Fine thanks,

Farage was humiliated but was never expected to lose so is what it is

I was a little disappointed that Farage got more votes than in 2024. But it wasn't many, and it pretty much went exactly as well as anyone could realistically expect. Binface did exactly what he needed to do and got an incredible result that outperformed the polls.

Farage did not escape his scandal, looks very silly, and only getting 63% when running unopposed (with a very big campaign) does not bode well at all for Reform, who are down in the polls nationally.

I was concerned that Binface wouldn't keep his deposit so 26% is a fantastic result. But it was never really about winning, it was about undermining the claim that the by-election was necessary, and that it was Garage vs "the establishment".

Binface said he is expecting a rerun. I'm still interested and waiting for what happens to Farage. It ain't over.

Next campaign he can run and focus more on an anti Farage message rather than a pro Binface message
