Ukip chief quit calls

UKIP leader Henry Bolton is facing calls to resign after his girlfriend reportedly made racist remarks about Meghan Markle.

Mr Bolton’s 25-year-old partner Jo Marney sent a series of messages to a friend in which she made highly offensive comments about Prince Harry’s fiancee and black people, the Mail on Sunday said.

The 54-year-old party leader, whose relationship with Ms Marney is under investigation by the party, said that she had been suspended.
