My favourite anecdote about Clacton-on-Sea, where Nigel Farage will stand for parliament, is about this Banksy stencil.
It appeared on a wall in the Essex town in 2014. The townsfolk were absolutely indignant at the implication that they're anti-migration bigots. Outraged, I tell you.
Their fury at this terrible slur was only eclipsed by how livid they were when their own council painted over the art.
Do you know how much money they could've made from tourism and novelty trinkets related to it?
Farage will be perfectly at home there.
