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.

If Karen does join Ukip she may find more support from its party members than she did in Labour. She recently favourited a tweet from one follower who suggested she get her ‘own back’ on the party by joining Farage’s team.
@KarenDanczuk @jonburkeUK @UKLabour get your own back join UKIP and stick two fingers up at this class sneering Labour party
