Most of us are aware that the media take liberties in presenting an attention grabbing
headline so, "I'm switching sides" is definitely not a quote but if one stands on a ticket
then at least some votes will be gained because of that. Mr. Pritchard said that UKIP does not have a 'whip' and that they are all independents which is what he will be - where does that leave those voters? His ticket said UKIP not Independent UKIP. Based on his political record the politest description I could use is opportunist.
