UK's Count Binface, the 'joke' candidate challenging far-right Farage in Clacton by-election

Summary

Britain's Count Binface, a man wearing a metallic rubbish bin over his head, challenges far-right politician Nigel Farage on Thursday in the Clacton by-election sparked by the Reform UK leader's shock resignation from his post in July. None of the UK's mainstream political parties are fielding candidates, so the outlandish Binface is stealing the show.
