## Article

I'm sorry, Nigel. You quit Clacton, beat Count Binface with 63 percent on a 44 percent turnout, and hours later the £5 million undeclared-gift probe was not suspended anymore. You called the bin the establishment and took the win as a clean sheet. That's the pose. The count is still a bin. The paperwork is still open. Give it a rest on the victory lap.
