This is the man who wants to privatise the NHS, hold a referendum on abortion, allow firms to discriminate against gay people and kick all Scots MP's out of Westminster.

The last item should get him quite a few votes.

Is it just me or does the new UKIP leader looks....kind of familiar?

Looks like Eddie thinks like Adolf

I find that comment very offensive.

UKIP Member

He knows, he's offended because he's a ukip Member.

I think all those items are potential vote winners SFD, were they to be adopted as UKIP Policies.
Just as their policy of Managing Immigration certainly is.

It is still offensive that in a union between Scotland and England the Scots should be kicked out of Westminster. Whether that is a vote catcher or not, Scots have as much right to be there as any other British politician especially there are a lot more of them than UKIP .

As long as there is a union then Scottish politicians are entitled to be at Westminster. Westminster has control of Foreign policy, defence, most taxes, EU membership etc and all member countries should be allowed to have a say. English politicians, being in the majority, can dictate things, very often to the detriment of the other constituent countries.

Interesting that you believe that discrimination against gay people will be a vote winner Geoff.

I can't help think you may be a tad out of touch.

So let's just add xenophobic, homophobic ant-abortionist to your CV shall we Geoff?

there was a referendum on PR and it was rejected. Just as with Brexit you must respect the result.

You can do whatever you like.
But those issues are not necessarily my own views. However, I think they are views held
by many in the UK who, thanks to "PC", are afraid to put their heads over the parapet.
However they will vote (which of course is secret/private in the UK) accordingly.
UKIP got 4 million votes in the General Election - to answer Zorbathejock that means
that if UK had PR UKIP would have more seats at Westminster than the SNP.
Geoff.

Nothing to do with being PC at all Geoff and all to do with a more tolerant society than 50 years or so even.....with views like that I am afraid UKIP are aligning themselves with the likes of the BNP. I think you will find the tolerant majority outnumber what is probably a significant but ignorant minority. We all have our prejudices, yes I think the Multi cultural experiment experiment in the UK has failed and immigrants to the UK should integrate fully into its society, but I see no problem with them maintaining their own cultural identity within that. I detest the blame culture or the "outraged" of Suburbia attitude of those determined to complain about anything they find "phobic", it does the LGBT, Islamic, minority etc etc communities no favours whatsoever...But we live in a tolerant society, well most of us do...

When did you last live in the UK Geoff before you became an immigrant?

Vote UKIP you say but fly an English flag. Hardly UK.

The man is a charlatan Geoffrey's and I'm surprised that you support him. He has made several false claims that have since been proved to be untrue. Why someone would support and promote a person who blatantly lies to further his own ends is beyond me.

" look back with nostalgia to when Britain was the sick man of Europe; people tend to forget the state of the UK prior to the EU."

Niall Ferguson says of the decline of the British Empire

"In the end, the British sacrificed the Empire to stop the Germans, Japanese and Italians from keeping theirs. Did not that sacrifice alone expunge all the Empire's other sins? It did the right thing, regardless of the cost. And that was why the ultimate, if reluctant, heir of Britain's global power was not one of the evil empires of the East, but Britain's most successful former colony."

While money was poured into rebuilding Germany after 1945, to enable it to become the industrial powerhouse of Europe, Britain was left shouldering the huge debt it owed to the USA for its reluctant involvement and was still paying back when the people of Britain were duped into voting to join what became the EU, by another lying politician - Edward Heath - who declared that it was a trade agreement we were voting for, when he knew it was nothing of the kind.

Britain has the fastest growing economy in the western world, despite the Brexit vote - while the economies of the EU stagnate, because they are not free to make trade agreements outside the beaurocracy, and are tied to a currency that is crippling many of the member countries, from which they have no hope of recovery whilst remaining members.

If France votes for Le Pen, as seems likely, then that will be another large nail in the EU's coffin. The EU is crumbling. We may not have an EU to leave in two years.

anyway that is by the by; this is about the leader of UKIP.

I wouldn't vote for any racist or Fascist entity no matter what they promised.
