Far from voting preferences but I am fascinated to read about them - anyone else?
I do wonder if the party can survive the recent Henry Bolton incident and his refusal to budge

If it hadn't been for the recent indiscretions, I would have been hard-pushed to even name the current UKIP leader. You like to hope it's because they're becoming increasingly irrelevant, but I fear any such irrelevance is because previously-UKIP-minded folks are finding themselves represented by the establishment and not needing to look for an alternative anymore.
While we're vaguely on the subject, it absolutely blows my mind that Nigel Farage still gets his hideous hypocritical bigoted face all over the news when he's not the leader of a political party, has never been an MP, and makes it a point of pride to do as little work as MEP as possible. Now there's someone who IS irrelevant and yet is still all over the papers and the TV. Baffling!

A good chance for UKIP to move on from their narrow minded racist and homophobic past.
And appoint someone who can move the party forward to the next general election - step up Katie Hopkin as their next leader.

I would suggest he gets "the oxygen of publicity" because he is a good quote for the popular press and appears full of bonhomie - or is that bullsh*t? |

Thanks,
I am no royalist, people can say what they want about the Royal family their spouses and upcoming spouses, however I do not tolerate someone being abused because of their skin colour. Unfortunately I have now seen photos of Henry Bolton latest fling (Jo Marney), christ she is on the grim side herself, cannot believe she models and I cannot imagine her hanging above a fireplace.
