Paul Latham, Ukip candidate for Keighley
UKIP has unveiled its General Election candidate for Keighley as Paul Latham.
Mr Latham, a businessman and economist from Ilkley, previously stood for the seat in 2010 and 2015.
He said he would campaign to scrap plans for a controversial waste-to-energy plant at Marley as well as a “complete Brexit from the EU”.
He is also calling for Airedale and Wharfedale to break away from the Bradford district and form its own district council.
Sitting Conservative candidate Kris Hopkins has previously called for a similar breakaway from Bradford Council, as has independent candidate David Crabtree.
