Enda Brady: UK Correspondent on Nigel Farage standing in the UK's general election

Published: June 3, 2024, 10:31 p.m.

Nigel Farage has made a U-turn regarding the UK\u2019s general election.\xa0

The former Ukip and Brexit party leader initially had no plans to stand during the election but has decided to now stand as an MP in Clacton as well as lead the Reform party for the next five years.\xa0

This could\u2019ve dealt a potentially damaging blow to the faltering campaign for the Conservative party.\xa0

UK Correspondent Enda Brady told Mike Hosking that Farage has been lighting fires around the place for a few weeks now and has now been bounced into running.\xa0

He said that while it will certainly cause problems for the Tories, it\u2019s unlikely to change the outcome of this election.\xa0
