The UKIP group was the official opposition on Lincolnshire County Council until the then leader of the group, Cllr Chris Pain, was caught circulating an email trying to get members to rebel against the party over the PPC selection process that he was unsuccessful in and formed a new group with some other UKIP councillors. They were all expelled and the UKIP group as it stands now has 12 members, the same as the Labour group.
