New UKIP Appointments

The new Party Chairwoman is Petrina Holdsworth we are informed. Also that London's new Chairman is former Party Treasurer and newly elected NEC member John de Roeck. Biographical details of the new party chairwoman, as provided on the UKIP SE Candidates list are as follows:-

Petrina Holdsworth was brought up in Sussex. She went to London University where she read Law and was called to the Bar in 1975.

She practised for a few years specialising in criminal law and employment law.

She then sat as a Deputy Clerk to the Justices in Inner London for 11 years followed by a long stint as a Principal Crown Prosecutor with the CPS. She went back to the Bar finally retiring in 1997. Since then she has been a fundraiser for charity, run her own business and stood for Parliament in Mid Sussex. She is married with two grown-up children.


Is there finally somebody at the head of the party with a knowledge of the difference between 'right' and 'wrong'? Eleven years in the Crown Prosecution Service, would certainly indicate that might be the case, and the experience might indeed prove useful!

Fingers crossed!
