UKIP Uncovered
What motivates the leaders of the United Kingdom Independence Party?


Tuesday, October 26, 2004 

Rumours are circulating that Kilroy migh abandon his bid!

Worse the same report states that he might remain within the corruptly led party! The first report came from a reporter called Jimmy Burns and appeared in the Finacial Times I understand but I have found no link. It staes the following:-

Kilroy-Silk to drop UKIP leadership bid

Robert Kilroy-Silk is expected to offer to drop his bid for the
leadership of the UK Independence party today as part of a compromise
deal aimed at healing the rift in the party.


However, his expected insistence that the party should fight every constituency at the next general election, including seats held by Tory eurosceptics, might still make unity difficult. Roger Knapman, the UKIP leader, and his supporters have remained opposed to Mr Kilroy-Silk's
declared aim of "killing off" the Tory party, arguing that tactical alliances with eurosceptic Conservatives should be considered. Despite his continuing public defiance over the weekend, Mr Kilroy-Silk, a UKIP MEP, appears to have conceded that he cannot force the party's
leadership to make way for him in the run-up to the next general election. Jimmy Burns

We must hope this is disinformation from the fantatically eurofederalist financial paper. Elsewhere the only hint such a move comes from ePolitix linked here Its headline carries the same import as the FT report but again without any source or supposed basis for the supposition.

CHAOS CONTINUES WITHIN THE PARTY HOWEVER - this on the NEC

Members of the N.E.C., many of them utterly fed up with a group around Nigel Farage publishing distorted stories of 'surveys' on the UKIP website, which later have to be amended, and then learning of unauthorised telephone surveys carried out by what is thought to be Nigel Farage's private company 'Ashford Employment Ltd'., now have difficulty knowing when the next N.E.C. meeting is.

The N.E.C. decided at its last meeting it would be on Monday 15 November. Earlier this morning, N.E.C.members received what purported to be an authoritative e-mail from Party Secretary, Tony Stone, telling them it had been put off until 22 November. Seconds later, an e-mail from Petrina Holdsworth was sent out stating that the next meeting had been brought forward to Monday 1 November.

Who's in charge?"
