Nigel Farage, who has recently become the leader of Reform UK, was hit by a milkshake while starting his election campaign in Clacton-on-Sea.

When he launched his campaign, the ex-leader of Ukip declared that his objective was for Reform UK to gain control of the Conservative Party, which could lead to him becoming the future prime minister. During an appearance on ITV's Good Morning Britain on Tuesday, he clarified that his intention was to take over the party, rather than simply joining its ranks.

During his initial significant public talk after announcing his run for office, the individual spoke to a large group at Clacton Pier. The onlookers vocally supported him with cheers like "go get 'em Nige" and "Nigel, we adore you." He proclaimed to the assembly, "Grant me permission to go to Parliament and make a lot of trouble."

Mr. Farage caused chaos without even going to Westminster, as his followers got into a violent confrontation with demonstrators over a placard that read: "Clacton doesn't want Farage".

Farage Vows To Prevent Starmer From Aligning UK With EU

If Nigel Farage becomes an MP, he has promised to prevent Sir Keir Starmer from getting too cozy with the European Union.

According to the leader of Reform UK, the occurrence of Brexit caused a major rift within the Labour party, resulting in very severe divisions.

I will be present to ensure that Starmer does not lead us towards rejoining the European Union. As a vocal participant, I will make sure to express my views.

According to Mr. Farage, it is completely doable to decrease net migration to nothing, but there would still be enough space for individuals with specific abilities who are in short supply.

Clacton Gains A 'champion' With Reform UK Leader

The leader of Reform UK, Nigel Farage, promised to be a strong advocate for Clacton, a town that he said is often overlooked and neglected. Farage claimed that the town is situated at the furthest end of the line of priorities for those in power.

From the Moon and Starfish pub in Essex, he spoke about his decision to run for Member of Parliament. He stated that he had to think carefully about whether he wanted to dedicate his Fridays to serving Clacton. Ultimately, he made the choice to run for MP. This was a significant decision for him.

He stated, "I will make an effort to attend here every Friday that I am able. It is without a doubt that the people of Clacton have provided their backing to me during the Ukip period and also to the current member of parliament, Douglas Carswell."

During the Brexit referendum campaign, my supporters provided me with immense backing. They are seeking a leader who will uphold their convictions, but they do not perceive this in the current Conservative or Labour Party.

As their representative on both national and local matters, I will fight for their cause. It's possible that being a well-known figure across the country and coming from a town that's often overlooked could lead to some much-needed investment and positive change.

Nigel Farage's Plans To Impact Conservative Party Doomed

The main objective of the Reform UK leader's comeback in politics is not to have an impact on the general election but rather to reform the Tories' direction in opposition and guide them towards conservative ideals. However, according to John Rentoul, there are reasons why this plan will not succeed.

Nigel Farage is still a master in the art of political theatrics. If he had been the head of Reform UK during the time of the general election announcement, and had revealed his intention to stand for election in Clacton earlier, he would now be finding it hard to convince media personnel to attend his press conferences.
