Strange bedfellows indeed
A senior Ukip official has said the party is “proud” to represent people regardless of what they do in their private lives, after it was revealed that the man working under him was a veteran porn star.
John Langley, standing to represent Ukip in Stockwood in Bristol, also goes by another name – Johnny Rockard
Ukip candidate John Langley, who is running to represent the party in the ward of Stockwood in Bristol, does not include details of his other job as adult performer Johnny Rockard in any of his campaign material.
But speaking to BBC News in Bristol, he said he was “happy to confirm” reports he had appeared in, produced and promoted a range of porn films.
Mr Langley said he had never tried to hide what he did for a living, and added that “people like Ukip because we’re not just the beige, bland, career, boring politicians that they normally see”.
As well as running for the party in the local elections, Mr Langley is the vice chairman of Ukip’s Bristol branch.
