Nigel Farage has resigned as MP and triggered a by-election in Clacton.

In this video, I fact-check the key claims from his speech, separate fact from opinion, and examine what's supported by evidence, what's misleading, and what's still unanswered.

We'll cover:

Did journalists really harass his family?
Did The Times publish his address?
What do the parliamentary declaration rules actually say?
Can resigning stop a standards investigation?
What happens if he's re-elected?
And why all of this matters, regardless of which party you support.

This isn't about whether you like Nigel Farage. It's about whether our politicians should all be held to the same standard of transparency and accountability.

If I've missed anything, or if you think I've got something wrong, let me know in the comments. I read as many as I can, and I'm always happy to correct or clarify where new evidence emerges.

If you enjoy evidence-based political analysis without the tribal shouting, please consider liking, subscribing and sharing the video. It really helps the channel grow.
