ANU Senior Lecturer Pat Leslie says the investigation into Reform UK Leader Nigel Farage will “likely” be concluded by the end of the year. “As he has resigned his post as an MP, the investigation has been suspended for now,” Mr Leslie told Sky News Australia. “It will very likely, assuming that he does prevail over Count Binface, continue once he’s back. “What can happen after that depends on the severity of the penalty decided. “The most likely outcome at this point is that he will be subject to a recall petition, which is if 10 per cent of the electors in a constituency sign a petition, then Nigel Farage will be recalled… and have to stand for another by-election.”
