I wrote in posting number 51 to this thread this morning: "I wonder if Mr. Spink might want to stand as a UKIP candidate in next year's EU Election too."
He has an established record of being a fine opponent of the vile EU and, with his other considerable political experience, is now (like former Conservative MP Mr. Christopher Gill) one of the leading members of UKIP.
I would imagine that there are large number in UKIP who would vote for Mr. Bob Spink MP should he put his name forward for consideration to be a candidate for the 2009 EU Elections.
I emphasise that Mr. Spink has not issued any statement saying that he is interested in being a candidate in next year's EU Election. I think he can retain Castle Point at the next General Election for UKIP thus becoming the first person to be elected to the House of Commons as a UKIP MP.
