UKIP's Deputy Leader and New Landlord

A disingenuous Press Release was issued by UKIP's Party Chairman overnight, in effect claiming that due to increasing membership numbers the party could no longer afford to locate itself in London. Once again with David Lott, all Logic is turned on its head - we have had the Lott Law from Wales: the more campaign money spent the less votes gained. Now we have Lott's Law of Diminishing Income: the more the members the less the cash for rent.

Don't believe me! Herewith the words from the statement:

"With the party growing at a phenomenal rate, the necessary space in central London would prove prohibitively expensive.

The Party's Deputy Leader and new Landlord has also been the topic of overnight debate following this announcement. Party members should be reminded of his close involvement in the theft of copyright of the BBC programme that Nigel Farage breached Trading Standards Law to market.

Nattrass's involvement was only touched upon in our earlier report, but there have been internet exchanges on this matter within the last month in which he clearly admits both the financing and making of the videos in Birmingham.

Given the tendency of some within UKIP's Leadership to skirt if not, as in this case, cross the borders of the law, not to mention all the more recent suspicions such as those hanging over the Ashford operation, it would seem to be a curious decision by those NEC members who called the Emergency NEC meeting last week and expressed a desire to effect essential reforms. Proper controls would seem much harder to maintain with day to day activities centred in Birmingham.

UKIP will become an even more tightly controlled, secretive and non-accountable party than it has been to date. It appears the reformers have been routed.
