As Badenoch saw sense, it was just Farage playing politics over a young man’s death | John Crace

Everything is material for Nige, who made rare appearance at PMQs to ask question about Henry Nowak case

There was a rare sighting in Westminster on Wednesday. The lesser-spotted Farage. A species so elusive that not even David Attenborough has previously recorded him in the wild. Nige blinked several times, trying to get used to his unnatural surroundings.

He looked sunbaked. His time on the run ever since the Guardian revealed his previously undisclosed £5m handout from a crypto-billionaire in Thailand has clearly been spent mainly outdoors. Sleeping under the sun, moving by night under the stars. Anything to keep one step ahead of journalists asking awkward questions. One twitcher thought he had maybe caught sight of him on the Costa del Crime.
