LOATHSOME Ukip leader Nigel Farage will continue to lead the far-right party after it rejected his resignation yesterday.
Mr Farage had promised to quit his post if he failed to win South Thanet.
But in a bizarre twist the party’s national executive committee (NEC) unanimously rejected Mr Farage’s letter of resignation.
Ukip chair Steve Crowther said the NEC believed the campaign was a “great success.”
Mr Crowther said: “This offer was unanimously rejected by the NEC members, who produced overwhelmingly evidence that the Ukip membership did not want Nigel to go.”
