In light of Team GB’s success at the Rio 2016 Olympics, UKIP Leader in Wales Nathan Gill wanted to issue this statement of congratulations:

“What an achievement – well done all involved! The athletes, the coaches, the therapists and family and friends. You did this! I think we can smash this record again in Tokyo! You’ve made everyone in Wales & the United Kingdom very proud. Da iawn pawb!”

UKIP MEP and equestrian Jane Collins has hit out at Brussels for erasing the achievements of Britain’s sporting heroes, including Laura Trott and Mo Farah: “Where was the EU in the early hours of the morning when our amazing athletes were training?

“It was UK National Lottery money which helped them develop into the world class athletes who have made this country proud.

“I know from my time with the equestrian world it has very little time for the EU. The only way the EU would win in a race is if there was a big pot of taxpayers’ cash at the finish line.”
