Nigel Farage sensationally quit as MP for Clacton today and vowed to fight a "people versus establishment" by-election amid a row over his finances. Speaking at Reform UK headquarters, he said standards investigations by the parliamentary authorities are “now being used as a political tool” as he insisted he has "done nothing wrong" and has not "broken the law in any way at all."
