I feel like Count Binface should stop trying to dodge the international press and do so himself.

he will lose to heads of cabbages like most current PM of uk.
He would if they make him pm, but that's not what this is about lucky for him
But the decision was quickly dismissed by his usual sparring partners. The UK’s main political parties – the ruling Labour Party, the right-wing Conservative Party and the centrist Liberal Democrats – all announced they would boycott the Clacton vote.
What would happen to the election if Farage was the only candidate?
Then he's guaranteed to win and will be declared elected.
And the investigation into him by the ministerial will continue
Ah, so this is to prevent any distractions from the investigation. Got it.
Pretty much, also means Farage can't claim that the people have shown they don't care about his money because he was voted in a second time.
What can happen is if Farage wins, the investigation continues and there's a very real chance he'll be suspended so another election will be called.
Each election costs about 450k of public money, so Count Binface can say that just by electing him and him doing literally nothing, he's saving the public nearly half a million quid.
This timeline is bonkers
