If only half of the article is true, which confirms much of what I believe, then UKIP still has a few problems to resolve BEFORE we will ever be taken seriously :cry:

Depends which half.

It is true that UKIP hq is on an industrial estate in Devon! :shock:

It is true that the current party leader is Nigel Farage! :shock:

It is probably true that our biggest donor at present is an ex-bookie! :shock:

etc.

It is clearly the other half that concerns me :x

Members will be right to be concerned about the "other non compliance issues " which have not been alluded to by Dr. Whittaker .
We can only hope that they do not amount to a great deal and are of a technical nature .

"Desperate D'Ancona". I like it.

More like 'D'An, D'An, the lavatory man'

He is a keen supporter of David Cameron and is, I think, editor of The Spectator.

That's right Britannist. Some of Cameron's other early supporters in the press seem to have become more sceptical or even hostile but D'Ancona remains chief lickspittle.

I suppose he thinks there could be something in it for him.

This talentless tub of lard is the son of a Maltese footballer.

Interesting. I had wondered where the name d'Ancona came from.

No doubt there will be a furtherance of the smear campaign against us in tomorrow's papers.

Let's hope so, cos it seems to help.

I can but agree.
