Pink to make the Tories wink? Nigel Farage returns to the UK as his popularity with Conservative\u00a0supporters soars thanks to his I’m A Celeb stint in the jungle, with party’s 2019 voters preferring him to Rishi Sunak<\/h1>\n

Nigel Farage returned to Britain from Australia today – as a new poll revealed his I’m A Celebrity stint has left him more popular with Tory voters than Rishi Sunak.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The former politician turned television presenter and reality star touched down -seemingly alone – at Heathrow this morning after coming third in the ITV reality show.<\/p>\n

Beaming and decked out in two-tone pink he stepped into a political soap opera in Britain where attempts by Mr Sunak to solve the small boat crisis have left the Tories a shattered, divided shell.<\/p>\n

A new poll by JL Partners for the Sun today showed that Mr Farage’s popularity has risen by five points during his stint Down Under.<\/p>\n

He now has a net popularity of 18 with Tory voters from 2019, compared to -3 per cent for Mr Sunak, though both have heavy negative ratings with all voters, -29 to -41.<\/p>\n

Reports at the weekend said some Tories want him to link up with Boris Johnson to lead the Tories, though there is no realistic prospect of that happening before a general election as neither is currently an MP.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the airport, Mr Farage\u00a0referenced the polling, adding:\u00a0‘Well, it’s all very flattering, a little bit bewildering. It’s gonna take some time for me to sort of really take it on board. But fascinating, right?’<\/p>\n

He said the PM’s Commons victory on the Rwanda Bill last night still meant the Government was heading for ‘catastrophic defeat’.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘They’ve no idea what’s coming down the track towards them. And I think the last thing I heard before I went into the jungle was that (ex-PM David, now Lord) Cameron was back… if it’s got that bad, they must be in real trouble,’ he said.<\/p>\n

‘And I see that he’s just about managed to squeak through a vote on Rwanda. But I mean, it’s gonna make no difference at all. No, they’re in dire, dire trouble. And all Labour have to do is, frankly, not tear each other apart, and play safe and the election is theirs I think.’<\/p>\n

In a round of interviews this morning Home Secretary James Cleverly insisted Conservatives are ‘united’ in a desire to get the legislation right<\/p>\n

Mr Sunak faces the final PMQs of the year today after he dramatically saw off a Tory mutiny on his Rwanda plan – for the moment.<\/p>\n

The premier will aim to send his troops in to the Christmas break on a positive note after yesterday’s extraordinary arm-twisting and coaxing.<\/p>\n

The emergency legislation designed to get deportation flights going cleared its first Commons hurdle by 313 votes to 269 – a majority of 44.<\/p>\n

However, dozens of MPs abstained – with grim threats from both the wings of the party to crash the Bill when it returns to Parliament in January.<\/p>\n

Rebels on the Tory Right say the will ‘kill’ the new laws unless Mr Sunak toughens them up, while there are complaints from the One Nation faction that it already goes too far in watering down international human right rules.<\/p>\n

But in a round of interviews this morning James Cleverly insisted Conservatives are ‘united’ in a desire to get the legislation right.<\/p>\n

He risked fuelling tensions with right-wingers by suggesting they would be harming their own interests by blocking the Bill.<\/p>\n
