Well they won't be working like the rest of us. Who employs a dedicated offence taker with a degree in Media studies? :D

Meanwhile at UKIP High Command:

Quote:

UKIP is refusing to pay scandal-hit leader Henry Bolton a penny in salary in a bid to oust him by penury.

The move by the anti-EU party’s top panel to “starve” him out leaves their boss penniless, as he has no other form of income.

The revelation comes after a vicious party civil war deepened yesterday when 16 out of 24 frontbench spokesmen walked out on Mr Bolton.

In extraordinary scenes, he again refused to resign despite bosses’ no confidence vote against him on Sunday after his scandalous fling with racist 25-year-old model Jo Marney.

Farage on R4 Today this morning:

Quote:

"If an EGM (extraordinary general meeting) was held tomorrow, Henry Bolton would lose it very heavily," he said.

"Of that there is no question. But he has a month to make the case and he has the microphone because he now has a huge profile, maybe not for all the right reasons.

"If he is able, in the space of a month, to put together a new constitution and a new management structure that shows the leader needs to be able to lead and not be held back by a failed organisation, he may just win the day."

Yes, it would also be Aaron Banks who funds any new Farage-Led party; for the sake of appearances.

I know you're on the wind-up but foreign funding of parties is forbidden.

Nigel could also make a career in film; with minimal make-up, he could be the lead in a bio on Gary Oldman :). We will fight the beeches on the beaches.

Sounds terribly undemocratic to me. Why not call another ballot, the party seems a fan of those?

UKIP facing financial ruin.

UKIP facing financial ruin over East Yorkshire MEP's £670k libel legal fees

The party has been ordered to foot some of the £670,000 bill for Jane Collins

The fallout from an East Yorkshire MEP’s libel case could leave UKIP on the brink of financial ruin after a shock High Court ruling.

UKIP has been ordered to pay their share of the £670,000 in legal fees and costs after Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire MEP, Jane Collins, was ruled to have libelled three Labour MPs .

Mr Justice Mark Warby ruled on Thursday, February 15, that “UKIP should pay the claimants’ costs from March 20, 201, to June 23, 2015, and their costs of the assessment” – a sum which Labour sources say could be as high as £200,000.

UKIP are known to be struggling financially, with beleaguered leader Henry Bolton saying another leadership contest – in what would be their fourth in less than three years – could bankrupt the party.

And only last week, John Bickley, the party’s treasurer, wrote that the party had been “living hand to mouth since 2015” and explained that its finances were under great pressure.

Snowflake Bolton is melting under the pressure again, whinging about his press coverage.
As famous as a Blackpool burger bar, Ukip leader Henry Bolton is now claiming that "There's probably been nothing like that since the Profumo affair or Diana and Dodi al Fayed"
Bless him.

And he's gone...

UKIP members have voted to sack leader Henry Bolton after controversy over racist messages sent by his partner.

The former army officer's fate was decided after 63% voted to back a no confidence motion at an extraordinary general meeting in Birmingham.

He had faced calls to quit after it emerged his partner Jo Marney sent racist messages about Meghan Markle.

The party will announce an interim leader later and an leadership election will take place within 90 days.

Mr Bolton, who had been in the job for less than six months, was elected in September in the wake of UKIP's disastrous performance in last year's general election.

The party's national executive committee expressed no confidence in him last month, triggering the ballot.

Outgoing chairman Paul Oakden said: "Henry Bolton has been removed by the democratic decision of the membership".

Mr Bolton lost the no confidence motion by 867 votes to 500.
They've gone through 6 leaders in 16 months (Nige served twice).
