Managing Director of Scottish Power Renewables wishes Nigel Farage dead

The leader of the UKIP group on Great Yarmouth Borough Council has demanded an apology from Scottish Power after the Managing Director of their Renewables division told a meeting of local councillors and businessmen that he was disappointed Nigel Farage hadn't died this year.

Scottish Power Renewables' MD, Jonathan Cole, paid tribute to the famous people who have died during 2016 and went on to say that unfortunately the list didn't include Nigel Farage.

Cllr Kay Grey, the UKIP leader in Great Yarmouth, walked out of the meeting in disgust and has demanded an apology. A spokesman for Scottish Power said that it was a joke.
