As a constituency chairman I was called by UKIP to ask whether I wanted a leadership election and if so who I would vote for.
Suggested that I should consult the committee first, but it was my personal opinion that they wanted. This I gave but suggest that this is worth no more than that of an individual UKIP member (or member of the public for that matter).
It's wrong of Farage to claim that he and Knapman have party support. They will only know this when Knapman wins the leadership contest which I hope he has the sense to call very soon.
