Chairman Nuttall to step down
Friday, 3rd September 2010
UKIP Chairman Paul Nuttall is to step down, it has been announced at the Party's annual conference in Torquay.
The popular North West MEP said the time had come for a change at the helm of the Party and with a new Leader due to be elected, now was the time to leave the role.
"I've really enjoyed my time as chairman of the Party and enjoyed immensely working with the UKIP members staff," he said.
"But with my role as an MEP taking up more and more of my time in the North West – I have 75 meetings to attend in my diary at the moment – then this is the right decision, and the right time.
"Not forgetting, that by the time my replacement is found, I will have been the longest-serving Party chairman ever!"
