Hi,
Ukip’s been having a massive Sunday morning fight before most people even woke up
Suzanne Evans and Paul Nuttall launched leadership bids but loads of people are having a go at each other. Here’s what happened before brunch
Confused, Nigel? So are we. Here’s what’s been going on in your party
Good morning and happy Sunday.
Lots of you have barely woken up, but Ukip’s been very busy having an enormous fight.
Big beasts Suzanne Evans and Paul Nuttall both launched leadership bids – but there’s now a catty row involving top party figures including Nigel Farage.
All before brunch is officially over.
So what the heck’s been going on today in the Eurosceptic party?
Here’s a quick guide to the latest Ukip row… so far.

Steven Woolfe quits Ukip saying poisonous atmosphere left party in a ‘death spiral’
9.18am: Suzanne Evans revealed she’ll run for leader
Former acting leader Suzanne Evans, who’s back after being suspended for “disloyalty”, was on TV this morning to launch her leadership bid.
She vowed to make the party less “toxic” and move it to the centre ground as she takes over from Nigel Farage and 18-day leader Diane James.
She told the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show she came from a “working-class Labour” background.
When he replied “you were a Tory councillor!” she bizarrely replied: “I was a Tory councillor, exactly!”
9.20am: She immediately attacked her “far-right” rival
BBC BBC Suzanne Evans on The Andrew Marr Suzanne Evans was pulling no punches
Suzanne Evans laid into rival candidate Raheem Kassam, a controversial ex-Farage aide who runs the “alt right” Breitbart website and whose slogan is “Make Ukip Great Again”.
Asked if he was “far-right”, she said: “Yes. Absolutely.
“I don’t think there’s any doubt about that and I don’t think our members want that.”
She added: “Our future as a political party in Britain does not lie in that far-right wing.
“I don’t see a groundswell of opinion in this country for more far-right wing policies. I don’t see a groundswell of opinion for the right to bear arms in America.”
9.24am: And slagged off Ukip’s biggest donor
She said it Arron Banks “walked tomorrow Ukip could survive perfectly well” She disowned millionaire Ukip donor Arron Banks despite Ukip losing its London office in a financial pickle.
“I have been 100% assured that actually we are not doing nearly as badly as the headlines suggest,” she boasted.
“Arron Banks is by no means our major donor.
“If he walked tomorrow Ukip could survive perfectly well without him.”
Ukip’s three-time leader told ITV’s Peston on Sunday: “For her to talk about the party being toxic, for her to already declare one of the candidates who is running, Raheem Kassam, as being far-right, I don’t view this as being a very good start.
“I have to say they are the sort of things she said to me – after the general election she said to me I shouldn’t take any part at all in the referendum campaign, I was toxic, immigration shouldn’t be discussed with the British public.
“I think she has been in the wrong place ever since that.”
He added: “I won’t be voting for her, not after that, no.”
10.11am: And neither did Mr ‘Far Right’
Raheem Kassam sent out a fuming press release saying: “This is a project fear tactic and UKIPers are sick of these smears.”
He compared Ms Evans’ comments to Hillary Clinton describing Trump supporters as a “basket of deplorables”.
And he even quoted Michelle Obama: “We’re going to rise above it. When she goes low, we go high.”
10.12am: Oh, also Farage had a go at this bloke
Farage won’t be giving Steven Woolfe a hand with any of his political issues in future
Farage also lashed out at his former protege Steven Woolfe , who quit the party last week following his bust up with fellow UKIP MEP Mike Hookem.
Before the bust-up, Woolfe had been a prime leadership candidate.
He said Woolfe was “a guy of talent but sometimes too much ambition gets the better of you.”
He added cattily: ” Steven Woolfe spoke of the downward spiral of UKIP – it was the downward spiral of Steven Woolfe”.
11.04am: And this guy warned Ukip may ‘fall off a cliff’
BBC Paul Nuttall launched his bid to lead the party he says could be annihilated
Former Ukip deputy Paul Nuttall announced his leadership bid – the second of the morning – on the BBC’s Sunday Politics.
He said: “I want to stand on a platform of being the unity candidate. Ukip needs to come together.
“I’m not going to be on here and gild the lily. Ukip at the moment is looking over the edge of a political cliff. It will either step off or it will step back and I want to be the candidate that will tell us to come backwards.
“Students of political history know political movements and political parties take a long time to get going and build, it’s taken us over 20 years, but they can disappear pretty quickly.
“Ukip is facing an existential crisis. What’s happened over the summer, we could be getting onto a spiral which we couldn’t get off.
“But I believe I am the man to bring the factions together, to create unity within the party, and to build and restructure and get us ready for the coming challenges.”
11.13am: Meanwhile, Ukip’s press chief asked the big questions
11.24am: And Mr ‘Far Right’ fought back
Sky News Raheem Kassam said not many right-wingers will vote for a bloke called Kassam
Raheem Kassam then went on Sky News and fought back at Suzanne Evans’ claims he’s from the “far right”.
He fumed: “When she does things like this it undermines her, it undermines her campaign and it’s an attack on lots of her party members.”
He admitted being friends with former EDL chief Tommy Robinson and backed dental checks on child refugees.
But he said: “How many members of the far right are going to join a party led by a chap called Raheem Kassam?”
UPDATE: 12.28pm: And accused his rival of a ‘personal tirade’
Mr Kassam sent all Westminster journalists a copy of a personal e-mail to Ms Evans.
“You embarked upon a personal tirade against me, calling me and my supporters – numbering in the high thousands – far right”, he moaned.
“I would hereby request that you cease referring to vast swathes of Ukip as far right and embark upon a positive campaign.”
I wonder when Arron Banks will finally wake up and smell the coffee and realise it is over, only to wander off with Nigel’s hand in his pocket to form The Grass Roots Party they keep dithering on the edge of as they wait for Nigel to either get his German Passport or be charged for fraud!
