Permatan Politician

Robert Kilroy-Silk, Britain´s permatanned anti-EU politician, has left the UKIP party. He claims that as soon as the UKIP´s MEP´s got to the the parliament they want to abolish, they effectively "went native" and settled down to enjoying the Brussels gravy-train. So now he´s starting his own party, "Veritas". He´s got a point, of course. If your starting point is disbandment of the EU parliament, it´s pretty much impossible to subvert it from within. A new strategy is called for.
