That is everyone's favourite fruitcake Nigel Farage, UKIP leader, in response to being referred to as 'anti-women' by a former UKIP party member. How absolutely lovely Hmm

Article here

Apparently a UKIP party member owns a lapdancing club, and when asked about it, Farage said that he has been to lap dancing clubs himself in the past. Well that's alright then.

Sickening as all this is, I'm glad it's come out because it just shows another ugly dimension to the UKIP party's beliefs.

what does anti-women mean? does it mean he doesn't believe women should exist? like anti-fox hunting? Confused

In his own words including the frankly terrifying quote "Godfrey's comment that 'no employer with a brain in the right place would employ a young, single, free woman' has been proved so right. With this lunacy, that if you have children you get three months paid leave off work, or six months paid leave off work - he absolutely got it spot on."

He's not liked by the women in his party at all

Good grief. He must be one of those fruitcakes people who think that women on maternity leave just sit around having manicures and blow drys. What a twit Hmm

Oh god grimbletart, he sounds like the world's biggest bore. The comparison to Clarkson is a good one actually - self-regarding, egomaniac, misogynist, attention-seeking and vile.

Not to mention sexually incontinent it appears.

I cannot stand this mysogynistic egotist.
And the BBC KEEP booking him for Question Time that well known tory mouthpiece objective political show.

And ignorant of maternity law - six weeks at 90% pay, Nige, then a flat weekly rate for 33 more weeks.

So is my town (norfolk)
Worryingly a 'friend' (who i have discovered is a mail reader) says she going to vote for them.
I'm going to have to think hard about tactical voting as I know how many other mail readers there are around

DonDrapersAltrEgoBigglesDraper · 25/04/2013 08:54

Yes, because only women have children. We're all impregnated by the angel Gabriel. Busy dude.

MooncupGoddess · 25/04/2013 08:58

He's the sort of guy who says, 'Who, me, a misogynist? you've got it quite wrong, love, I absolutely worship the ladies (nudge nudge, wink wink).'

Xenia · 25/04/2013 09:36

Also they are not likely to get in so will just waste a vote if you vote for them.

'He's the sort of guy who says, 'Who, me, a misogynist? you've got it quite wrong, love, I absolutely worship the ladies (nudge nudge, wink wink).''

Absolutely. He probably also claims that he 'loves women' and proves it by going to lapdancing clubs Hmm. And I bet he's one of those who claims that men and women are inherently different in so many ways, and have different talents by virtue of their sex e.g. men - putting up shelves, mowing the lawn, making all the decisions: women - having babies, doing all the hard slog stuff with the children, doing all the cooking and cleaning and being a shag puppet and er, that's it. Tosser.

I would like to see all women boycotting men like Nige. It's the only way.
