Sadly, I heard him live on the radio the other week saying pretty much the same thing.

Is this the chap that said "women are better at getting the mustard out of the cupboard than parking"?

I blogged about him years ago - will try to find it.

It's totally true. Not a bit misquoted.

This is a man who joined a women's rights committee at the European Parliament because he wanted to promote his view that "a woman's place is cleaning behind the fridge". I don't think he is an isolated nutter either - apparently UKIP want to abolish maternity leave.

Yes, Farage spoke out in defence of him during his webchat

Was quite a funny webchat, if I remember rightly
