Farage resigned to try to avoid the parliamentary standards committee over his undeclared millions in income. He framed it as letting the voters decide. That's not how it works - its a pure PR move. If he wins again he still gets investigated.

The other parties declined to stand candidates as they did not want to play Farage's silly game - they want to investigate him.

Farage has broken no laws. The committee is desperately trying to prevent him from becoming PM, which is inevitable if they don't murder him first.
