I think his family owned a sausage factory in Ludlow. He became a Maastricht rebel and lost his seat in the 1997 Labour landside.<br /><br />I heard the other Tory MPs used to call him sausages. ( Esther Rantzen at thar timed used to feature on her show a talking dog that could say one word, "Sausages")<br /><br />He joined UKIP and was elected on to the NEC. He was besotted with Farage.<br />Eric Edmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11661176160109187800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6112651969466158066.post-55074323253700857422015-03-23T01:31:02.169-07:002015-03-23T01:31:02.169-07:00Who is Gil?Who is Gil?L fairfaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12274756119129254373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6112651969466158066.post-26158124546286188592015-03-21T04:02:48.951-07:002015-03-21T04:02:48.951-07:00Thank you DE for completing the picture.

When Del, Dvid and I were on the NEC we were acutely aware of this but any attempt we made to support due process was shouted down by Farage worshippers like Gill andTory moles like Bannerman.Eric Edmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11661176160109187800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6112651969466158066.post-3984881087243800092015-03-21T02:07:46.461-07:002015-03-21T02:07:46.461-07:00Hi,

Quite true, but in fact it's even worse than that!<br /><br />Look at like this:<br /><br />2004 - Farage hijacks the selection processs to ensure his personal choice Ashley Mote is parachuted in as No.2 on the UKIP South East list.<br />Mote is revealed as a benefits fraudster, loses the UKIP whip to leave Farage as UKIP's only South East MEP and eventually goes to jail.<br /><br />2009 - Farage hijacks the selection processs to ensure his personal choice ex-Tory Marta Andreasen is parachuted in as No.2 on the UKIP South East list.<br />Andreasen, as you say, eventually hops it back to the Tories to leave Farage as UKIP's only South East MEP.<br /><br />2014 - Farage hijacks the selection processs to ensure his personal choice ex-Tory Janice Atkinson is parachuted in as No.2 on the UKIP South East list.<br />Now Atkinson's alleged financial fraud has caused her to lose the UKIP whip to, er, leave Farage as UKIP's only South East MEP.<br /><br />Quite a pattern there, sadly, and the common denominator running through it all is Farage and his fatal mix of megalomania, rotten personal judgment and contempt for due process.<br /><br />Atkinson is not just an ex-Tory of recent vintage promoted after five minutes in UKIP by Farage, as Andreasen was, but someone now alleged to be a fraudster to boot. Thus she looks not just like Andreasen revisited by Farage, but Andreasen and Mote combined and revisited by Farage.<br /><br />What's that old Oscar Wilde quotation about once being a misfortune, twice looking like carelessness? How does that leave the Dear Leader's great skills looking now, thrice exposed?<br /><br />And let's spare a thought for the voters of the South East region, who have now voted to be represented by two UKIP MEPs at three consecutive elections, but have actually been represented by two UKIP MEPs for a grand total of less than five years in all that time - a situation for which the one-man selection committee called Nigel Farage is entirely to blame.
