I think, possibly like many people, I am yearning for a new generation of politicians. I no longer trust the establishment to be custodian of my interests. I believe being a politician has become a career choice, like being an X Factor contestant trying to be a celebrity.

I don't personally see Farage as anything different to the others. So I still hunt for good, honest politicians.
Have they changed or are you just older and smarter?

I suspect most people reach an age when they suddenly 'get' politics and that it is all about dishonesty and weaselling. And this probably happens around the time that you are raising children and grafting hard to have almost no patience for such scrotes.

I certainly agree that this generation of 40+ middle ground, privately educated weasels could all do with being replaced with a different group of weasels but whatever happens the very nature of politics is that it attracts weasels and only a weasel can rise to the top. Find a politician you respect and trust and you'll be looking at a failed politician in reality.

How does a UKIP supporter separate them self from the racists though? The party clearly attracts this element of society.

Also, if a cause is valid in its integrity, why would it seek allegiance with extremists? Surely that's a sign of weakness?
Why would the Labour party have associated itself with a liberal elite that covered up Child abuse, if the information coming out is to be believed, then the higher echelons of the criminal system and the secret services were aware, therefore senior politicians would have been briefed in, this line of logic has nowhere to go, unless one applies selective reasoning, due to ones own preconceptions and political views.
The questions logically are could it happen now, what have the parties done, or are doing to sort it, what part does real politik play in calculations, etc

What we can conclude is all parties have had (and will continue to have) issues, are they being addressed is the key factor (and whether we believe them).
Primarily because it is of the moment and overt. There isn't a single political party without skeletons, loony fringe members, unsavoury associations and the ability at any time to execute vile actions. I think that is a given amongst all us logical thinkers.

The question is fundamentally one that can be put to any follower of a political party and how it is answered or discussed is where the merit lies. As we've seen, some will dive in with aggression and that tells you much about them, others may deny or justify but the logical would tend to discuss.

For me I deplore the use of extremist groups to try and achieve ones aims I feel strongly that if a cause is sufficiently just then it has no need to parlay with extremist, minority groups. I don't see why UKIP is talking to these far right groups let alone working with them.
Yes but we covered that earlier, none of the EU groups are free from controversy, the only way it becomes an issue is if you are being selective, all the parties are in groupings that contain what could be viewed as "extremist" depending on your stance, following the logic of this thread I could (by association) be both a "racist"and a "paedo" based on my political inclinations at any given time.
These slurs are demeaning to everyone both those considering UKIP as a possible option for our vote at the next opportunity and those using them
Its pointless doing it, it has bee done for ages on these threads and is wholly counterproductive imho.

As I pointed out above we have no way of knowing whether something equally nightmarish is going on now at the heart of govt.

Some of those who MUST have known, show up in the EU referendum debates, I sincerely trust the Next time a Liberal Grandee mouths off about the EU they get asked "what did you know about Smith" and "why did you not reveal it to the public"
I agree. I'm not interested in the slurs or those who are weirdly over defensive.

However, UKIP have a view on immigration which is actually at odds with some of the essentially neo nazi groups with which they are holding court.

If you look at UKIP they do not have domestic affiliations with extremely violent right wing groups yet these other parties do.

It's all well and good some people saying that Labour in the past condoned paedophilia but it is fair to say that no labour supporter would openly support this. In this thread there are people openly supporting some of UKIP's members extreme views and who become rather verbally violent when questioned and try to st down discussion.

In short, UKIP raises vital issues which are important to all Britons and should be inlet discussed but I cannot see any valid reason or purpose in UKIP siding with overseas extremist groups and also not dealing with some of their extreme members.

Well 24 hours later and I'd have expected at least a couple of replies regarding the reasons for all the hate thrown at ukip/supporters/farage, but I guess it was too much to expect, it must be predjudice.

Maybe a passing mod could rename the thread to Breadvans Ukip hate thread or suchlike?

A bit much even for here?

Just like the recent televised debating tactics - shows how weak the established parties really are.... only served to shoot themselves in the foot and increase UKIP's / NF's popularity which I doubt was the object of the exercise ....keep up the good work gents.

