Farage no-show

He already knows the outcome. UK says yes to leaving. USA says you're staying.

UKIP can force a debate, a 'shot across the bows of the government' as I said above, but what will the long term changes really be? I think a lot of this stuff Cameron is going on about is only happening because a general election is about 5 months away. Politicians always pretend they're going to do something about immigration when an election is looming - then drop the idea after the election.

I feel a bit sad for old Nige.

Must be really hard when fuckwits can turn what he says or does into a context as they see it to be for their own gain.

Poor bloke even ended up being supported by a reporter, who was at pains to do it because of her sheer loathing for him, when a radio station released an email saying what he did on breastfeeding, by actually portraying what he said, as he'd said it but still the fuckwits were out in 'force' to have a pop at the poor chap.

Don't understand your point here.

It's perfectly clear here what he said. And he was talking like a pratt.

Another day, another UKIP cock-up.............

All together now.............

I must say, despite having not much time for Russell Brand's "political" views, I loved his description of Farage as a "pound shop Enoch Powell"

Spot on. And all these revelations coming out illustrate that he is leading a rag tag and bobtail party of fantasists and empty headed loudmouths.

I think there is a bit of professional jealousy between Russell and Nigel.

Russell doesn?t like it that Nigel is taking work away from him on the stand-up comedy circuit.

Yes and I am sure that the same thing was said about Keir Hardie and his cohorts in 1900.

[David Johnson]

Not by me.

I am sure people have said all sorts about all sorts of parties for centuries. So what? That does not invalidate my view.
