Lisa Duffy wants to an MEP. Nigel Farage wants her to be an MEP. In fact Mr Farage wants her to be the "lead female candidate." She was made head of Young Independence as Mr Farage wanted to raise her profile prior to the selection process. She was 'voted' onto the NEC for the same reason. Mr Farage has promised her he will do everything possible to get her on the final list.

Peter Reeve, her boyfriend and RO for the Eastern Region has been promoting her at every possible opportunity in the East. He has also been promoting Mr Campbell Bannerman for the same reason. He wants them to be the 'lead candidates in the East'.

Miss Duffy is simply using Young Independence and the NEC as a means to an end. She is a career politician who wants to get her snout in the Euro trough.

If however she does not get elected as an MEP she has been promised a well paid job working for one of the new MEPs.
