The regional lists have been announced today and they are topped by the strongest candidates we could have hoped for. If UKIP wins the EU elections next year as expected we will see some fantastic MEPs working for our withdrawal from the EU.
What is nice to see is the number of women who have made the lists this time round and without a quota in sight. The LibLabCon parties have to force their members to choose women candidates through all-female shortlists while we choose them based on merit. With two lists topped by women and another three in second place we should see at least two or three female UKIP MEPs.
