Donna Edmunds did not stand as UKIP candidate for Barcombe Counsellor on Lewes District Council today (did she stand anywhere else?). She must have got the message that hardly anyone in Barcombe would vote UKIP and no-one at all vote for her as most see her as dishonorable (for being voted in as a Tory and not standing down when she jumped ship to UKIP) and useless (she's done nothing 'for the village and only been remarkable due to her continued absence from anything of note).

It looks like her eye may be on the main chance; that UKIP leader Nigel Farage will be elected as MP for Thanet South and have to resign his seat in the EU leaving it free for the next in line, Donna Edmunds herself. Heavens forbid.

In the unlikely even that Faridge is elected in Thanet why would he have to resign as an MEP? Ian Paisley did both what are aughingly called 'jobs' didn't he? Is it compulsory to stand down now?

Under the 2002 European Union decision to forbid MEPs from holding a dual mandate, if Farage were to be elected to the House of Commons, he would have to resign his seat as MEP.

Who knows what is going on. If this silly woman does get to be MEP, UKIP need to explain why they support a far right Libertarian who endorses homophobic, racists, sexist discrimination for businesses (and refused equality training following a finding by LDC against her behaviour) Her political commitment to Lewes District has clearly ended so it would be laughable for her to swan off to Brussels and moan about people not being represented by local politicians.

She never represented the people of Barcombe. The parish council got very annoyed with her for being so vacant.
