A HUGE crowd packed into a UKIP meeting last week.

More than 180 people turned up at Walton’s Columbine Centre for the event, held by Douglas Carswell – MP for Clacton until Parliament was dissolved – and MEP Patrick O’Flynn.

The pair outlined their policies to the crowd and held a question and answer session.

Mr Carswell also showed 50 Clacton constituents around the Houses of Parliament last week.
