Again, spot on. I'm glad I didn't rejoin the Party like some others did after we got the news of Spink's defection if all that's going to happen as a result is that Spink is going to go on the MEP list and stand down from the Commons.

If UKIP's going to go down the 'jobs for the boys' route they're going to lose all credibility and will be no better than the 'big 3'.
