Nigel Farage threatens to run for Parliament again
« on: March 13, 2017, 09:28:28 pm »
The former Ukip leader is considering standing as a candidate if a by-election in sparked in South Thanet.

Nigel Farage has said he would ‘probably’ stand again in the Kent constituency he fought at the 2015 general election if a fraud investigation leads to a by-election.

Kent Police and the Electoral Commission are investigating whether the Conservatives broke the law by failing to properly declare expenses related to the 2015 campaign.

According to the Mail On Sunday, Farage’s election strategist Chris Bruni-Lowe has passed a dossier to police containing details of computer logs accessed by Ukip’s only MP Douglas Carswell, who defected to the party from the Conservatives.

It claims that Mr Carswell passed details about local voters to the Tories to help them defeat Mr Farage – an allegation he strongly denies.
