May the fraud be with you ....

The UKIP soap opera continues into another week with new revelations in the Sunday TImes about Tom Wise's slightly unorthodox accounting methods.

An internal inquiry into Mr Wise's affairs was stopped by former leader Roger Knapman after the report's authors, including retired policeman Trevor Colman, found evidence of serious wrongdoing.

This story is going to run and run - the only question is whether UKIP will still exist by the end of it.
