Katie Hopkins, former Apprentice and popular voice of reason, is formalising her support for decent Brits by announcing she has officially joined UKIP.

Ms Hopkins said:

“People always ask me when I am going to go in to politics. I reply that I know I’m an asshole, but not THAT much of an asshole... but, there comes a time when people lucky enough to have a platform and a voice need to make a more meaningful stand.

“Joining UKIP formalises my intentions to step up more robustly and help the silenced majority be heard.

“I am outraged to see my countrymen treated like criminals, locked down and arrested for taking a walk with a cup of tea.

“I am done with watching decent Brits put at the back of the queue, whilst illegals waltz into our country and enjoy free accommodation, health and school places denied to our own.

“I share the frustrations of so many people who can no longer say what they really think or how they feel.

“And I am excited for the opportunity to help them find a louder voice.

“I speak for no-one but myself. But I refuse to sit quietly by as our freedoms are stripped away and our children’s futures compromised by the weakness of political leaders today.

“There are many new upstarts; ‘Reform’, ‘Reclaim’, renaming and recycling the good will of original UKIPPERS. There are too many boys wanting to be the boss, dividing our side, when our side so desperately needs to be unified.

“Ordinary people like me need to stand together.

“My name is Katie Hopkins. I am making a stand with UKIP.”

In response to Katie joining, UKIP Leader Neil Hamilton MS said:

"Katie’s excoriating views on the modern liberal elite and woke culture are well known and I am delighted to welcome her to the party as we enter an exciting new era of British sovereignty.

 

"UKIP has always stood as a bulwark against PC claptrap and the grievance-mongering of identity politics. Katie’s outspoken support for our shared values of protecting free speech and defending our nation’s heritage are a tonic for the decent working people of Britain.

“UKIP is alive and kicking as Britain's voice of common sense. Stand up for Britain as Katie has and join us."
