We actually only found this out today in Nigel Farage's own statement to camera.
He is now facing a second Standards Commissioner inquiry into money he has received from George Cottrell.
And what essentially happened is in the year before Nigel Farage became an MP, he accepted extraordinary amounts of money and help from some very wealthy people.
Christopher Harborne and George Cottrell, both of whom were involved in the crypto industry, by the way.
He took this money.
He took what the services that they were paying for.
He then became an MP and was then supposed to declare everything he'd received that had anything to do with politics in the 12 months before becoming an MP.
But what he says is these gifts were made to me in a private capacity.
They were to do with my personal security and then nothing to do with my political activities.
But essentially, what we now know is that there are those two investigations going on.
Having a look at Parliament's rulebook on this, it seems that what will happen is during the period of that campaign, those investigations will have to be suspended because Nigel Farage won't technically be an MP anymore.
However, the commissioner can then resume them after he if he wins that by election and can still carry out the sanctions that the commissioner was able to in the first place.
So here we go.
Here's an extraordinary scenario for you.
It could be.
that Nigel Farage now fights a by-election in Clacton-on-Sea, wins a by-election in Clacton-on-Sea, and then a few weeks later, the Parliament's Standards Commissioner recommends that he be forced to face another one because the findings of those investigations are so extreme.
We could end up in a position where Nigel Farage, by the end of the year, has had to fight two by-elections in his constituency.
Oh, no, we're not.
We're not hoping for that, Lucy.
This is what Westminster thrives on.
