Ukip's Steven Woolfe is being investigated for electoral fraud just days after he was expelled from the party's leadership race.

Mr Woolfe, the party's migration spokesman, is being investigated by Greater Manchester Police over claims he did not declare a conviction for drink driving when he stood for the role of Police and Crime Commissioner in 2012.

The force has received a complaint about Mr Woolfe's 2002 conviction which would have barred him from standing for the role in 2012.
