Cllr Benjamin Dennehy joins UKIP

A former Tory councillor in Ealing expelled from the party for "dishonouring the community" by talking about illegal immigrants and crime has joined UKIP.

Cllr Benjamin Dennehy, who represents Hanger Hill on Ealing Council, was expelled from the Tories for potentially damaging the Tory election campaign for Boris Johnson by offending some members of the communities that make up the community (there was lots of use of the word "community" in every statement by the LibLabCon at the time, it's like reading a sketch from Citizen Khan).

Welcome to UKIP, Cllr Dennehy.
