James has been elected as the new leader of the UK Independence Party.
Ms James had been regarded as the favourite to succeed Nigel Farage, who
quit as leader following the UK's vote to leave the EU. The MEP for
South East England won with 8,451 votes. Her nearest rival, Lisa Duffy,
received 4,591.
Speaking about Brexit, Ms James warned "we have only
just won a heat" in a "28-member state Olympic competition to leave the
European Union".