If you are seriously putting that forward as an argument (I am not sure that you are, as I don't think that you are really that dim) then it's back to the crayons, I'm afraid. UKIP chooses to ally with Lega Nord and assorted other righty-hatey groups from across the EU. Let us assume that, despite the evidence to the contrary, UKIP is not a righty-hatey group. It still chooses to ally itself with groups that are. Bad judgment, at the least.

If someone is mad enough to join the LibDems, they do not thereby choose to ally themselves with a kiddy fiddler. If someone is complicit in covering up kiddly fiddling, they deserve to be condemned, but there is no guilt by association for the non complicit LibDem. Similarly, if someone is a doctor, a lawyer, a plumber, an IT consultant, or whatever, and a member of the same profession is found to be committing crime or professional misconduct, there is no association between the guilty person and the innocent one just by virtue of them both doing the same job. If you 'kippers really can't see this then crayon may be a bit too advanced for you, and we may have to break the glass and deploy the emergency finger paints.
Oh gawd, what a patronising last sentence.
Boring, condescending, superior than thou, attitude. rolleyes

Brings to mind my being in front of the beak in Woodstock, Oxfordshire, some moons back, a place riddled with this old 'superior than thou' thinking. I'd been done for contravening a double white line on my way to work one morn, and the bds at Oxford Highways had the night prior extended the doubles by just a few yards, unbeknown to me. A motorcycle cop sat hidden at this new juncture while I'd overtaken a car/caravan knowing I could make my way past in time (I was in something nimble and quick) - I travelled this way daily for years. The new overnight extended line length meant I clipped the doubles by a whisker. A couple of miles on from nowhere the motorbike cop caught me (at Wolvercote roundabout) and handed me my notice despite my pleading. This area fell under Woodstock... oh st! I thought f it, I'm fighting this.

I turned up at the magistrates court, with his highandmightyness the Duke of Marlborough one of the beaks, sat in between some other caricatures who looked like they were born in the middle ages. Oh st again!

My turn came.
The 'superior to thou' soon started.
'You are unemployed?'
'I believe my summons stated that I was on my way to my employment?'
The old hag on the bench assumed (wrongly) I might have been dismissed...
'You are not at work today?'.
'No, I'm here!' (you dozy bint)
Soon ended after that.
They couldn't have this. Bloody upstart questioning the superior than thou beings. Court dismiss (or whatever they do and leave to discuss the punishment).
Court rise.
Straight to the point. 'Fined £25'
'How do you wish to pay?'

I thought quickly and with a smirk, I had the buggers.
'One pound a week please?'
Christ, the indignation!
'Do you have any outgoings to warrant this?'

Oh boy, I was in my element now. So I listed off everything I could think off, from mortgage, fuel the lot!

'Granted.' 'Next!'

And I had the audacity to request a receipt be posted to me every time I sent my pound - and they did!

So, a little of the patronising please, and be a bit more constructive... like a Kipper!

Surely the pertinent question (in the spirit of this thread) should be 'do the Libdems have policies that may appeal to child abusers?'
Indeed.

Do they?
And by the same token, which are the racist policies of Ukip ?

At least two people who happen to be lawyers have posted on this thread so far as I know, but neither of them has called anyone else howwid. You may perhaps be misremembering the sarcastic question "did the howwid man on the Internet say howwid things about your Idol and upset you?", to which the answer, judging by the foot stamping, frothy outrage and bitter purple tears above, is yes.

What, that some lefties are eliminating all doubt as to their innate idiocy?

Far be it for me to deny them the platform or opportunity to do so and long may it continue, but I would still like answers to the question I've posed twice now without result: What is it they so hate about farage/ukip?
Specifically, whats the guy done to them to make them represent themselves so badly on a public forum in such a manner?

Id think the thread title is still misleading, it should "anti immigration stunt goes awry", ukip isnt anti immigrant. wink

Surely if the not-so-mild content in these lefty bashing threads (no links given but you could provide some at any time) was so bad you would have taken your own advice and reported the offending content to the mods.
