Rebranding UKIP: Nigel Farage & Andrew Constantine



Rebranding UKIP?

On January 29th 2011, Steve Uncles of the English Democrats wrote:

"Nigel Farage has commissioned a "Policy and Brand rethink", and has concluded that a proper English Parliament policy and the party name "English Independence Party" are a far more attractive to the voting public then UKIP ?

A UKIP relaunch is planned for the Spring Conference in 2011, as EIP (English Independence Party) and that Nigel Farage has paid in excess of £50,000 to Andrew Constantine for the English Independence Party name etc ."

On July 4th, a campaign for English Independence was launched. The campaign leader is Andrew Constantine. Constantine and one other name on the campaign website http://www.yestoei.org/ also appear as officers of the English Independence Party on the Electoral Commission website.

UKIP's position on an English Parliament was discussed by NEC members, and there was "an interesting exchange of views".

Interesting times!
