UKIP: Nikki Sinclaire on leaving the EFD, her expulsion and Pearson's betrayal
Her statement confirms that she obtained Lord Pearson's permission to leave the EFD in December of last year.
Lord Pearson's position as UKIP leader is clearly untenable. He broke his word and allowed himself to be bullied into submission by Farage and his sycophants on the NEC. He has shown himself to be a weak and ineffectually leader. He should resign immediately as he has lost the respect of many who had voted for him as UKIP leader.
While I've been away on my retreat this week poor old Nikki Sinclaire has been further abused and mistreated by Farage and his henchmen. I would hope that UKIP's North West Chairman Phil Griffiths voted against her expulsion now he has sold his soul, sorry, joined the Party's NEC.
You see, Phil was the chap, as North West Chairman, who despised Paul Nuttall so deeply that he even refused to accept a drink from him at the hustings meetings for the NW EU elections list ballots in 2007. Imagine my shock when, in 2008, he was elected to the Party NEC, proposed by Paul Nuttall.
Furthermore, it was Phil Griffiths who, as Chairman of the North West Committee, urged me to stay within UKIP as lead candidate for the Euro elections, rather than walking as I did, but resign from the Party as soon as I was elected to sit as an independent. That was so fundamentally dishonest I was saddened that Phil could even suggest it. But that, sadly, is now par for the course in UKIP it seems. Or perhaps Phil did vote for it, in a rather confused state, believing he was doing what he suggested in 2007! Who knows?
