The media and the other political parties are running a huge all out campaign against UKIP as the MEP elections start hotting up.
They're finding it extremely difficult and even somewhat baffling, everything they come up with to smear UKIP or Farage is having no effect whatsoever, if anything the increased publicity is only bolstering their support.
As much as I like UKIP, I'd easily jump ship for a more mainsteam party that held similar libertarian values. But most people who vote for UKIP probably just want limits on mass immigration and they're not getting that from any of the other established parties.
You can't make people say that Lenny Henry should live in a country with black people.
I find UKIP deeply un-libertarian.

It's also daft he lives in the West Mids with old Rocker.

Well first of all Nigel Farrage points out despite being amongst the smallest minority in the UK, Romanians are the seocnd most widely arrested. This is fact checked and accurate, the problem is the EU welcomed Rumania into the EU with less checks than a blowjob loving bouncer in a dodgy night club.
Meaning we're carrying the can for their incredibly racist government, refusing to educate or employ a large minority in a manner that would shame Aparhteid South Africa. And making swiping mobis at hairdressers and picking pockets a real career.
I'm so tired of main party politicians dodging the real stories by being so f**king dull.
I say no politician should be interviewed in the news, until they've had 6 pints of Stella and spun around a dozen times with a broom.

If that was an official policy then I would agree with you, but when you're trawling for Tweets off a single crackpot candidate to say that is how the party operates, then you're in big trouble.
Red Ken called a Jewish journalist a Nazi and the Lib Dems had a councillor who was arrested for aggravated racial assault, but you don't suggest they're racist parties.
UKIP are offering a choice over Europe and mass immigration, no one else is. No choice, no liberty.
PS - Congrats on getting engaged to George Clooney Jennie!!

I concur.
I think UKIP work on what I'd call left over policies.
If you ask 1000 people if hand guns should be legalised 100 will be agree
If you ask 1000 people if the NHS should be shrunk 50 will agree.
If you ask 1000 people if The Black and White Minstrel show should be back on prime time TV, 5 will agree
But if you run all those policies together, you've got 155 supporters. Do it enough with out causing too much clashing and you've got a power base albeit only one big enough to get you on the telly and an MEP.

I have drawn up my own bucket list and number one is to have sex with someone from Wales in black and white makeup, in a top hat, whilst they sing old timey songs.

Well you could use Real Blacks & Real Whites nowadays, so it might be interesting to bring it back.

A Case of Selfie Destruct -
http://news.sky.com/story/1250747/driver-dies-after-posting-facebook-selfie
A woman took a selfie of herself and updated it to Facebook as she was driving down a highway in North Carolina. A few seconds later, she crossed the central reservation and was instantly killed by an oncoming truck.
She was listening to the Pharell Williams song 'Happy' and saying how happy she was...so I guess she died happy?
I want to feel sorry for this tragic loss of a young life, but this selfie shit has got to stop. We get it vain people, it's nice when you put a picture up of yourself and others like it and write nice comments. But some people are so addicted to receiving digital confirmation on their looks that their risking their lives...and more importantly, the lives of others.

He made a lot of enemies and had dirt on everyone, whether he committed these crimes or not, there were big players who wanted to see him put away.
Well if every lusty impresario with a stained casting couch is going to be Yewtreed, then HMP is going to start building some new jails.

Agreeing mostly, I think selfies are a dire narcissistic new trend.
But the driving thing, we need to start treating driving like what it is. You're responsible for a very heavy, piece of machinery, full of combustible material moving at high speed.
Eating, drinking, arguing, dicking about with mobiles all need a 3 month ban and a fine.
Followed by a custodial sentence for repeat offenders and if you hit someone license gone for life, end of.
Driving licences need to be treated exactly like firearms or pilot licenses.
People moan about special treatment for Muslims and gypsies, it's drivers who are the real coddled minority.
I mean would any other person who killed someone try this bull shit out.
In the good old days she'd be hanging from a tree whilst kids whacked her corpse with sticks.

There's not much in this world that shocks me, but that is unbelievable. Wish I hadn't read that now - maybe I can sue The Independent for emotional trauma?
