NIGEL Farage swapped ballots for ballroom as he danced with former model Jodie Marsh at a fundraiser for her animal charity.
The Reform UK leader, 61, proved he was the life of the party during the bash at Quendon Hall in Essex last night.

Farage donned a dark-blue velvet suit for the event, while documentary maker Jodie opted for a stunning dark green gown.
The unlikely duo became the perfect dance partners during the charity ball, which she hosted to raise funds for her Fripps Farm Animal Sanctuary.
It was opened by Jodie in 2020 and she currently pays for the centre out of her own pocket.
The evening hoped to generate some extra income in aid of animal welfare and the sanctuary’s ongoing rescue work.
As well as the political heavyweight, several other guests of honour were in attendance at the bash.
Footage showed Spandau Ballet singer Tony Hadley performing at Friday night’s fundraiser.
Eastenders favourite Jessie Wallace and Rod Stewart‘s son Alastair were also spotted dancing during the festivities.
Despite not being there in person, it is understood that Oasis star Noel Gallagher donated a guitar and two tickets to be auctioned for the event, which raised £6,000.
Posts on the Fripps Farm Instagram page showed Jodie shaving off one attendee’s hair to raise money for the charity.
Posing with both friends and family during the evening, she hailed them as “the best supporters to have”.
On the official website, Fripps Farm is described as a “loving home” to unwanted animals.
It says: “Owned by former model and documentary maker Jodie Marsh, Fripps Farm is currently home to over 250 animals, many of which have been saved from slaughter.
“Jodie gives a loving home to animals that are either unwanted or in danger of being put to sleep/slaughtered.
“With the correct nutrition, care and expertise Jodie has also brought sick or injured animals back from the brink of death.
“Followers of the farm can clearly see how loved the animals are and how special Jodie’s bond is with them.
“All animals welcome at Fripps Farm.”
