Will Kilroy run in Hodge Hill, Birmingham?

Now we will see the mettle of UKIP's celebrity recruit! So far the party has only officially chickened out of the Leicester South by-election. The other, also being run on 15th July is tantalisingly being held in the very constituency of Kilroy's birthplace, according to this report from icBirmingham linked from here. The following quote comes from their report:-

The United Kingdom Independence-Party has denied its new poster-boy Euro-MP Robert Kilroy-Silk, is putting himself forward.

Kilroy was born and raised in Hodge Hill and there is a momentum behind the party following its success in this month's European elections.

But West Midlands MEP Mike Nattrass, the deputy leader of UKIP, said the party's war chest was for the general election.

He said: "It costs a lot to run an election campaign, even a byelection. There is also a general election coming so it may be a matter of months before we have to go through it all again."

Kilroy may have his own cash to fund a campaign, however.


HERE WE HAVE DEMONSTRATED THE CHARACTER FAILINGS OF THOSE WHO NOW RUN UKIP.

DEPUTY LEADER NATTRASS NOW NICELY ABOARD THE EU GRAVY TRAIN - THANKS TO KILROY - REPORTEDLY NOT PREPARED TO SPEND EITHER EFFORT OR A PENNY OF PARTY FUNDS IN THIS IDEAL BY-ELECTION TO PROPEL THIS GREAT MESSENGER FOR THE ANTI-EU CAUSE INTO THE MOTHER OF PARLIAMENTS - WHERE REAL PROGRESS AND IMPACT COULD AT LAST BE MADE!
