Every time a UKIP person speaks, they want to say rape within marriage is ok, Lenny Henry should go back to Black Land, bit too scared to stand in a by election just now...yet

PEOPLE ARE STILL DESPERATE TO VOTE FOR THEM.

What hope is there? Humanity is as truly doomed as ever.

For me it's UKIP all the way in the EU elections - I really hope they gain a good number of seats. I want to be represented in the EU by a strongly anti EU MEP. I wouldn't vote for them in a general election though - mainly because I think that would be playing into the hands of the filthy Labour scum who'll just piss all my taxes away on fucking dole scroungers and wars.

Err are you being ironic bigdog?

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 02/05/2014 08:44

YANBU, of course gay people marrying causes flooding, what else could it possibly be?

dawndonnaagain · 02/05/2014 08:57

Ahh, big dog, is it time for school yet?

bigdog888 · 02/05/2014 08:58

WTF?

UKIP leaflet in Staffordshire. Hmm

to love UKIP?
caruthers · 02/05/2014 09:01

This is another thread full of conjecture and made up fairy stories.

Fortunately UKIP and their upcoming 'earthquake' will seal the deal on the sycophants and their followers.

Likening UKIP to the Nazi party is as ridiculous as it gets.

dawndonnaagain · 02/05/2014 09:02

Just out of interest Bigdog why do you want to lock my children up?

RandallFloyd · 02/05/2014 09:08

Where will it end indeed, Dawn?

People wanting to marry the person they love regardless of their gender?
It's a slippery slope you mark my words.

angelos02 · 02/05/2014 09:13

Its pretty simple really. If one of the mainstream parties tackled immigration, UKIP wouldn't even be on the radar.

OxfordBags · 02/05/2014 09:16

No, you're right, Caruthers - the Nazis only killed disabled children once they were born, not proposed killing them in the womb.

niceguy2 · 02/05/2014 09:24

To a point I agree Angelos. However it depends on what you mean by "tackle"

As UKIP love to remind us, there's no restrictions on EU migrants anymore. So non of the major parties can do anything other than leave the EU. Labour & Lib Dems aren't up for that and the Tories are making the right noises but ultimately will see the folly too.

Unfortunately immigration has become the whipping boy for our economic woes. A few years ago it was bankers that were the root of all evil. Now thanks to the press and UKIP's agenda it's immigration.

From what I've read if you take immigration as a whole, it's benefited our country rather than made it worse. Of course there are challenges. But the press portrayal of immigrant crime sprees and benefit scroungers are completely disproportionate to the vast majority who come, get a job and get on with life.

UKIP have played a blinder in this respect. They've played the immigration card well and tapped into the fears of the many.

The truth is that in the long run we do need immigration so we can get young workers to fill a growing economy and in twenty years time, pay taxes for the pensions for our OAP's (ie. ourselves).

DownstairsMixUp · 02/05/2014 09:31

It's so depressing. I only have a few friends on facebook (less than 50) so thought I'd weeded out the twats, but still had to delete 3 people posting UKIP crap. :(

bigdog888 · 02/05/2014 09:33

Just out of interestBigdogwhy do you want to lock my children up

I know nothing about your children but have no desire to lock anyone's children up unless they're criminals! Nor does UKIP btw.

angelos02 · 02/05/2014 09:40

I'm not saying stop immigration. Just implement a points system. If you have a skill we need, great. If not, you don't get entry to the UK. I don't believe for a second that mass unskilled immigration is good for the country. The amount of tax you pay on the minimum wage no-where near covers the cost of using the NHS, schools etc.

dawndonnaagain · 02/05/2014 09:42

The policy may have been taken down Bigdog but it still applies, alternatively,this is what you are voting for. Do not try and pretend they are anything other than Nazis.

niceguy2 · 02/05/2014 09:44

We already have a points based system for immigration. But it only applies to non-EU nationals because one of the founding principles of the EU is the free movement of labour.

That's why UKIP are banging on so much about leaving the EU to regain control of our borders.

caruthers · 02/05/2014 09:52

Thanks for helping UKIPs cause by suggesting UKIP are Nazis.

The irony of that silencing tactic whilst referring to someone else as a Nazi is deafening.

And priceless.

dawndonnaagain · 02/05/2014 09:53

UKIP Health Policy before its removal: section six Healthcare and the NHS:”Re-examine community care and support congregate communities for people withlearning disabilities.”

dawndonnaagain · 02/05/2014 09:54

I haven't silenced anybody. Have you looked at the link Caruthers I would like you to be sure of what you are voting for.

Hullygully · 02/05/2014 09:57

Discriminating against people on the basis of skin colour, sexual orientation, mental and physical able/disablement, wanting to close borders and build a nice white society....er...it certainly reminds me of a swastika-bedecked policy or two.
