UK police say they have discovered election fraud against Nigel Farage

Nigel Farage might not have lost the 2015 UK General Election, according to UK police, who claim the former UKIP leader may have been the victim of election fraud.

Police claim that the Conservative Party recruited unemployed people in South Thanet to pose as local activists during the election in order to undermine Farage.

According to reports, an unnamed woman who leafleted on behalf of the Conservative party in Sandwich, Kent, when asked if she was a Tory activist, replied, “I’m not. I was at the job centre and saw this advert for a job with an unknown employer”.

Breitbart.com reports:

The Daily Mirror reports that she was allegedly given a party rosette, brought to South Thanet on the now infamous Tory battle bus, and sent out onto the steets to campaign.

The source of the story has been interviewed by police at least twice, most recently by the Kent and Essex Serious Economic Crime Unit.

The South Thanet constituency was fiercely contested by former UKIP leader Nigel Farage, and the Tories are accused of hanging on to the seat by breaking election spending rules and illicitly deploying key party personnel including Nick Timothy, who now serves as the Prime Minister’s chief of staff, to the local campaign.

According to the Mirror, claims the Tories employed faux activists were first made public by Peter Wallace, a Labour Party representative on Dover District Council.

“On April 10th the Conservative Party’s Battle Bus visited Sandwich, in South Thanet, with a number of activists on board,” Wallace recalled last year.

“During the day they distributed leaflets, campaigned in the town centre and held a meeting at the Phoenix Centre youth club.

“After the meeting a member of staff at the Phoenix Centre spoke to one of the activists and asked her why she had travelled from London to campaign in Sandwich for the Conservative Party.

“The activist replied that she wasn’t a supporter of the Conservative Party but was actually unemployed and was recruited in her local job centre in London to campaign for the party.

“She was paid to travel on the bus, hand out leaflets and take part in the campaign while wearing a blue rosette.

“I believe this is a serious matter that needs investigating.”

The Electoral Commission has already fined the Conservative Party a record £70,000 for irregularities in its campaign spending declarations.
