Janice Atkinson Biography

Janice Atkinson is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on August 31, 1962 in London, England, United Kingdom. Janice Ann Atkinson, born 31 August 1962, is a British politician and Member of the European Parliament. Formerly representing the UK Independence Party (UKIP), she later sat in the European Parliament for the South East England region as an independent. She was elected second to the region list in 2014 behind Nigel Farage. After her chief of staff tried to fraudulously inflate her expenses, she was removed from UKIP.

Atkinson had previously been married to Steve Small and they had two children together. After their divorce, Small granted Atkinson custody of their children. Small criticised Atkinson for failing to pay child support in 2014. The Child Support Agency took her to court twice to make sure she paid what she owed.

In August 2014 she issued an apology after being recorded by a BBC News crew referring to the Thai (or Thai-born) wife of a constituent, who were both UKIP supporters, as “a ting-tong from somewhere”, a term used in Thailand for people with mental health problems. The woman and her husband threatened to withdraw from UKIP membership but changed their mind after a personal apology from UKIP leader Nigel Farage. Interviewed on camera later at their home, the woman and her husband said that Atkinson hadn’t apologised to them and was quite belligerent. Whilst speaking of Atkinson, Farage said “99% of UKIP members aren’t like that and don’t hold those views”. Atkinson apologised and explained in an interview shortly after that she never meant any malice and the unintended comment was taken out of context.

During the 2014 campaign it emerged that despite Atkinson’s claims – and status as a champion of state selective education – her alma mater, Blackheath Bluecoat School, is not and has never been a grammar school.

Atkinson joined UKIP as a result of David Cameron’s inability to produce a referendum regarding EU membership. Janice Atkinson Smalll was Janice Atkinson’s columnist for the Daily Mail.

In the 2010 general election she was the Conservative candidate in Batley and Spen. She finished second with 4,406 votes to Labour incumbent Mike Wood. She was also the director of Conservative Action for Electoral Reform.

Atkinson was also reported to have been dropped from the UKIP alternative vote campaign in 2011. She was fired after a meeting with undecided Conservatives, where she spoke out about her support for “elements of” the British National Party platform. A few days later, Atkinson made a mockery of anti-racism activists. Following her call for anti-UKIP protestors who were ‘abusive’ to be detained by the police, Atkinson resorted to swearing at them. The moment was captured in a photo that went viral on social media. Atkinson has described Kent towns as “no-go” areas due to Eastern European immigration. She has since defended her position by claiming that she marched in the Anti-Nazi League as a teenager.

In December 2014 it was revealed that Atkinson, whose annual salary as an MEP was around £79,000 per year, owed more than £2,000 in unpaid child support. Her ex-husband claimed this had “caused major hardship for her son and for her family”. Atkinson was singled out for criticism as she had previously attacked “feckless families” who have more children than they can afford.
