Hookem and Steven Woolfe, a fellow UKIP MEP, got into a fight during a UKIP meeting at Strasbourg’s European Parliament. Hookem claimed he didn’t punch Woolfe but admitted to having a “scuffle with” him and that he was acting in self-defence. The party meeting was to discuss news reports that Woolfe was discussing leaving the Conservative Party. Hookem stated that Woolfe “took exception to” Hookem’s comment about Woolfe late turning in his application for leadership. Hookem was asked whether he would accept suspension. Hookem replied: “If they suspend you, yes. Hookem was asked if he would accept a suspension and Hookem replied: “If they suspend me, they must suspend Steven Woolfe.”

Following the election of Henry Bolton as leader of UKIP, Hookem was appointed assistant deputy leader as well as UKIP spokesman on fisheries and on veterans affairs. He stood down as the party’s assistant deputy leader on 22 January 2018 after Bolton refused to resign as leader following a vote of no confidence in him from UKIP’s National Executive Committee the previous day.
