When Simon Danczuk met Nigel Farage for a pint in December, the Labour MP was accused of plotting a defection to Ukip.
While Danczuk denied this at the time, his wife Karen appears to be warming to the idea herself. Karen, who announced that she will stand down as a Labour Councillor from her Kingsway ward, got better acquainted with Ukip members at a recent debate on the NHS.

Now, Mr S hears rumours that a photo of the selfie queen actually wearing a Ukip badge is currently doing the rounds for the right bidder. If published, it wouldn’t be the first time a photograph has got Karen into hot water. Her tendency to upload cleavage selfies led to a Twitter spat with Louise Mensch. The former Conservative MP claimed that Karen was demeaning women in politics by posting pictures of her chest.
