'Mr Nobody' increases UKIP offer to £1m

Former Conservative supporter Arron Banks has announced that he will donate £1m to UKIP.

He told journalists in Bristol that he had been intending to give £100,000, but had raised that to £1m after Leader of the House of Commons William Hague suggested he was a "nobody".

UKIP leader Nigel Farage welcomed the move and attacked various Conservative Party members for their recent comments.
