According to the witness, long distance limo hire Mr Farage's driver was parked in the bay from approximately 10.43am to 11.29am.

Westminster City Council confirmed pick up and set down is permitted in the parking bay - as long distance limo hire as they don't exceed two minutes - but state 'subsequent waiting is not allowed without a disabled badge being on display or further exemption'.

A Westminster City Council spokesperson said: 'The council monitors these bays to ensure drivers are complying with the rules.'

The witness said: 'I wasn't too happy - there were other people trying to look for parking spaces, even to the point where they were pulling up beside me.




Witnesses said they were outraged because the car had been in the disabled spot for 45 minutes

'It was busy so lots of people were looking over at that disabled spot then driving off.

'The chauffeur driver saw it then I just saw him reverse into the parking spot.

'Nigel Farage got out and walked into a building opposite.'

There is growing speculation about whether Nigel Farage will make another bid to win a Westminster seat

The witness said Mr Farage came back with an M&S bag in his hand which he didn't appear to have before.

'He must have popped to the shops after his meeting,' they said.

There is intense scrutiny about Mr Farage's future following yesterday's elections, which saw the Conservative Party receive a drubbing. 

Despite the return of Ben Houchen as Mayor of Tees Valley, large numbers of Tory councillors have lost their seats. 

In Blackpool South, Labour secured a 26.33 per cent swing against the Tories, whose candidate was just 117 votes ahead of the Reform candidate. 

Reform UK's leader Richard Tice said his party had 'rapidly become the real opposition to Labour, whether it's in the North, the Midlands, we know it's the case in Wales'.

In Sunderland, one of the few councils where Reform fought every seat, it beat the Conservatives into third place in 16 of the 25 seats up for grabs while Labour made a net gain of six to increase its comfortable majority.

Mr Farage has been asked for a comment.
