Nigel Farage's phoney by-election was an attempt to dodge scrutiny over his £5m donation. He can’t dodge it forever.
Now he’s back in Westminster, the investigation must resume.

Pleasure to meet @LisaSmartMP in Parliament today to talk about the cost to both people’s health and wellbeing and to the wider economy of the failure to invest in NHS dentistry.

Such an important point by @FairElectionsUK Vice Chair @LisaSmartMP at @UKandEU Lunch Hour.
