A big political story before the Easter weekend was the suspension for six months of leading UKIP figure, Suzanne Evans, who for a few days last May was acting leader of the party.

Diane James, an MEP claimed it was a case of revenge by the former candidate for the London Assembly, saying: "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.""

It feels 170 ish.
NO !
I'm done with backing "should be no longer than 6-4" favourites for job vacancies that might possibly come up 5 years down the line
The problem is that in one of their matches they did not concede a boundary in about their last 5 overs. England need wickets and fast.
(there's one).
great comment on cricinfo: "Nerveless catch from Mo, who's taken one look at Kane and said "My beard's bigger than yours, son".
UKIP really are a laughing stock. Just the plaything of Farage, the EU's useful idiot.
I could say the same but why would I bother?
Not agreeing is allowed
I have canvassed with Suzanne for an afternoon and spoke to her about various things.. Personally I agreed with the gist of some of what she said, but if PBers that hate Farage/love Evans heard it, I doubt they would be so fulsome in their praise, and if they heard me or Farage say it, they'd be calling for the tar and feathers
Warring Brexit groups have held a secret peace meeting chaired by a cabinet minister after months of bitter infighting, The Sun can reveal.
A very public civil war between the various Eurosceptic factions has blighted the “Out” campaign so far, but insiders say Monday’s talks headed up by Chris Grayling were “incredibly productive”.
Representatives from the Leave.EU group and Grassroots Out met at the Westminster HQ of Vote Leave to try settle their differences ahead of the election watchdog picking one of them to be the official face of “Leave”.

That's less than an average 0.2% a year. Growth rates vary by more than that from Autumn Statement to the following Budget every year.
Or were you one of those bitching about the increase in food banks? Were you hoping they'd starve too?
I'm still traumatised by Mr Freggles putting the image of Nick Clegg getting spanked for 33k at a time, in my head last night.
The sooner Farage is gone the better. UKIP, to have a future, need to be a party, not a Cult of Nigel.
Anyway, bettingwise, if you think it is a cult of Nigel, look for one of his acolytes as next leader I would say, rather than the two at the top of the betting who hate him
I've never really understood how Grayling made it near the top of the Tory party. Am I missing something?
But you should have written your last paragraph, rather than the all-knowing nudge-nudge comment you made.
As for Evans, you seem to have a rather negative view of her for some time. It might help people decide on the likelihood of her succeeding Farage if you expanded on what you know and believe to be the case.
Wasn't Clegg the one doing the spanking?
Yes it shrank by 8%. Deliberately inflicting further damage in the hope that there is something better seems slightly thoughtless.
I don't mean to be negative about Suzanne Evans as she was perfectly nice company when I met her... but I cant think of any reason why she should be even considered as a replacement for Farage, should he need to be replaced (he is the leader with the best ratings from "gold standard" remember), and also, seeing as Farage holds such sway amongst UKIP top brass that he managed to "unresign" I shouldn't think his enemies in the party are that well placed to succeeed him
Evans is a bit of a middle of the road Tory with the hump really I think, maybe even a slight Blairite on some things. I can see why she is popular with non kippers!
LEAVE haven't been closer in the polls since the referendum was called, while Farage is way clear in the leader ratings, but people say he is a drag on the cause and is trying to lose! Why let facts get in the way?
As a gesture, you can have Even money with me Carswell OR Evans next UKIP leader.
Your size
This over is surely the T20 equivalent of Trump vs Clinton. The bowling is bad, but the batting is worse !

1) Carswell
2) Evans
3) Farage
4) James
Naturally, political biases and presentation preferences play into that. Also her work on the 2015 manifesto was very good (as I said before the election). A world better than the 2010 mess.
Clinton 2290 Sanders 1761
Clinton's high point estimate was 2385 a couple of weeks back.
He probably wouldn't have survived that twenty years ago. (Although Brundel's Oz crash in 1996 was, I think, similar and in the same place on the circuit. He split his car in two.)
Alonso's had more than his fair share of massive shunts. It must play on his mind.
I can't see Farage being ousted any time soon so therefore the likely scenarios are as follows:
Leave wins and he steps down in triumph
Remain wins and he steps down a la Salmond
Remain wins and he steps down prior to the next European elections (2017 or 18)
Remain wins and he steps down after the next European elections (2019)
Remain wins and he goes on past the 2020 GE
In the remain scenarios one of the MEPs such as Nuttall or Woolfe is the likely successor
In the leave scenario it is less clear as the MEPs will all be out of a job likely in 2019. Could Reckless lead the party from the Welsh Assembly?
Back of the fag packet odds;
Clinton 1/5
GOP(unity) 8/1
Trump 16/1
