    We are leaving the EU, that was their only policy.

      lets see how he does in the election.

      Was it personal popularity or UKIP based?

      Maybe Aaron Banks standing will reinvigorate them. If he is the power behind the throne & he starts leading maybe it will be a good thing.

      Not sure why UKIP has to die, there is plenty to do during Brexit & afterwards, Labour & the Lib dems have showwn they aren't up to the job. Maybe UKIP can help?

        It was/is based on personal popularity. The other MP who changed to UKIP got kicked out in 2015.

        I keep hearing he's going to start another part due to not getting on with UKIPs current leaders.

        The Lib Dems and SNP are doing their jobs as in opposing Brexit and demanding scrutiny of everything.

        Labour - the UK's official opposition - is not doing it's job. If Momentum and Unite take over then they will be equivalent to the Socialist Workers party and basically cease to exist.

          Watched him briefly on BBC news there, he looks like he just came off the end of a massive bender.

          I suspect he asked to get back into the Conservatives and was told to feck off. I'm going to stick him down as career politician who really fecked his career up.

            who are the lib dems?

            The SNP aren't they the lot who want another referendum & were told to shut up?

              Looks like they're backing away from a hard Brexit, which leaves only the Tories as the hard-right party in the U.K. What a pity they took the country down before they disintegrated.

              For over four decades, the way in which agricultural produce is farmed, sold and financially supported has been decided primarily at a European level.

              Following the referendum outcome last June, Wales now has a chance to mould those policies closer to home.

              But we can only take advantage of this opportunity to reinvigorate our rural communities by ensuring that we, in Wales, do not lose out as a result of the vote to leave.

              In the shorter term we have heard clear evidence that access to the Single Market place, continuation of financial support and assurances over migrant labour are critical priorities.

                Ahh Mark Reckless - he was the UKIP MP his former constituency, Rochester and Strood, decided was an opportunist and they were clearly right as what links does he have to Wales?

                  Got to hand it to them, they managed to deliver on all of their policies despite having only one MP.

                    You have an odd definition of "all", which of these specifically have they delivered?
