Paul Oakden, the Chairan of UKIP made a statement concerning the position of the leader of UKIP – a party which has had a farcical record of replacing its leader in the wake of the retirement of Nigel Farage:
“In an emergency meeting of the UKIP National Executive today, a discussion took place on recent press coverage of the party leader, Henry Bolton.
“Having heard a statement from Mr Bolton, the NEC asked a number of questions pertaining to that coverage.
“At the conclusion of that discussion, the committee took the decision to hold a vote of no confidence in the leadership of Henry Bolton.
“The vote was carried unanimously with the exception of the leader.
“This decision will automatically trigger an EGM of the party, to allow the membership of UKIP the democratic opportunity to decide to endorse or reject that vote of no confidence.”

Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
