It would appear that the precedent has been set, and unsolicited emails are in fact perfectly acceptable during the campaign, according to the Returning Officer.
Although many branch chairmen and other party members have been operating under the impression that they cannot send unsolicited letters, this is in fact false information.
The only rule that needs to be adhered to is that official UKIP lists cannot be used. However, if you have built up your own list of contacts over the years, it would seem that this is perfectly acceptable.
So, all those Richard supporters out there, start emailing everyone in your address book and spread the good word.
