Ukip's carnival of chaos: Event designed to prove Farage's party is not racist descends into farce when steel band refuses to play

Nigel Farage's latest attempt to prove Ukip is not racist descended into farce today when a steel band refused to play at a bizarre 'Carnival' in Croydon.

The party hoped it would be a 'bold and vibrant' event to dismiss criticism that the party is racist, after a torrid week which has seen Mr Farage accused of making offensive comments against Romanians.

But as protesters clashed with party members and Mr Farage failed to turn up, musicians booked to play complained they did not know it involved Ukip - and packed up and left.
