must seek a win win situation
I seem to have been one of the fe London branch chairman who participated in the recent phone poll of opinion about RKS's bid for leadership.
I want to say one thing. We must ask RKS and UKIP leadership to seek a win win situation.
Like others I believe RKS can be a great benefit for UKIP. Like others I object to the method he has shown recently. His diplomacy in public speaking leaves something to be desired (the intent or content for me is not in dispute). But even someone as politically incorrect as me has learnt that I should try to get my message across persuasively rather than bluntly.
Maybe the ideal situation is where RKS effectively does become leader, but in a transitioned managed way which still affords UKIPs established leaders a equally infuential voice in UKIP policy, strategy and tactics. I have concerns about RKS's style but my chief reservations about him are that he has displayed a blundering style rather than a skilled-leader, team oriented articulate and persuasive style.
I hope that RKS and our established leadership put together an innovative package that gives everybody what they want.
