Not like the rest at all ?

.....The logic is this: Nick Griffin is a fascist - UKIP is a political party - Nick Griffin likes UKIP - UKIP is the kind of party at least one prominent fascist likes. To which you presumably say "so what?" whereas others might say "wait a minute, why is it the kind of party at least one prominent fascist likes?"

Exactly my thoughts, too....

You can call anyone or anything, any name you like. If you believe that UKIP is a fascist party, it can only mean that you do not know what a fascist is; you don't know what the UKIP is, or both.

Of course (to return to the original thread subject BUT hey, no problem if we start discussing cheese and/or Xenakis as well!) this is further evidence that far from being different the Kippers are as capable as the rest of the sorry bunch at playing word games.

A "pledge" isn't a promise
They are "illegal combatants" and so on

I think Skrewdriver went through a similar phase, OH look all these folks come to our gigs and give Nazi salutes hummmm I wonder why?

Another UKIP candidate battling heroically against political correctness...
Kerry Smith, who has high hopes to win the seat of Basildon South in Essex, mocked gay people as “disgusting pooftahs”, referred to a woman with a Chinese name as a “chinky bird” and joked about the residents of Chigwell shooting “peasants” in a “hunt”.

Luckily he can explain everything:
"I wish to issue a wholehearted and unreserved apology to those I have offended within the party and anyone else," he said after his were made public.
"For the record I was also on a strong morphine based prescription medication for a back injury."

Kids, stay away from hard drugs unless you want to become a ranting bigot!

OOOPS

Of course one of the effects of morphine is constipation :whistle:
I once had a morphine pump in hospital, I made everyone who visited me sing the Horst Wessel song

I made everyone who visited me sing the Horst Wessel song

Did that cure your constipation?

[MrGongGong]

Did that cure your constipation?

No but it got me a private room

Do I sense that Christmas is approaching? Even the Quantum Mechanics thread is becoming mirthful.

These vile idiots are constantly having to make excuses for their racism, homophobia, xenophobia, and any other unpleasant behavioural trait!
And to prove they are idiots, they assume people will believe them!!!!!! PATHETIC!

The Mail on Sunday has this today:

The ‘rate an immigrant’ survey is part of a Ukip private survey of members aimed at helping the party draw up its policies. Sent last week by Ukip chairman Steve Crowther, it asks members to say ‘how close they feel’ to a number of groups. They include ‘Blacks, Asians, Muslims, English, Eastern Europeans and Whites’ as well as the four main political parties. Ukip activists are urged to rate each on a scale from 0 for ‘not close at all’ to 10 for ‘very close.’ - "Your responses will be invaluable in making sure we fulfil our promises over the coming years – and in government!"

Completing the survey gives respondents a chance to win cash prizes or a UKIP golf umbrella. Of course this is the Mail on Sunday rather than a proper news outlet, but it shouldn't be too hard to check whether this story is true.

I guess UKIP chairman Steve Crowther must be on some kind of racism-inducing medication as well.

I wonder if he obtained it on the NHS?

What on earth would anyone want to do with a UKIP golf umbrella (up with which we shall not putt)?...

Ah, well, there had to be an answer, did there not?! Mind you, we should be appropriately careful about saying poison tips around these parts, lest we risk an im-brolly-o...

Strange; I thought English & Eastern Europeans were mostly 'white'? (I'm not sure about Western Europeans, Scots, Irish & Welsh)
