If you have missed a job application deadline we’d like to hear from you. Steven Woolfe, a Ukip MEP, has insisted his application to lead his party was sent on time, despite the nomination not being received until 12.17pm on Sunday, 17 minutes past the midday deadline. Perhaps you fortuitously missed out only to later be offered a job elsewhere? Woolfe said he hoped the party would accept his application and he did not have to challenge any adverse decision in court. I sent them at eight minutes past,” he said.
