Catherine Blaiklock (born April 1963) is an English nationalist politician, financial trader and hotelier who was the founder and first leader of the Brexit Party, a political party established in January 2019 to support a no-deal Brexit. She was forced to resign as leader in March 2019 when it was disclosed she had made anti-Islamic and racist statements online.[9] Blaiklock had been the Economics Spokesperson for the UK Independence Party (UKIP), which she left in late 2018.[7] Before entering politics in 2016, she worked as a financial currency and derivatives trader.[10] She also founded a Nepali healthcare charity with her ex-husband, an Everest Sherpa.[6] Her father was polar explorer Ken Blaiklock.
