UKIP leader Diane James resigns – the best 6 Twitter gags

So leader of UKIP, Diane James has resigned after just 18 days – maybe because the party didn’t support her – maybe because what with the Tories becoming so far right there is little point for UKIP to exist these day, as one of their MEPs Patrick O’Flynn notes, “Sometimes it feels like UKIP is in power but not in office”

Anyway – you’re here for the jokes so here’s the best 6:

Diane James left because she wasn't backed by her colleagues.

And as @keirshiels says, “I think it’s fair to say that’s the new leader of UKIP is going to be Theresa May.”
