Oh dear. More UKIP fun and games.

“Ukip has descended into virtual civil war after its embattled leader, Henry Bolton, accused members of plotting “an organised coup” against him, after he was seen having dinner with his former girlfriend, who has been suspended from the party for racism.

Amid predictions Bolton could face a vote of no confidence by Ukip’s national executive this weekend, he insisted he would hold on to the post despite the controversy over his ties to Jo Marney, a 25-year-old activist and model, whom he said in an interview on Wednesday that he still loved and could get back together with.”

Looks like Gordon’s wine bar. It is dark in there but clearly not dark enough!

"An organised coup"? Organised? He's got a sense of humour.

I sincerely hope UKIP struggle on. Firstly they're funny. Secondly it keeps some of their membership out of the mainstream parties. The Conservatives have a tiny membership and the last thing we need is a bunch of kippers swelling the ranks.

Panto season has not finished, they seem to lurch like Frankentein's monster from one disaster to the next.
But then....that doesn't seem to be that unusual in modern UK political partiesgangs.

Whats so amusing, is that only a couple of years ago, some in here were expecting several UKIP MPs....

Its good to see UKIP returned to the laughing stock they should be.

It would be funny if the Kippers had not persuaded 52 per cent of the public to shoot themselves in the face.

That has to be better than being told how to shoot oneself in the face.

“A leading UKIP politician has quit the party saying its leader Henry Bolton is "not the right person for the job" and its influence over Brexit is waning.

Jonathan Arnott, MEP for the North East of England, said he had lost confidence in Mr Bolton but thought no better of those "jockeying" to replace him.

Because of course that’s exactly what they did and exactly why it’s pretty pointless discussing anything Brxit related with you. If you’d said some (unquantified) of the 52% of those that voted June 16 I’d have agreed with the point but to state that 52 % of the public were persuaded to shoot themselves in the foot is bk - only 75% of the population that were eligible to vote did so.

Now you'll struggle to find anybody admitting to actually voting for them.

Brexit as a whole will likely be similar in years to come.
