UKIP's would-be leader Robert Kilroy-Silk's declaration he wanted to "kill" the Tories is understood to have been the final straw for Mr Sykes, who has twice left the Conservative Party because of its policy on Europe.
I reckon he realised that the party wasn't going to let him run the agenda and had a tantrum.

UKIP MEP Mr Farage said the party had lost sight of its key objective amid the euphoria over recent election results. "We have never been about UKIP as a party, as a tribe, being the most important thing," he told Today. "The most important thing to us is we get out of the EU and get back to a simply free trade agreement. "In my opinion, we should not fighting against sitting Tory and Labour MPs who are prepared to say the right things."
I think that Mr Farage should stop this now. The party voted massively against his motion and he should stick by that and support our decision.
