By EUOBSERVER
UKIP leadership contender Steven Woolfe is in hospital after collapsing in the European Parliament in Strasbourg. British media report the MEP was punched and hit his head during a brawl with UKIP colleagues, but exact circumstances are unknown. Woolfe was leading the race for the party's vacant leadership position. His only rival, Raheem Kassam, editor in chief at right-wing news site Breitbart UK, halted campaigning after the news emerged.
