Ukipwatch don't want to be identified anymore, and Chip may have hit the nail on the head re the Hain issues.
The secretive little darlings have decided to use the 'private domain services' of register.com. domaindiscreet.com is an anonymising service; the admin address details resolve to a business sector on Willow Street, Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. 
So much for transparency!!!

PRIVATE DOMAIN REGISTRATION ADDENDUM
last updated February 7, 2006
This Private Domain Registration Addendum (the "Addendum") between you ("you", "your" or "Customer") and Register.com, Inc. d/b/a DomainDiscreet.com ("Register.com"), and sets forth the terms and conditions of your use of Register.com's private domain registration services (the "Private Registration Service"). ...
- THE SERVICES
If you subscribe to the Private Registration Services, each domain name registration which you control and which you designate (the "Private Registration Domains") will be registered in the name of DomainDiscreet.com, as registrant. Your name, postal address, email address, phone and fax numbers shall be kept confidential, subject to Section 6 of this Agreement. The following information (and not your personal information) will be made publicly available in the "Whois" directory, as required by ICANN policy, for each Private Registration Domain:
- An email address, postal address and phone and facsimile number for the registrant, administrative, technical, and billing contacts ("Private Registration Addresses" of Domaindiscreet.com);
- The primary and secondary domain name servers you designate for the Private Registration Domain(s);
- The Private Registration Domain's original date of registration and expiration date;
- The identity of your registrar
- A disclaimer referring to IP and law enforcement inquiries and identified contacts
- RETENTION OF RIGHTS TO THE DOMAIN NAME
While you will not be listed as the registrant for the Private Registration Domains, other than as described in this Agreement, DomainDiscreet.com will not act to use, modify, or control the Private Registration Domain(s). Subject to all the other terms of this Addendum and the Services Agreement, you will retain abilities of a domain name registrant, including
- the ability to transfer, or assign each Private Registration Domain;
- the ability to manage the use of each Private Registration Domain(s), including the DNS settings to which each domain name points;
- the ability to cancel each Private Registration Domain
- the ability to renew each Private Registration Domain upon expiration (subject to Register.com's applicable rules and policies);
- the ability to cancel your Private Registration Services so that you are listed as the Registrant; and
- the ability to initially resolve any and all monetary, creditor or other legal claims that arise in connection with your Private Registration Domain(s), subject to the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
IMPORTANT: THE PRIVATE REGISTRATION SERVICES ARE NOT A GENERAL MAIL FORWARDING SERVICE. You agree that you will not provide any third party with the Private Registration Addresses for the purpose of having such third party transmit communications to you through Register.com. Third parties may obtain the Private Registration Addresses listed in the Whois directory by their own initiative, but you agree that you will not be the one to provide the Private Registration Addresses to such third parties.
- ....
- TERM OF SERVICES
Private Registration Services shall be renewed only in increments of one year. If the term of a domain name registration expires prior to the end of the term of the Private Registration Services, the Private Registration Services will automatically terminate. You understand that there will be no refund for any resulting unused portion of a Private Registration Services term.
If the Private Registration Service expires before the end of the domain name registration term while the registration term the Personal Whois Data will be listed in the WHOIS record and the communications forwarding services specified in section 7 will no longer be provided.
