaign to vote tactically. While it didn't fully succeed in it's goals Labour and Lib Dems pretty much destroyed the Tory Party. Reform can complain about the massive share of the vote they had that didn't convert to seats but, however, The Lib dems historically can complain too. Pretty much what Labour and Lib dems did was not compete against each other in areas that one was more likely to win over the other. The number of seats that moved from labour to Lib Dem or vice versa this election was extremely low. That was not by chance. The result of that is the share of voting for either party was quite stagnant....but it was more concentrated and more effective.
You got to remember Carol Vorderman is a superb mathematician
Anyone else looking forward to the disclosures and scrutiny part?
The CON'S will CON no more!!!
But dont worry to the CON's who lost there seats, Rishi is SORRY! and will soon be off to warmer climates with his millions while you have to stay and lump it....LOL.
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
That's the last the people of Clacton will ever see of him 😂
doubt
Farage 🎉🎉🎉@@GoldenbanjoDJ
Even if that were true, I don't think they need to see him. They'll be seeing him plenty on the TV holding these clowns in Parliament to account.
@@xyo1337Holding them to account how exactly, in his 4 person party? He'll rightly be pushed to the sidelines where his lies and bile can be can only be heard once in a blue moon.
@@bgriffixwe’ll see in five years.
- He got more votes than Lib Dem’s in just a couple of weeks of being leader and a few years of the party existing.
- People now see it’s doable. It’s not a wasted vote as in some seats they were party #2, so reform will be the tactical vote next time.
- His base isn’t going anywhere they’re solid reform.
Dangerous to underestimate him if you hate him; silly to be disheartened if you like him. He is likely going to be PM some day.
Lol😂 the sad faces
Who's the wizard texting on live TV?
2029 might be interesting 😲
Reform " WIND OF CHANGE" well done Farage and friends.
I can understand Vorderman dressing to look like her daughter, but does her daughter want to look like Barbera Cartland
Well done Reform..over 4 million votes is incredible...I fully expect him to take control of the right wing in parliament. Only 1 in 5 voted labour..crazy.
Mathematics require that you compare like for like....
Five whole seats. Basically a sofa then 😆
You fully expect that Brexit father Farage and Brexit wouldn't fail as well 😂
Pretty much Brexit 2.
Lucky for the country it didn’t happen.
8:45 they’re still on camera 😆
LBC doesn't have anyone to complain about Tories are gone you may have to shut down the LBC you can't complain about the labour party .
Nothing you said makes any sense.

Farage = Marjorie T Green. They both wine, they both thrive in peoples feelings and they both 6B.
A very labour supporting panel
Britain, The America of Europe! Lol
What does that actually mean? 😅😅
Farage as MP is gonna do for Clacton what he did for the fishing industry while MEP in the EU fisheries commission. I know it looks bad, but remember : after doing it, he did something else very nice for the british fisherman : brexit. Clacton, please, now : enjoy.
He can and he will. That is his soul purpose. However what he will bring is not right centre it will be unbelievable extremism. This is not a grin of a looser. He is where he wants to be and he will get many people to listen to him.
I hope Farage works a bit harder in Westminster than he did in the European Parliament. May he at least turn up occasionally.
Given that he resides in Brussels and pays taxes in Belgium it won't be easy.

Why do you think that? Reform will gather momentum over the next few years and will become a strong opposition . As a nation that’s what we need 🇬🇧
Hopefully Nigel will build on his and other Reform MP’s win and build a strong platform with his media work in the coming years, people will soon find out he appeals to the younger generation and it is that that will make his party stronger, us oldies have laid the foundations for that which is how it should be.

Farrage talks like he is on a Simon Cowell show. "Something that will stun all of you". I find.him really tedious and vacuous.
He's really lacking in charisma, not much of a public speaker. He finds support through people who already agree with him but he's hardly a persuasive individual.

Is it? You don't exactly do well in attracting younger folk so what's to stop this small Reform bump flattening out as time passes?

@@rb1062 his whole political career is about distrust of the foreigners in the EU, "illegal" immigrants, us and them etc. That's how Reform ended up with candidates saying what they did and being thrown out, he created an environment where they felt comfortable for that.
