Not only do we have the Blair\/Brown business heating up following the PM&#8217;s announcement he&#8217;ll step down after a full third term (assuming he doesn&#8217;t have any Anthony Eden-esque convenient heart problem excuses, that is), but now the UK Independence Party have also got a leadership fight on their hands. This is <a href=\"http:\/\/europhobia.blogspot.com\/2004\/09\/one-of-greatest-acts-of-political.html\">hardly a surprise<\/a> considering Kilroy&#8217;s previous antics, but even so, it&#8217;s worth a chuckle.<\/p>\n<p>I missed his appearance on Breakfast With Frost yesterday (largly due to it being on a Sunday morning &#8211; bed is somewhat more appealing than politics when nursing a severe hangover), but it <a href=\"http:\/\/news.independent.co.uk\/uk\/politics\/story.jsp?story=568522\">sounds like it was a corker<\/a>:<\/p>\n<p><i>&#8220;I would like to be leader of UKIP. I think I could turn it into a very effective, electoral fighting force&#8230; What everybody tells me they want is for the current leader to accept the inevitable and to stand down&#8230; during the last June elections, the current leader told me and others that he would step down after the election &#8211; but then of course he got a massive election result and probably liked the size of his new train set and now he&#8217;s changed his mind &#8211; that&#8217;s fine&#8230; Now you will think that&#8217;s arrogant and presumptuous and I&#8217;ll get accused of all those things but of course I think it would be better, otherwise I wouldn&#8217;t want to stand.&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Oh, and &#8220;UKIP also revealed yesterday the former TV chef, Rusty Lee, is the latest celebrity to join their parliamentary candidates for the next election.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Oh my God! Not that political powerhouse <a href=\"http:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/1\/hi\/uk_politics\/3811841.stm\">Rusty Lee<\/a>!
