The Ukip Suspensions & Resignations List

Includes all suspensions, ejections, deselections and resignations since 1st January 2016.

Previous names from other years are logged on many other sites. including here, here, here, and here, although many were missed off that we know of, so we've decided to create the definitive list starting from 2016.

We fully expect Ukip to keep us busy on this page. If you think we've missed one (heaven forbid!) please let us know.

Total so far this year: 33.

(Latest is displayed first)



33. 14th April 2016

Steven Dyche, UKIP Staffordshire Councillor resigns. Reason we understand to be conflict in local party on support for #Brexit group 'Vote Leave'.


32. 11th April 2016

30. 8th April 2016

Mark Hicks, Ukip Cornwall Councillor, resigns for 'personal reasons'. No further information available but that branch has been at war with itself for ages. Knowing that branch (as we do) Hicks is just another casualty of frustration.
