I think the whole leadership situation is getting out of hand to be frank. As far as I am aware the leadership is not up for negotiation, and no one has brought about any procedures of no-confidence - if any procedures are started obviously the question will be answered quite differently.
UKIP need to be focussing on public image, and the aftermath of the Kilroy-Silk debacle - regardless of whether people supported his leadership bid or not, the fact is UKIPs image has been tarnished.
As far as I personally am concerned, any leadership issues brought about now can only be detrimental to UKIPs standing in the forthcoming General Election - rather than getting involved in power struggles we should be focussing on winning back any UKIP voters who may be straying or who are sitting on the fence as a result of the very public questioning of leadership.
Out of interest, what is the general concensus here? What is the feeling towards current leadership amongst forum users?
I cannot answer this on behalf of Nigel Farage, as I have not asked him, however I wanted to answer as soon as possible! Any answers to questions I do give will not be representative of anyone other than myself unless duly stated. I will, however, pass on any comments to Nigel if people wish. Bear in mind that I shall not be in contact with Nigel until Saturday now.
Many thanks,
Katy
