How many non UK members of the EU Parliament can you name?
I'm not quite sure what bearing that would have on how people know anything about Nigel Farage, but here goes, forgive any spelling mistakes, I'm only a thick UKIP voter (or will be, in May) so these tricky foreigners and their complicated names are a bit much for me.David Borelli, Peter Mach, Laura Agea, Laura Ferrera (quite tasty IIRC), Marco Valli, Marco Zani, those are EFD members I know, as I've taken a reasonable interest in the group of late
There is Marine Le Pen and Sophie Montel from the French National Front of course.
So not that many sad to say, but as I mentioned, I'm not sure what bearing that has on anything, and Nigel Farage is the President of his group and a far more well known figure than those I mentioned, he's always giving interviews and his speeches in the parliament are well documented.

That's better than I can do. Also, I expect, better than most of the 32,000 outside the UK who took part in the survey on whether they trusted Mr Farage.David Borelli, Peter Mach, Laura Agea, Laura Ferrera (quite tasty IIRC), Marco Valli, Marco Zani, those are EFD members I know, as I've taken a reasonable interest in the group of late

So why does UKIP bother trying to cook up 100 reasons, when there are only two: leave EU; and control immigration. Both policies easy to implement wih no complications, honest!
For an intelligent person, your doing a really good impression of a simpleton.I'm intrigued to see how you would correct his 'grammar' in that sentence.

You are clearly trying to say that using "your" in place of "you're" is not a grammatical mistake. It could be an autocorrect error, but that defence has not been offered. It is therefore most likely to be ignorance of the correct way to write the abbeviated version of "you are". In much the same way as "would of" is a grammatical error", so is this.

So who should we vote for?http://www.nationaldebtclock.co.uk/

Lets be clear the Tories could have done more. Up rating benefits in line with inflation in 2011 was a mistake. Ring fencing the NHS was a mistake. Increasing foreign aid is a mistake.
However, most government spending is set many years in advance so substantially cutting the deficit is difficult and takes time.
Growing the economy and reducing unemployment all help and the Tories can claim success on that.

that's got to be actionable surely?
Even if it is, what is the point? They've apologized and removed the slur from the slide, move on I say. I believe UKIP will continue to gain mainstream support - yes, it'll take time, that cannot be denied, but as the support for the party grows this will surely become less common and those who say such things will have to live up to the cold hard facts, UKIP are a party that are gathering support and represent the views of a larger and larger part of the British electorate.
After all they polled 3.1% in 2010, current estimates vary from 14 to 19%, obviously those figures aren't perfect due to the small sample group, but even if they "only" polled 15% in May that is still a significant achievement, but obviously turning that into seats isn't quite so easy, as we all know.
