Default UKIP leader boycotts his own party conference

The leader of Ukip has been accused of a “complete insult” after he decided to boycott his own party conference due to low ticket sales.

Richard Braine has pulled out of the conference after fewer than 450 tickets were sold for the two-day event. The party was hoping to attract double the amount of delegates to the event in Newport, south Wales, later this month.

In the latest furore to engulf the party infamous for its public spats, the Ukip chair, Kirstan Herriot, wrote to all members stating new leader Braine had attempted to cancel the conference due to a potentially low turnout.

In the email sent to all members, Herriot, backed by Ukip’s ruling national executive committee (NEC), said Braine’s stance had been a complete affront to “hard-working” party members. She confirmed the conference would go ahead despite Braine’s no-show.

Are you still fearing UKIP?

You may as well do a propaganda piece on the Monster raving loony party. Although I think they've merged with the Lib-Dems now.

Loads of negative articles on the Lib-Dems and Labour. Why don't you post those articles?

Why don't you post the Guardians article about David Cameron this week. Where they published a piece attacking him about his dead son?
