Rupert Lowe says Restore Britain will NOT stand against Nigel Farage in shock by-election

Rupert Lowe has confirmed Restore Britain will not stand in the Clacton by-election caused by Nigel Farage's resignation.

The Great Yarmouth MP and former ally of Mr Farage suggested his party will stand in a potential second by-election "when the investigations into Farage’s finances conclude as we all suspect they will."


Mr Lowe said: "We are not going to participate in a Reform-sponsored media circus over the summer months that is designed to puff up Farage’s ego and deflect away from wholly fair questions over why he has concealed such vast and irregular financial donations.

"Farage can play with his toys for the next six weeks but Restore Britain is going to continue producing detailed policy papers, exactly as we have been, outlining how we can fix our country."
