Nigel Farage: 'I'd probably stand in Thanet by-election'

Former UKIP leader Nigel Farage has said he would probably stand again in Thanet South, if there was a by-election.

Kent Police and the Electoral Commission are investigating whether the Conservatives broke the law in 2015 by failing to properly declare election expenses.

A Conservative spokesman said: "All local spending was correctly declared. We are co-operating with the ongoing investigations."

Mr Farage, who came second to the Conservatives in the seat, has run for Parliament seven times, unsuccessfully.
