I confess I don't know what the UKIP policies are, but wondered if the people voting for them could explain to me what they are please. Thanks.

UKIP want to expel people though.

BollyGood · 05/05/2013 22:32

George83 sorry that random comment was in response to yours up thread

BollyGood · 05/05/2013 22:33

beatback you say it like it is.

gabsid · 05/05/2013 22:36

Would they oppose to a real presence in government though? If people did vote for them in the general election?

BUT within the rubbish,they are things that people who dont understand Politics sound good to them,"HE IS SOMEONE WHO THINKS LIKE US " WHY SHOULD WE PAY FOR THE E.U" "WHAT HAVE WE GOT OUT OF IMIGRATION". You cant blame ordinary people for thinking that way because most people have had a "POOR EDUCATION" in the uk and EDUCATION is not just about ACADEMIC QUALIFACTIONS. Some of the most bigoted people i know are DOCTORS SCHOOL TEACHERS and other people with high quality academic qualifactions.

BAD GRAMMAR I KNOW SORRY"

The whole tone emanating from UKIP leaves a bad taste in my mouth, more so than other parties.

One of the benefits of "FIRST PAST THE POST"is that over the years it has stopped extreme parties getting,repersentation in parliment,and although it is "UNDEMOCRATIC IN PRINCIPLE" it has a least kept the EXTREME PARTIES OUT OF PARLIMENT.

Why on earth are people discussing expelling jews and immigration?

What has this got to do with UKIP? In my view, absolutely nothing. There is nothing in UKIP's policies that even hints at anti semitism or racism or other bias. The bottom line for immigration is have you been here and contributed for 7 years or more, if not then you may have to tick some boxes or go home. Refugees will still have refugee status, etc etc et bloody cetera

I find it despicable that this cannot be discussed without misrepresentation and downright lies, how on earth you could link UKIP with nazi germany i don't know, its laughable! I'm so annoyed i just donated £100 to UKIP, i hope they use the money on getting their points across to even more voters.

BollyGood · 05/05/2013 22:53

jaywall UKIP want to abolish diversity in the workplace, does that not speak volumes to you!

BollyGood · 05/05/2013 22:54

Your money.

NiceTabard · 05/05/2013 22:56

jaywall how do you feel about UKIP's policy from their webiste which says

"- · Establish an ?Exclusive Economic Zone? extending 200 nautical miles from the UK?s coastline over which the UK exerts total control"

?

jaywall · 05/05/2013 22:56

Facts Bollygood, show me facts otherwise it's just mumsnet propaganda or MNP as it shall now be known. (by me anyway)

beatback · 05/05/2013 22:57

THEY ARE NOT GOING TO EXPELL PEOPLE WHO ARE VERY RICH AND SUCCESFUL ARE THEY,CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THE U.K ECONOMY IF ASIANS JEWS AND SUCCESFUL BLACKS WERE ASKED TO LEAVE IDI AMIN STYLE. I have started writing in CAPITALS because i cant believe that so called Educated people are saying this rubbish. THE U.K IS NOT UGANDA 1976.

beatback · 05/05/2013 22:59

DONT PICK ME UP ON SUCCESFUL BLACKS I MEAN ALL BLACK PEOPLE.

LazarussLozenge · 05/05/2013 22:59

Taking Bolly's advice to read the whole thread I have... and dipped n to the UKIP paperwork where necessary.

There seems to be ALOT of 1+1=Z going on in this thread.

Possibly not helped by a few silly policies/ideas on UKIPs behalf. Same sex marriage for example.

jaywall · 05/05/2013 23:00

NiceTabard

Show me the link please,

This seems like a sound policy, to claim fishing and mineral rights over that area, where it does not infringe other nations rights. We used to manage our fish stocks a damn sight better than the current system where the stocks are landed elsewhere (spain) and are not checked to the same level we check our landed stock in the UK.

*And, the UK is not going to be overrun by Romanians and Bulgarians. We are paying into the EU, but we also get lots back. I kept seeing the UKIP posters around here: Enough is enough! Stop Immigration or something.

There is a slogan Hitler used in the late 1920s or ealy 30s: Enough now! Vote Hitler! Refering to being exploited and taken over by jews. Only 1% of the German population was Jewish! He gathered votes by promising solving local issues and he promised quick fixes to the economy.*

jaywall this is how the discussion came to be centred around nazi Germany, no problem with this post. It was an insensitive comment by another poster which made most people angry, not even related to UKIP actually it was their personal take on something.

LazarussLozenge · 05/05/2013 23:01

Bolly, how is UKIP abolishing diversity in the work place?

BollyGood · 05/05/2013 23:04

jaywall I feel no need to convince you, you have already given money to UKIP which is entirely your business and no-one else's. if you want to question me (and it is MY opinion not MN propaganda- odd thing to write, but anyway...) then read the policies. Although I get the feeling you already are either a member of UKIP or considering it.

NiceTabard · 05/05/2013 23:04

jaywall, 200 nautical miles will take in (by eye, on google maps) most of the north coast of france, the belgian coast, some of the dutch coast and much of the irish coast as well.

here

Tell me why you think that is a good idea?

BollyGood · 05/05/2013 23:05

lazarus read my thread earlier, I took it directly from the UKIP website. If you haven't the time, not being patronising, it is a long thread, I will inbox you the link tomorrow to the section on the UKIP site.

Get rid of maternity rights or leave it up to the employer.
