UKIP's New Treasurer - Stuart Wheeler
The profile in The Independent on Sunday this morning, linked here makes interesting reading. The dis- appointing result at the Oldham East and Saddleworth by-election shows that much more than money is needed for UKIP to get across the ever more desperately important anti-EU message.Labels: Stuart Wheeler

Ex-Tory Backer Wheeler gives UKIP 100,000
The report is in The Independent on Sunday, linked here but the interview from the News of the World. A quote:
One of the Conservative Party's biggest financial backers in effect defected to the UK Independence Party last night, claiming he was fed up with David Cameron's policy on Europe.
Spread-betting millionaire Stuart Wheeler said he doubted the Tory leader would hold a referendum on the EU's Lisbon Treaty – and revealed he is giving £100,000 to the Euro-sceptic Ukip. Mr Wheeler told the News of the World he would vote for Ukip in European polls in June.
The paper said that Mr Wheeler now intended to vote for Ukip - which campaigns for withdrawal from the EU - in the European parliamentary elections in June, although he would continue to support the Tories the local and general elections.
