No this is massive, UKIP civil war

[Crimson Dynamo]

UKIP’s NEC overwhelmingly refused my resignation, citing the party membership support as a reason for which I should stay on. I was reluctant. I wanted evidence, I wanted options. And they all came. I was left in a situation that made it clear; there was only one person the NEC wanted for the job, and the party membership was in support.

So, I breathed deep, and thought for as long as I possibly had, given the meeting was ongoing, and still is, at my time of writing this. I decided that as much as I had earned my holidays. As much as I wanted to spend the summer fishing, walking, and of course, in the European Parliament where all hell is currently breaking loose – that I owed it to the party that got me here.

See now arista you were wrong:

A senior UKIP official close to Nigel Farage has accused the party's only MP of "absurd" and "improper" behaviour after claims that Douglas Carswell was asked to recruit 15 extra staff for his parliamentary office.

The source told the BBC the Clacton MP sent an email yesterday saying he wanted sole control of around Ł650,000 that UKIP is set to receive in what's known as short money for opposition parties.

They suggested this was an "improper" proposal. They said the party planned to give Douglas Carswell staff but added "at no point have we said what we expect him to do". The senior party staffer said "this is him throwing his toys out of pram because he thought Nigel wouldn't be leader any more".

UKIP has insisted that the public funds will go to the party irrespective of Mr Carswell's views, saying they've "triple, quadruple checked that".

The source said "it's for us to spend as we want to spend it" and they added that "the party will take a dim view of four million people going unrepresented" if the Essex MP refuses to accept some of the money.

UKIP civil war

Farage a St amongst men and the best man for the job, Good luck Nigel lad !!

dont let mtvn suck you in to his liberal web of lies Arista

[joeysteele]

It really wouldn't surprise me now that 'if' they would have him, Douglas Carswell didn't return to the Conservative party.

[empire]

Labour have lost the working class vote, to ukip and the green party, this is what most people will not admit on this forum, ed mil's, advisor said that the working class vote for ukip and the greens, was 13 percent, a large amount of ukip's voters where from labour working class area's, in this year's election, not all working class people are lazy, and many want to find work, but labour's bribe was a rise the the dole money, that is not helping them find jobs, labour and the tory's are out of touch, in the real world, labour will never get the high working class vote again,

Come on arista, with only a 12 overall majority,the fear of any by elections taking place and being lost, it would make far more sense for the Conservatives to open that door again.

Carswell is happy, of course he is, he is the only MP UKIP have.

[MTVN]

There's been repeated signs that Carswell is not happy:

- Refused to endorse Farage's comments over foreigners and HIV
- He argued very strongly after Farage had resigned that UKIP are not a one man party and when he was asked about possible leaders he reeled off several names but did not included Farage even though he knew he might be competing
- He says he only found Farage had unresigned on twitter
- He repeatedly refused to back Farage's return
- And now this spat over funding

I sense Carswell regrets his move now or at least wishes UKIP could go in a different direction. Trouble is his resignation would presumably mean the third election in Clacton in a very short time period which would all be a bit farcical and could piss off his supporters

Carswell is more likely to go independent

he is a maverick

This is not the end of ukip, nor was it the beginning - it was the end of the beginning and now the battle can really begin

Name me one anti-nige person in this thread who wasn't anti-nige weeks, months or years ago? Go on LT, if this is about being sore losers, these must be new opinions?

Hmmmmmmm oh no wait, every single person lining up to laugh at pathetic Nigel as he completes the tour de france in reverse has always been anti-ukip. Your argument that it's sour grapes therefore falls totally flat .

He said he would resign because he thought he would win. He didn't win. He didn't resign. He lied. A career politician playing games like the rest of them. You're absolutely kidding yourself if you try to claim that this will have no effect on his reputation and his bubbling speech is little more than damage control.

At the very least, his credibility is affected and his position - in debates, TV interviews, etc. - is massively weakened. You know this perfectly well. If anyone is being biased...

He is right though arista as to all that.

You really know your politics arista,I always respect that in you but do you really think the Conservatives will not try to coax him back again.

There are still many Conservative MPs who have a high regard for Douglas Carswell.
Even I know that and I am not now a Conservative supporter.
