Still coming -

[Lt Kije]

Is that one hundred and fifty thousand Obs?

[P J]

Think you need to get a grip - 5.5 million ?   Working? The "UKIP councillor" is no longer a "UKIP member"' thought with your penchant for substituting gossip for argument, you'd have raised Nigel's alleged extra-marital activity ! Can't have policies getting in the way of personalities can we, so keep playing the man instead of the ball, it's about all you've got for May !.

Ah another numpty bites the dust when his unsavoury views cost Farage votes.

 

Policy theres another thing Farage does away with on a regular basis.  Here are a selection from his 2010 manifesto.

 

Restricting foreigners on football teams

 

"Ukip feels the [lack of success of British teams] is largely a legacy of many British teams having too few British players in the team, and teams like Arsenal have taken to the field in the recent past with none whatsoever … Ukip would place a maximum of three foreign players in the starting line-up, as this would free up places for British players in the youth academies of these teams and spur the future development of home teams."

 

Proper dress in theatres

"Ukip will encourage a return to proper dress for major hotels, restaurants and theatres – smarter dress is part of Britishness, although it is also a British virtue to encourage innovation in fashion."

 

Investigating discrimination against white people at the BBC

"Ukip will pursue inquiries into alleged discrimination in favour of ethnic minority candidates in media outlets, such as the BBC, where there are allegations that white presenters had training stopped when training continued for non-white presenters."

 

Teaching more about the British empire and role of Arabs and Africans in slavery

"The patchy and biased teaching of history in schools, often very anti-British, is a major problem for a cohesive society. Part of the improved teaching will be a fair and factual analysis of the history of the British empire, which celebrates its achievements in terms of democracy, law, freedoms and trade and does not just acknowledge its faults. The issue of slavery in particular would also reflect the greater levels of trade by Arab slave traders (including the seizing of English citizens for slaves from the south-west), the role of African tribes in the trade and [William] Wilberforce's world-leading abolition campaign."

 

Making the Circle line a circle again

"Ukip will return London's Circle line to a circle – the complete circular service recently stopped. We will build grade-separated junctions to improve the number of trains and their reliability at Edgware Road, Gloucester Road and Aldgate."

 

Referendum on new mosques and banning the burqa

"Ukip would ban the wearing of the burqa and niqab veils in public places, as facial coverings are a major symbol of Wahhabism. Ukip would require a referendum for the building of any new religious place of worship, including mosques and 'Mega Mosques'."

 

Inquiry into Muslim-dominated 'no-go' areas

 

"Ukip is deeply concerned at the death threats made to Bishop Nazir Ali, the courageous bishop of Rochester, and the feeble reaction and false denial by the political establishment of his claims that there are Muslim-dominated 'no-go' areas in Britain. Ukip will hold a wide-ranging public inquiry to establish the truth into claims of 'no-go' areas and their causes, if proven."

 

Cancelling visas for failure to uphold British values

"All visas issued to non-British citizens will contain a summary of British values, and a commitment to uphold those values. Conspicuous failure to uphold those values, such as violent or criminal behaviour, will lead to the visa being automatically cancelled."

 

Glamorous railways

 

"Ukip will encourage a return to the glamour, grace and style of the railway companies of the past through its railway policies. Ukip seeks a return to 'Pullman' trains where justified, with appropriate branding such as 'Great Western Railway', one of the most successful British brands ever."

 

Giving MPs more freedom over their expenses

 

"We believe that in reality MPs must be awarded a degree of freedom and trust to manage their affairs, despite the recent scandals, and that providing opportunities to enrich themselves through the office are properly restricted … any small and inconsequential 'gains' such as first-class travel ought simply to be considered a minor perk and there is a practical need for MPs to be able to work during frequent travelling. It is unreasonable and unfeasible to ensure efficient and appropriate use for every £1, however the overall system must prevent excessive abuses being possible."

 

Restoration of imperial measures and the crown symbol on pint glasses

"Ukip would restore imperial measures for all weights and measures, restoring the crown symbol on pint glasses (now illegal under EU rules), safeguarding the mile, allowing the sale of vegetables and fruit in pounds and ounces, restoring acres not hectares, and require all media, businesses, schools and colleges to use imperial alongside metric measurements."

