Carol Vorderman has endorsed Count Binface in the Clacton by-election, repeatedly urging voters to support the satirical candidate over Nigel Farage. She criticized Farage as “awful” and described Binface as the “Banksy of politics.” The contest was triggered by Farage’s resignation amid scrutiny over an undeclared £5 million gift from crypto tycoon Christopher Harborne, although the investigation was suspended pending the election result. Vorderman also said she had not ruled out entering politics and expressed support for Andy Burnham, who recently returned to Westminster after winning the Makerfield by-election and became prime minister.
