woolybanana Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Norman has always been a closet UKIP supporter. This thread is an underhand way for him to see if he can't recruit some of us to the party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woolybanana Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Bit barren, that,Betty, I thought. I am sure Norman could have done better. Come on Normie, out of your reverie and get composing.

YCCMB Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Well, each to his own, but the Twwitter feed has had me sniggering for ages. Norman's probably still busy unearthing financial irregularities in the UMP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racerbear02 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Well done for posting that Betty :)We just need another couple of the UKIP grandees (!) to open their mouths before engaging what passes for their brains, to sink them and their bigoted and biased views without trace.

Théière Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 So where would those MP's go? off to other parties where they may keep their bigoted and biased views for another time. Don't forget they are not new to politics they just migrated to UKIP with the hope of getting somewhere quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racerbear02 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I would sincerely hope that by the time they wanted to move on, their stupidity would be well documented and no one wouuld have them, OK I know that is a dream, but one has to have dreams :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickP Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Interesting, there's lots of UKIP bashing going on, which personally I don't have a problem with as all politicians deserve being bashed, but no one is talking about the religious zealots who are the chief propagandists in this issue, I see a Spanish cardinal joined the "gay" discussion, but no mention on here, also no mention of the "hands on" Liberal Peer.

Racerbear02 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Actually Nick, I was trying to avoid the religious side of the problem to avoid causing offence to those narrow minded cretinous bigots [:)]As an openly gay man living with his partner of some 18 years I certainly have views on them as you might imagine [:D]I have no truck with any sort of bigotry, religious, ethnic or any other, I live my life my way and do not proselytize, I would like to be accorded the same respect from others, shame that it does not happen [:(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YCCMB Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I'm actually wondering just who will be left to vote for UKIP pretty soon, as they gradually alienate so many sectors of society.And, if you would like me to add some balance to the discussion, the only bit I can think of is that, at this rate, they will help Boris in his alleged quest to become leader of the Tories, because compared to the average UKIP candidate, he's beginning to look quite normal...[:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's a bigger problem than the UKIP idiot. In my opinion, there are a lot more cretinous religious bigots and liars than there are political muppets. So although I sincerely believe you have the right to respect etc. that you deserve in life, I have to ask why you cherry pick your target, I'm sorry but it does seem to me that like a lot of others you're jumping on a bandwagon.

Either way these politicians are already in all parties with their wacko ideals or voices to discredit another party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
