I would not say my loyalty is blind as regards Mr Knapman nor would I seek to dimish any members role in the party however long he/she had been in it. Mr Knapman was elected unopposed I do not seek to dispute that but that is hardly his fault no more than it was Mr Howards as regards the Tory Party. We do need to work seriously at developing a wide range of policys for the General Election and we need to do it fast. My worry is that this process will be hindered by these constant divisions. If RKS is not to be leader what do you think he should do? What role in UKIP would you like to see him in if he is not to be leader. I agree with Anthony that Shadow Home Secretary would suit him well, its a big job with plenty of opportunity to hold the Goverment and Oppsition to account. Incidently I say that as someone who is very much a Liberal compared to RKS on imigration and Law and Order.
