Mixed Race UKIP MEP To Take Charge Of Immigration Policy.

Ukip's new migration spokesperson Steven Woolfe has promised to forge the "most ethical immigration policy" of all the parties in the run up to the general election. After being named migration and financial affairs spokesman today by party leader Nigel Farage, Woolfe told the Huffington Post UK that the party's stance would be to ensure that Britain remained "open to the world" while "recognising that we have finite policies that we have to manage sensibly".

Woolfe, a mixed-race Mancunian lawyer who was elected to the European Parliament for the North West in May, recently came to prominence when he made an impassioned defence of Ukip's record at attracting black and ethnic members. Speaking at the party's pre-election rally in London, Woolfe, who has an Irish mother and an African-American father, said: "I am a proud Englishman, I am a proud Briton, I am a proud mixed race person and I am a proud member of Ukip."
