UKIP's candidate to fight Glenrothes

The UK Independence Party has selected Dr Kris Seunarine as its candidate for the forthcoming Glenrothes by-election caused by the death of Labour MP John MacDougall.

Dr Seunarine, who lives in Wemyss with his wife Mary and is a specialist in the science of biophotonics at Dundee University, is Chairman of Fife Branch of UKIP.

He says: "I am looking forward to the opportunity to show the Glenrothes voters how everyone, not only in Glenrothes but the whole of the UK, will be better off when the UK is free from the ever increasing costs and crippling restrictions of the European Union.

“The recent closures of post offices are just another example of how the EU controls more and more areas of our lives, something the main parties are afraid to talk about.”

Dr Seunarine added: “It is interesting to watch the Labour Party's in-fighting in Glenrothes. Where once candidates would have been fighting to be selected for this ‘safe seat’, they are now fighting not to be selected as they don't want to be seen as the fall guy."
