He famously decided to ‘quit’ Politics following the EU referendum but it seems Nigel Farage just can’t stay away.

No, Nigel Farage won’t be negotiating with Donald Trump for us, Downing Street says

Because he’s now hinted that he could be making a comeback bid if a by-election in South Thanet takes place.

His bid comes days after a new report was released criticising the Tory campaign against Farage in the constituency last year.

It was alleged that the Conservatives broke spending rules when campaigning for the election of Craig McKinlay, which ultimately pushed Mr Farage into second place in the general election.

Kent Police are currently looking into the allegations and if it finds there was wrongdoing, it could trigger a by-election in the seat.



It would Mr Farage’s eighth bid for MP if it does happen.

When asked by Mail on Sunday if he would consider running for MP again, Mr Farage replied: ‘I’d have to.’

He also suggested that the reason Downing Street have not asked him for help with connecting to Donald Trump is because they’re ‘worried this may come back to bite them’.

Despite his resignation in June, he was forced to return as acting party leader after his successor Diane James quit after just 18 days but insisted he would disappear again once a replacement was chosen.
