UKIP MEP: Henwood's Lenny Henry comments "unacceptable"

5 Live In Short

Available for over a year

UKIP MEP Roger Helmer responds to comments made by party candidate William Henwood in which he said Lenny Henry should emigrate to a "black country". Mr Henwood told ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ political correspondent Ross Hawkins: "I think if black people come to this country and don't like mixing with white people why are they here? If he (Henry) wants a lot of blacks around go and live in a black country." UKIP said it was a "non-racist, non-sectarian party whose members are expected to uphold these values". This clip is from Stephen Nolan on Saturday 26 April.
