What an absolute moron are these the type of fruit cakes UKIP have in their party?
A SENIOR UKIP official has quit the party after Scottish leader David Coburn banned him from helping a food bank.
Coburn demanded Glasgow branch vice-chairman Cailean Mongan stop a planned charity drive because “no one in this country is going hungry”.
The buffoon MEP also branded food banks “left-wing propaganda invented by the Labour Party and the SNP ”.
His furious outburst came after Mongan, 39, and other Glasgow branch members decided to support their local food bank in the run-up to Christmas.
Mongan was stunned when other UKIP members reacted angrily.
And the final straw came when Coburn tried to ban the drive.
Mongan, who has also quit as a Holyrood candidate, said in his resignation letter: “Almost straight away the branch was attacked on Facebook by Caroline Santos (chair of Argyll and Bute) who objected to the branch helping the working poor.
“I strongly disagree with Mrs Santos on these issues. On December 6, I was telephoned by David Coburn who instructed me the collection was not to go ahead as ‘no one in this country is going hungry’ and food banks ‘are left-wing propaganda invented by the Labour Party and the SNP’.”
Mongan, who is from Chester but has lived in Glasgow for 12 years, said last night he was “disgusted” by Coburn’s attitude to the poor.
