How Not to Run a Political Party : The Inside Story of Ukip

See all formats and editions

This is Paul Nuttall's story from the very heart of UKIP.

As the Party Chairman between 2008 and 2010 and Deputy Leader since then, he had an unrivalled viewpoint on the rise of UKIP from a single issue pressure group to arguably Britain's third largest political party.

This book tells the story from a fly on the wall perspective which, he claims, will set the record straight and reveal that much of what has been reported in the media has been a distortion.

The book will be anecdote heavy, leaving the reader either laughing or in sheer disbelief as to how they got away with it.

It will also detail the almost constant infighting that has beset the party during these years - Most recently seen in the alleged Brussels barny between MEPs Steven Woolfe and Mike Hookem - and deal with the colourful characters involved. Like them or not, it is impossible to deny that in a very short period of time, UKIP changed British politics. Whether that was forcing the Prime Minster to hold an EU referendum, winning the 2014 European Elections, garnering four million votes in a general election or achieving Brexit. In this ultimate insider account Nuttall will inform the reader how this was done, often against all odds.

If UKIP's star continues to rise, or even if it fizzles, this book will be essential reading for those with a general interest in politics.
