flamingsombrero Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 The main thing that has struck me about the steady stream of UKIP scandals is how utterly terrible each of the implicated members has been at lying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post peterms Posted May 17, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted May 17, 2013 I think it's a sad reflection on our so-called "democracy" that people keep making fun of the leader of one of our major political parties. As a partial contribution to setting that right, I'd like to share a photo of Mr Farage which I think has a tone of dignity appropriately befitting his stature. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisp65 Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 And clearly Farage doesn't or doesn't want to understand the term fascist I think in his defence, he was looking for a word a bit like racist, but not racist as he understood the irony that would involve. I'd imagine a man that wants out of Europe because he wants to be his own boss and not tied to a remote undemocratic superstate would wholeheartedly side with the SNP on separation.

peterms Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Why are the BBC so keen to put UKIP down ?? On the contrary, they have given this tiresome windbag more airtime, and more respect, than possibly justified. Check how many times he's been on question time in the last three years. Look at (or rather listen to) the polite interview on Radio Scotland this morning, ending with him slamming down the phone in a fit of petulance, and reported in pretty neutral terms rather than pointing out his stupidity and immaturity in having a hissy fit on air. I wish they would treat him more like the other party leaders, instead of this odd hands-off, let's-not-push-too-hard-in-case-he-cries nonsense. Give the daft prat a proper broadside, and see how he copes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Salma Yaqoob appeared on QT several times when she was leader of the respect party, so they do give the minority parties a fair representation. Of course George Galloway has appeared on it several times since he hijacked the party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
