British Democracy Forum - View Single Post - Leader of the UKIP accused of selling out

Aren't we drifting a bit off the main point? Farage has got himself into the papers for drunkenness, financial rumours about Ashford won't go away -and another call centre has opened up in Ramsgate. Now comes the news that he has signed UKIP up to a declaration endorsing subsidiarity and the CAP. He is a disaster as a leader. If UKIP are going to gain any credibility, they should ditch him. Te Lib Dems showed less mercy to Kennedy for a fraction of the misdemeanours NF has committed

Knapman has been right to make a stand - I hope he follows this up by calling for Farage to resign. If UKIP believe Britain can manage without the EU, but say (as some on tis forum seem to be) that it cannot survive without its current leader, then they have no hope of ever going anywhere. Farage is the biggest hindrance to the emergence of a strong, credible Euro-withdrawalist party.
