Clacton is the only parliamentary constituency that has ever been won at a general election by a party associated with Nigel Farage - though a seat in the House of Commons has so far eluded the man himself.
In 2014, the Conservative MP for Clacton, Douglas Carswell, announced he was defecting to the UK Independence Party (UKIP) and triggered a by-election, which he won with 60% of the vote, becoming UKIP’s first elected member of Parliament.
Talk’s International Editor Isabel Oakeshott joins Kevin O’Sullivan to discuss this further.
