Ukip's party conference descended into further chaos today, after Controversial Ukip MEP Godfrey Bloom jokingly called a roomful of women "sluts."
After calling Sky News' Darren Mccaffrey a "sad little man", Bloom took off down the street pursued by reporters. He then hit Channel 4's Michael Crick over the head with a Ukip conference book and called him a "racist", before jumping into a taxi to make his escape.
The MEP has since been suspended from the party.
