Has the implosion started? "Beware the ides of May" to paraphrase. Certainly looks like it may have. Maybe they're going to schism into a batsh*t faction and a not crazy just a dick faction.

I like the fact he hasn't taken the £650K of short money. He'll probably end up taking it though, or £649K maybe.
Optimistic as ever |

Fighting like cats in a sack Nigel Farage's chief of staff has been sacked after claims he helped turn the UKIP leader into a "snarling, thin-skinned, aggressive" man. Raheem Kassam is one of two advisers to be singled out for criticism by UKIP MEP Patrick O'Flynn in a Times article. Mr O'Flynn claimed Mr Farage had fallen under the influence of "aggressive" advisers and risked turning the party into a "personality cult". Mr O'Flynn's article sparked a bitter row at the top of UKIP over whether Mr Farage should step down as leader. He stood down as party leader after failing to win the South Thanet seat in the general election, but was reinstated three days later when the party refused to accept his resignation. There is now a very clear divide at the top of UKIP. On one side there is Patrick O'Flynn, Douglas Carswell and another senior official who was prominent during the election campaign. On the other side is Nigel Farage, a tight circle of senior aides and the millionaire donor Arron Banks. Mr Farage said he was "persuaded" by "overwhelming" evidence from UKIP members that they wanted him at the top. It surprised some, including the party's only MP Mr Carswell. It's what lies behind Mr O'Flynn's claims that UKIP could be seen as an "absolute monarchy".

Seems a lot of in-fighting happening in the 'Corridors of power' at UKIP.Doesn't appear to be a happy or united ship. Edited by Willo (14 May 2015 7.41pm)

Would not be surprised if he confirmed he was stepping down for good as leader. Interesting times for UKIP.
