The bizarre clip features the Reform UK leader lip-syncing to a rap which talks up his prospects of winning a future general election.
Nigel Farage has branched out into music after sharing a video during which he dances while wearing a gold chain and white fur coat. The bizarre seemingly AI generated clip features the Reform UK leader lip-syncing to a rap which talks up his prospects of winning a future general election.
The lyric declares that “2029 now looks so right” before Mr Farage, flanked by several tracksuit-wearing backing dancers, cavorts and pirouettes in front of Clacton Pier. The scene then switches to show him apparently in a nightclub, where he stares into the camera and says: “Nigel Farage: Prime Minister of the pub, of the pint, of the people. Bo Selecta!” His eyes then light up and Union flags appear next to them.

It is not the first time Farage, who shared the clip on X with the comment: “A little bit of fun”, has showcased his flair for performance; in October 2023, he was filmed dancing with Priti Patel to Frank Sinatra‘s “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” at the Conservative Party Conference, which he was covering for GB News.
Five years earlier, he seized the opportunity to poke fun at Theresa May after the then-PM sashayed her way to the podium to make her speech to the same event, to the strains of ABBA’s “Dancing Queen”.
Shortly afterwards, the then-Brexit Party leader likewise took to the stage to perform his own version of Ms May’s awkward moves.
Mr Farage’s theatrical approach to politics appears resonated with a portion of the electorate. Recent polling indicates that Reform UK is experiencing an increase in support.

According to a July 2025 MRP poll, Reform UK is projected to become the largest party in Parliament, with an estimated 290 seats, ahead of both Labour and the Conservatives.
A June 2025 poll by Electoral Calculus suggests Reform UK could secure 31% of the vote, compared with 22% for Labour and 19% for the Conservatives, potentially winning an outright majority with 377 seats.
This surge coincides with public concerns over the government’s handling of immigration and asylum policies. A YouGov poll found that 71% of voters feel Prime Minister Keir Starmer is mishandling the asylum hotel issue, with dissatisfaction extending to many Labour voters.
If Reform UK gains power, Mr Farage has proposed radical measures including mass deportations and withdrawal from certain human rights frameworks.
