In 2018 bankruptcy was narrowly averted when a UKIP MEP libelled three Labour MPs forced a compensation payment of £175,000.
In his fund-raising push UKIP leader Gerard Batten said: "Brexit has been betrayed. The 17.4 million leave voters have been betrayed and if you were one of those voters, you have been betrayed.
"Ukip will take part in these European elections on a platform of unilateral, unconditional withdrawal.
"No compromise. No surrender.
"We have got our 73 candidates in place but we still need money to help them fight the best fight they possibly can.
"We don’t rely on big business or the trade unions. We don’t have vested-interest donors.
"We only have ordinary members and donors who donate to us on an individual basis."
