Nigel Farage, the UK Independence Party candidate, had an extraordinary escape after his plane flipped upside down and nosedived into a field during an election stunt. The politician was pulled semi-conscious from the wreckage, his face swollen and blood running across his cheek, after the accident at Hinton-in-the-Hedges airfield, near Brackley, Northants

Police said that the pilot and Mr Farage, who is contesting Speaker John Bercow’s seat in Buckingham, were “extremely lucky” to have walked away from the crash with only minor injuries
The aircraft was pulling a Ukip banner which got wrapped up in the tail fin of the aircraft when it took off just after 8am
