Campaigning with Kilroy

The Scotsman has been observing Kiroy's campaigning style in Northamptonshire, and from the description it seems no wonder UKIP are now predicted to get 20 per cent of the vote on 10th June, see report on the latest YouGov in the next post.

The full article may be read from this link but the opening paragraph gives the flavour:-

MOST politicians use the phrase "pressing the flesh" with a certain disdain. Not Robert Kilroy-Silk. He doesn’t just press flesh, he grabs it, holds it, clings to it as if for dear life. Everyone passing within 10ft of him is liable to be grabbed by the hand, patted on the arm, clapped on the back. Anyone directly in his path gets the full treatment: double-hand clasps, bear-hugs, cuddles, kisses on as many cheeks as are visible. Kilroy doesn’t invade your personal space, he sends in troops and tanks with air support, annexes it and proclaims it part of the Greater Kilroy Empire.
