THE VOICE OF REASON Solon, (born c. 630 BCE—died c. 560 BCE), Athenian statesman, known as one of the Seven Wise Men of Greece (the others were Chilon of Sparta, Thales of Miletus, Bias of Priene, Cleobulus of Lindos, Pittacus of Mytilene, and Periander of Corinth). Solon ended exclusive aristocratic control of the government, substituted a system of control by the wealthy, and introduced a new and more humane law code. He was also a noted poet.
@oche_balboa Carswell clearly intends to present his decision not to accept the money as a fait accompli, as if he were already leader.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 13, 2015
@oche_balboa Carswell is in effect treating the money as his own to tear up in the faces of UKIP supporters to show his contempt for them.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 13, 2015
@oche_balboa If I were leader I would see to it that retribution would be swift and decisive, but then I am not Nigel Farage ...
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 13, 2015
UKIP activists should be rewarded with a leadership contest after all their hard work in #GE2015. Members always love a leadership contest.

Oh, don't worry about it, @UKIP. The @BNP also descended into internal squabbling when @NickGriffinBU failed to become MP In 2010. #GE2015
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 14, 2015
@AndrewMarr9 @goddersbloom That is not the point though, is it? The money was not his to decline.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 14, 2015
@goddersbloom Douglas Carswell is a BORE and a charisma-free zone. The only thing he has to flaunt is his holier than thou principles.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 14, 2015
Not quite sure what Stuart Wheeler hoped to achieve by saying what he said except stick the knife into Nigel Farage deeper and harder. #wato

Advice to @Nigel_Farage: hold a leadership election and re-resign after expelling @DouglasCarswell, go on holiday, appoint me your adviser.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 14, 2015
If UKIP remove Farage it will be one of the biggest mistakes in political history he is one of the main reasons UKIP have millions of voters

A leadership contest would settle #UKIP members because members always love leadership elections. https://t.co/cnPoX1wukL

I was GE2015 staff. My contract has always expired at the end of the month and I am on holiday until then. Nigel is the best leader for UKIP

Steven Woolfe insists: 'We are not a right wing party.' Someone in UKIP's PR/branding team may have some questions to answer. #r4today

@sammacrory I really despise these arrant lies stemming from the cowardice of the likes of Steven Woolfe.

@MellorSJ @JerryTaylor @BBCr4today It will be OK if the issues are eventually resolved n they can only be resolved by a leadership election.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@MellorSJ @JerryTaylor @BBCr4today While the grassroots don't want a leadership election the senior members of UKIP clearly do.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@laurapitel That was fine, but I really disliked Steven Woolfe saying UKIP was not a "right-wing" party.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@SherrinThePain I suppose UKIP could itself a *radical* party. The right/left classification is the logically incorrect one to use IMHO.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@timscottukip @Steven_Woolfe We could all start talking about where @Nigel_Farage could be going on holiday.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@timscottukip @Steven_Woolfe @Nigel_Farage I have exciting ideas about how leadership contest could be conducted for maximum publicity n fun
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@Gwynoro @BBCr4today @Nigel_Farage I agree with @RaheemKassam that @DouglasCarswell should definitely be booted out. @oflynnmep @UKIP
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@ruthkennedy @dzyrl @BBCr4today IMHO @Steven_Woolfe should have said "I don't know about right-wing, but UKIP is certainly a RADICAL party."
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@paulgslatter @stephen501 Demonised social conservatives would understandably be attracted to UKIP.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@paulgslatter @stephen501 The point to bear in mind that UKIP does not have a single policy that bashes gays.

@paulgslatter @SurferObserver @stephen501 The "Ting Tong" comment did not stop non-white UK citizens from joining and voting for UKIP.

@paulgslatter @SurferObserver @stephen501 The fact that is immigration is so out of control now that even immigrants are concerned about it.

@paulgslatter @SurferObserver @stephen501 Even Muslims who know quite a few UKIP members are Islamophobic continue to support UKIP.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@paulgslatter @SurferObserver @stephen501 Everyone knows how Islamophobic @GerardBattenMEP is and how much he wants to censor the Koran!
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@SurferObserver @paulgslatter @stephen501 UKIP is the most socially conservative party in the land as a result of its average age.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
UKIP "should have respected" @Nigel_Farage's need for a holiday & he must be in politics for EU ref - @Steven_Woolfe. pic.twitter.com/Q7XXP4ibUr

@paulgslatter We all know that previous generations are more socially conservative and "racist" than the current generation.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@MJohnA01 @BBCr4today I think @Nigel_Farage winning the leadership contest would settle senior members of UKIP like @Steven_Woolfe.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@smoore444 It is just post-election blues. Labour Party members are at least getting a leadership contest as a consolation prize.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@smoore444 Same thing happened to the BNP after Nick Griffin failed to become MP in Barking & Dagenham in 2010.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@smoore444 It is actually an opportunity missed for UKIP not to have a leadership contest IMHO.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@KW14Ultra Now that UKIP is up and running it should and could serve the purpose of representing the views of social conservatives.

@j_bettany If Nigel Farage expels Douglas Carswell he won't get a single penny, and serve him right. #UKIP
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@MichaelLCrick It is clear that Raheem Kassam is widely disliked in UKIP for being an arrogant creep. Nigel Farage should take this on board
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
@Casanovy_III The grassroots still love Nigel Farage, but UKIP's senior members fancy having a leadership contest. Throw them a bone, Nige!
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 15, 2015
I'm not pleased with all the fuss Carswell is making,he has only been in UKIP all of 5 minutes & is trying to fundamentally change UKIP

@vegas870 @stardust193 the left were shocked UKIP did so well against Labour they really believed only ex Tories voted UKIP
— David Jones (@DavidJo52951945) May 15, 2015
@dava68rich @jongaunt @UKIP @Nigel_Farage Carswell should be expelled pronto so he doesn't get a penny of the £650,000. It will be WORTH IT.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 16, 2015
@dava68rich @jongaunt @UKIP @Nigel_Farage Carswell is a charisma-free zone and has shit lefty policies coming out of his ears.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 16, 2015
@dava68rich @jongaunt Best thing for @UKIP to do is be distinctly "right of centre" whatever risk-averse Kippers say. @Nigel_Farage
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 16, 2015
@dava68rich @jongaunt @Nigel_Farage Carswell thinks he can call the shots just cos he is the only MP when he is @UKIP's most hated man.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 16, 2015
@dava68rich @jongaunt @UKIP I repeat my advice to @Nigel_Farage: expel and destroy Carswell, call a leadership election then go on holiday.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 16, 2015
@dava68rich @jongaunt @UKIP @Nigel_Farage The only apparently viable leadership contender is @Steven_Woolfe but he is risk-averse pussy cat.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 16, 2015
@dava68rich @jongaunt @UKIP One thing @Nigel_Farage should bear in mind is how much oily arrogant Raheem Kassam is hated by the grass roots.

@dava68rich @jongaunt @UKIP I repeat my advice to @Nigel_Farage: only a leadership election would settle senior Kippers.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 16, 2015
@dava68rich @jongaunt @UKIP @Nigel_Farage Leadership contests are the standard consolation prize to parties who have lost elections.
— Claire Khaw (@ntfem) May 16, 2015
The only person who should be expelled is @DouglasCarswell. Then @Nigel_Farage should re-resign and go on holiday. https://t.co/0DlPd3guyc
