Trouble within UKIP that is.

 

Farage "resigns". Other members of UKIP have their eyes on the job of leader.

 

THEN, the ruling board refuse to accept his resignation. The only UKIP MP, Douglas Carswell has repeatedly refused to endorse Farage as leader again and when asked multiple times if he'd quit UKIP to become an Independent he said "No comment".

 

Suzanne Evans had been tipped to replace Farage and on the news that Farage would take up leadership again said "It's exactly what I expected hence I played down my appointment."

 

It didn't take long did it? Farage, the life and soul of the local boozer has made UKIP a laughing stock with his antics and some of the hierachy seem ready to tear the party apart.

 

I wonder what the UKIP voters think of that lot?

Please enlighten us all - which specific members have ever said they wanted to be leader?  Or is this yet another of your 'anti UKIP, anti anyone' but the main two parties carp?

Suzanne Evans was actually nominated by Mr Farage to be interim leader, she was said to be delighted that Nigel Farage had agreed to stay after a unanimous vote to keep him as leader. Douglas Carswell said from the start he did not want to be leader.

Bet many a party leader would like to be a laughing stock and bring in 4 million votes!

Sensationalist twoddle I think - if you keep this up CD you'll be in line for a job at the Sun! ....or as a pollster for the Labour Party!
