Blay's election rival Ranil Jayawardena has been tipped as a future Prime Minister and is sure to win a seat in the general election.
The UKIP candidate said “it makes me quite sick.
"But I’ve always said in my constituency you could put a monkey out there with a blue rosette on and it would win.”
Blay added: “His (Jayawardena’s) family have only been here since the Seventies. You are not British enough to be in our parliament.
“I’ve got 400 years of ancestry where I live. He hasn’t got that.
“I said to his dad about two months ago – ‘When did you come to Britain?’ He said ‘In the “Seventies’.”
“I said ‘Why did you come?’ He said ‘Things weren’t very good politically in Sri Lanka and I came here and I could train as an accountant’.”
“So he’s come here and ponced off us hasn’t he like all the East Europeans are? That’s what is happening. Continually.”
