UKIP Rutland, Melton and Harborough, No Whip, So What Is the Point? No UKIP Councillors on Rutland County Council? Letter

UKIP Rutland, Melton and Harborough, No Whip, So What Is the Point? No UKIP Councillors on Rutland County Council?

No UKIP Councillors on Rutland County Council?

Even today Rutland County Council states it has the following UKIP members

UKIP - UK Independence Party (3 Members - Leader Richard Gale, Councillor Wainwright, Councillor Richardson).

A letter published in  last weeks Rutland Times from Marietta King the UKIP branch chairman
which is quite damning contradicts this and states there are currently no UKIP Councillors
on Rutland County Council.

A few days ago Richard Gale told me he was not going to stand for UKIP.
He also told me he has never been a member of UKIP or paid any membership
fees.

I question why if the three councillors had tethered ties with UKIP many months ago
why was this not made public?

Why was Rutland County Council not told?

Why does the council website and the three councillors still say they are members of
UKIP.

Its a mystery...

Their website says:

New identity

We are now the Rutland Group of the United Kingdom Independence Party (RGUKIP) on Rutland County Council.

Richard Gale and Nick Wainwright are currently standing as independents.

Dave Richardson can not stand due to error with his nomination.
