Stopping a leaking toilet - float not working, continually fills into overflow valve

Stopping a leaking toilet - float not working, continually fills into overflow valve

Hi,

My toilet continually fills into the overflow pipe. I've tried adjusting the float clip (see picture) to stop the flow, but it doesn't matter if the clip is right at the bottom or the top, water will always continue to drip into the overflow pipe once the cistern is full.

The valve mechanism on the float is working because if I pull it up by hand, the cistern stops filling.

How straightforward is this to fix? How can I be sure I'm ordering the right replacement parts online?
