Here is the list of the new intake.
East Midlands: Roger Helmer and Margot Parker.
East of England: Patrick O'Flynn, Stuart Agnew and Tim Aker.
London: Gerard Batten.
North East: Jonathan Arnott.
North West: Paul Nutttall, Louise Bours and Steven Woolfe.
Scotland: David Coburn.
South East: Nigel Farage, Janice Atkinson, Diane James and Ray Finch.
South West: William Dartmouth and Julia Reid.
Wales: Nathan Gill.
West Midlands: Jill Seymour, Jim Carver and Bill Etheridge.
Yorkshire & The Humber: Jane Collins, Amjad Bashir and Mike Hookem.
Scotland: David Coburn.
I must confess I have not met many of them so I will start with the hard core Farage worshippers who have benefitted from the patronage of the great leader
Jill Seymour
Paul Nuttall
Johnathan Arnott
Then there are those who can think for themselves and may have better offers. There are not many of these
Patrick O'Flynn
Julia Reid
Diane James
and possibly Stephen Woolfe
but that makes them the likliest to fall out with Nigel. Andreasen said he does not like intelligent women.
Some of the remainder are previous MEPs who will wish to keep in with Nigel and stay on the EU gravy train. They have seen what happened to Nikki and Mike Natrass a case of pour encourager les autres so are unlikely to defect under any circumstances.
Gerard Batten
Roger Helmer
William Legge
Stuart Agnew
Of the rest I know nothing but I would welcome comments so I can construct my odds book and get a betting market going
So which green bottle will be first to fall? Again I welcome commments. Temptation will build up as we approach the General Election so I would anticipate the first defection around that time and when one goes others will follow.
The first guide will be who turns up and works hard at Newark next week excluding Helmer.

I think Diane James will join the Conservatives. O'Flynn may move on from UKIP too.
