A huge Nigel Farage sand mural has been washed away ahead of his face-off with Count Binface.

The Reform UK leader was etched into the sand by artist Fred Brown ahead of the local election.

The 54-year-old activist captioned the image with ‘Tax the Rich’ on the shoreline.

The uncanny beach portrait was completed at Bridlington beach, Yorkshire, as reported by Need To Know.

The piece was completed on 11 Aug.

Members of the public gawped at the sketch before the north sea quickly washed the piece away.

Farage can be seen cutting a rather grumpy pose in the sand.

The sketch was completed ahead of today’s (13 Aug) by-election in Clacton-On-Sea.

The polls have opened up with voters casting their ballots to decide his future as an MP.

The election was triggered after the Reform UK leader decided to stand down amidst massive scrutiny over his financial affairs.

Labour, the Tories, Lib Dems and Greens all boycotted the vote.

Fred Brown said: “Making plans for Nigel.

“I’ve looked at Clacton beach online and as far as I can tell it isn’t actually suitable for sand art.

“Anyway, here’s Nigel Farage on the beach, he’s not looking happy with today’s proposal.”

Fred’s artwork left members of the public in awe.

One person said: “Tide is turning on Reform.”

Another person added: “I can’t believe how good you are Fred at this.

“It’s like looking at a photo, spot on.”

One other person said: “Not a face I really want to look at, but it’s brilliant.”

Another commented: “Wow, incredible work.”
