7:27Now PlayingNigel Farage has announced he will be making an ‘emergency’ announcement about the general election.
What he plans to say is unclear at the moment but he has recently revealed his aim of ‘taking over’ the Tory party after the election.
LBC's political editor Natasha Clark and Shelagh Fogarty speculate on what could be announced at 4pm today. Mr Farage has previously ruled himself out of standing as a candidate in the general election because of the "very short notice".
However two days ago Mr Farage hinted he may be considering standing as an MP, saying he would be an “idiot” not to consider a change of heart.
At an event in Nottinghamshire on Saturday, Mr Farage says he has had "deep regrets" about choosing not to stand. He told Nottinghamshire Live that “any man that rules out anything for the future is an idiot."
Last month he was asked why he would not stand as an MP candidate for Reform UK and said: “I think I'm more use to Reform UK nationally and more use, frankly, to the national debate being out and about in the country."