 

Repainting the trains in traditional colours

"The unseemly haste with which National Express destroyed the quality GNER brand by painting out its heraldry on service trains standing at rail stations was a disgrace. As with the iconic red bus in London, so the government should insist on a modernised form of traditional branding – chocolate and cream for Great Western, scarlet red for Midland, apple green for the east coast. These are icons of Britishness. Go-Ahead has shown the way with an excellent, tasteful branding of its Southern network."

 

Banning windfarms in case they harm fish

 

"Ukip would oppose all wind generated electrical power, particularly offshore, on cost and efficiency grounds. Offshore windfarms would impinge on established fishing grounds and there has been no research on how the magnetic and sonic vibrations of big wind turbines mounted on huge towers in deep water might affect fish."

 

The same income tax level for rich and poor

 

"Ukip will combine income tax and national insurance into a flat-rate income tax of 31% for all incomes over £11,500."

 

More swearing of allegiance to the Queen

 

"We deeply regret the drift towards swearing oaths of allegiance to the state rather than the monarchy, as with new policemen, which ignores the carefully balanced constitutional arrangement of Britain and risks elevating the authority of the government further. Ukip would require a comprehensive return to swearing allegiance to the Crown from all public servants and British subjects."

 

Cheaper beer

 

"Ukip would cut duty and taxes on traditional draught beers such as real ale, ciders and some lagers. Ukip would also allow landlords to write off against tax promotional costs for traditional beers through pub posters, beer mats and giveaways."

 

Opt-in sex education

 

"We will abolish 'Circle Time' discussion groups and scrap sex and relationships education in schools completely for children under the age of 10, except in the context of biology. We will make it optional for 10- to 11-year-olds – with parents choosing to opt their children in rather than having to opt out."

 

Banning European studies at universities

 

"We will abolish all lectureships and courses in European studies, including the 357 Jean Monnet projects in British universities. These are funded by the European Union, and are little more than avenues for pro-EU propaganda."

 

Letting schools bring back the cane

 

"We will pass legislation that establishes beyond doubt that schools and teachers have the right to discipline pupils without fearing legal action. Ukip will also give schools the choice of whether or not to use corporal punishment, but does not advocate this as a party."

 

Abolishing statutory maternity pay

 

"Rather than playing the 'money-go-round' with the attendant administrative burden, Ukip would abolish SMP entirely and simply allow parents who stay at home with their children to claim a weekly parental allowance set at the same level as the basic cash benefit proposed in our welfare policy (in other words, around £64 per week for parents aged 25 and above) regardless of how long they are off work and regardless of the other spouse's income."

 

No more 'equality' laws

 

"Ukip would scrap most 'equality and discrimination' legislation, cap all compensation payments and allow common sense to prevail. Ukip would punish fraudulent, mischievous complainants, including punishment for legal representatives who institute grossly excessive, speculative or fraudulent claims (such as some 'no win no fee' solicitors) through legal sanctions."

 

Like I said, bunch of numpties if you take out cheaper beer they have nowt lol.  They are standing in an election to become part of a Union they claim to abhor so hypocrites to boot.  They may pick up the protest votes in May, traditionally this was the vote cow for the Lib dems but as they threw all their principles in the bin for a pretence at power its up for grabs.  Thing is they will always fail miserably when the voters know it matters as you found when you tried your hand standing for a no mark party.

[observer]

Well, thanks for the list: with the exception of the tax one and the MPs expenses; yet more reasons to vote for UKIP !  So I think your left with name calling and gossip till May !

[P J]

If you were ever in any doubt whatsoever as to how big a whopper this geezer Farage is then please watch this.  You will love it Observer its all about his policies, not who he is bunking up with at the taxpayers expense. Would any self respecting human being vote for this?????? 

 

 

 

Think I definitely took the ball here lol

Not really pal, he has dumped them or at least disowned them lol.  watch your hero in the video, he is a proper whopper.  A dress code for taxi drivers, overseen by Government,  for Gods sake.  When this quilt goes down the pan who's mast are you going to nail your colours to next?  

[observer]

You obviously don't get it;  UKIP is merely a box for none of the others; the others are all committed to the EU so why would anyone wanting out of the EU want to vote for them? Think it's called a protest vote, and IF most folk vote like they talk, May will be interesting.

[observer]

So no point in trying to rubbish UKIP then, as folk who want "OUT" have no choice.

They need absolutely no help from me in that department.

[observer]

Oh I think so;  the main Parties believe they have a divine right to monopolise the electoral process; so I think we can look forward to one of the dirtiest campaigns we've ever seen.
