A UKIP employee who was passed off as an ordinary voter from Devon in their manifesto has made a second appearance in election leaflets sent to thousands of homes in Exeter and across the region.
Leader Nigel Farage faced criticism when it was revealed that his personal assistant Lizzy Vaid was not a normal member of the public and worked in London rather than living in Devon.
She featured on a page in the UKIP European election manifesto saying why she was voting UKIP and tagged as Lizzy Vaid, Devon.
Now she has made another appearance on the doorsteps of voters in Devon when she appeared on eight page election leaflet sent to homes throughout the county and around the region.
This leaflet was published by their regional officer Lisa Duffy from their local base at King Charles Business Park in Heathfield, near Newton Abbot, South Devon.
It features a two page section entitled "Facts at your fingertips about Britain and the EU" which is illustrated with an unnamed woman who is shown listening attentively to a white man.
She is dressed smartly in a white top and pink cardigan with her hands crossed and long dark hair flowing over her left shoulder.
The two pages set out the supposed advantages of leaving Europe and the costs of staying in. The feature ends with the words "and, of course, we'll be able to control immigration'.
When asked about the manifesto picture last week Mr Farage said:"The fact that Lizzy Vaid is half-Indian and works for is, as far as we are concerned, a non-issue."
