'Another rotten borough': Nigel Farage lashes out after observers warn Labour's by-election win in Peterborough was 'like corrupt Kazakhstan' as police probe five cases of 'malpractice'
Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage told MailOnline the constituency looked like 'another rotten borough' after his candidate was narrowly defeated earlier this month. Election experts Democracy Volunteers have said the sight of people photographing their completed ballot papers was something they had only ever seen in Kazakhstan 'many years ago'. The oil-rich state has until recently had only one president since it broke with the Soviet Union in 1991, with claims that even last Sunday's election was rigged. Labour's victory by just 683 votes over the Brexit Party in Peterborough was mired in controversy last week after The Mail on Sunday revealed claims that a convicted vote rigger was at the centre of the party's campaign. Cambridgeshire Police have since revealed they are investigating five complaints of electoral malpractice, including bribery.
