Скачать или смотреть Nigel Farage defends Ukip candidate following 'sausage roll gate' - Daily Mail

Ukip election candidate Kim Rose (main picture and inset with Nigel Farage) is being investigated by the police over claims he tried to 'corruptly influence' voters after laying out sausage rolls at an event, which also featured snooker star Jimmy White. Electoral Commission rules state food and entertainment cannot be provided by parliamentary candidates if their provision is intended to influence votes - a criminal offence known as 'treating'. Mr Rose, 57, branded police involvement as 'absolutely ridiculous', adding that voters in the marginal seat were unlikely to 'change their mind for a sausage roll'. Nigel Farage has backed his candidate, saying the police investigation is 'utter nonsense'. Laughing off the allegations, Mr Rose added: 'Thank God they didn't find out about the Jaffa Cakes.'
