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

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 ´óÏó´«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".
