UKRAP in disarray 3974176704

An amateur-show political party all adrift after their "one-trick pony" leader quits...

That sounds a bit like rowing out to the middle of a lake --  and then throwing your oars away overboard --  doesn't it..

So much drama - so much intrigue and all due to the 17 minute delay in getting his application in on time?

Woolfe was backed by many of the Faragists, including Arron Banks, the major Ukip donor who bankrolled an influential anti-EU group during the referendum.

They have claimed the move against their candidate is the result of a coup led by those close to Douglas Carswell, the Ukip MP and critic of Farage, and Neil Hamilton, the former Tory Conservative MP. Suzanne Evans, the former deputy chair, who had clashed with Farage, is backing Duffy.
A backlash started immediately as three members of the national executive committee (NEC) resigned – Victoria Ayling, Mick McGough and Ray Finch. In a joint letter, they said members of the NEC had placed “personal ambitions, loyalties and jealousies at the heart of their decision-making” and displayed an “escalating megalomania”.
It appears that the under current running pre-Bexit is still deeply engrained in your local political daily process.  So what's the solution '?', does he {woolfe} just let this go and remain seated?
