His line, was that Labour no longer represents the working class. A fair enough comment, until it transpired he had joined UKIP.

I wonder what all his fellow party members on the council will think about that one, given that they put him in the cosy job in the first place. He's right about Labour though. I've cancelled my own membership this week, as I've became completely disillusioned with them.
