Demand for UKIP Emergency General Meeting Grows!

News reaches 'UKIP Uncovered' of more moves towards holding an Emergency Meeting of UKIP, if the leadership does not concede a leadership election.

We hear that another Midlands Branch, like Chester, has overturned the view of its Chairman by holding a Branch Committee meeting last week. The vote went 10-0, with two abstentions, (a) in favour of a leadership election ASAP and (b) backing Robert Kilroy-Silk to be Party Leader.

Meanwhile a Branch in the Home Counties is due to meet later this week, when a resolution will be tabled by one of the officers expressing no confidence in the N.E.C. of UKIP - and calling on them to resign. A further development is that another UKIP Chairman, whose Branch recently and unanimously called for a leadership contest - and wants to see Robert Kilroy-Silk installed as leader (understood to be from the east of England) is organising a 'round robin' letter to those Branches which appear to favour a leadership contest. At the latest count, this was over 60.

This blog will continue to offer regular updates of all UKIP developments and moves towards reform of the party as has been the case for more than eighteen momths.
