Badenoch says Farage ‘cracking under pressure’ as he triggers by-election

The Conservative Party (Tories) faces a potential opportunity to reclaim the Clacton constituency after losing it to Nigel Farage in the 2024 general election. Despite the loss, the party's leadership, led by Kemi Badenoch, has not confirmed whether they will field a candidate in an upcoming by-election. Badenoch criticized Farage's tactics, calling them a 'gimmick' and accusing him of wasting taxpayer money. She also suggested that Farage is struggling under pressure, citing his outbursts during recent interviews. Meanwhile, Farage aims to leverage the by-election as part of an anti-establishment campaign, though he now faces competition from another right-wing group, Restore Britain.
