UK Independence Party Leader, Roger Chapman is usually an vociferous supporter of buying British…. Except when it comes to hiring builders to renovate his home.
According to today’s Independent, Mr Knapman’s political ideology seems to have given way to a desire for cheaper home improvement. It would seem that he has saved costs by hiring Polish builders.
Although Roger Knapman has done nothing illegal it doen not exactly sit well with his own Party’s policies: UKIP was the only British Party in the European parliament to vote against allowing east European states into the EU warning that enlarging the EU would lead to a "flood of migrants"
Hmm perhaps there will be more than one former party leader scanning the jobs section of the papers in the near future.

Mr Knapman was for five years the MP for Stroud (which is a few miles up the road and around many corners from our house) a largely rural seat which is generally solid Tory territory (council is 29 Conservative, 22 the rest).
He can't have been much good as an MP because they soundly booted him out in 1997 with a huge swing even by that year's glorious standard. He sulked off to UKIP soon afterwards.
Thanks for drawing my attention to this lovely little story.....
It cheered me up no end to see such a Little Englander not practicising what he preached. I wonder if he will now be savaged to death by a horde of Colonel Blimp lookalikes!
