"Can I just fuck Chrissie Hamilton? Sure. Tell her first though" Please do, as there was a controversy over a fake story that was slurred against her, some years ago. | |||

"Send all forgeiners home, that will cut crime by 95percent" Could you please just fuck off now since your 'jokes' aren't funny? I'm assuming that you're joking since the illiteracy and ill-informed nature of your comments (including the 'stastics' you include with no veracity to back them up) surely can't be meant as anything other than a bad jest. I'm just not sure what you think you're achieving. | |||

"2. "UKIP spokesman "We don't tend to do well in London because it's cultural, educated and young". Their words. Not mine..." I saw that! David Dimbleby picked him up on it immediately." It had me laughing when woke up this morning to the results I expected. This is the first time I didn't stay up to watch the results coming in. I am sorry to have missed that though. The UKIP voters are old, uneducated and uncultured by their own admission. The party has been around for over 20 years and I was surprised at how many right of right parties were listed on my local ballot paper but hard times always lead to their rise. | |||

The party that is probably the most racist of all four main party's... quite happy to turn away a good doctor or engineer from Africa or Asia, but also happy to let hundreds of thousands of white east Europeans come and work at (or below)minimum wage....

"And this was only the local elections..... wonder how many seats they'll get when they announce the Euro election results on Sunday....hahaha go UKIP " Lots I expect. But the only people that will care are them. After that the parade will be over. Farage will probably cherry pick a seat for next year, but other than that they'll remain insignificant. | |||

If a Council has say 60 seats, councillors, then as i understand it, each year one third, ie 20 seats, come up for re-election in rotation. Then, in some years, all the council seats together are up for re-election. As happened in some this year. In my ward, there are 3 councillors from one party. (Probably always will be). Only one stood this time and was duly re-elected. Next year it'll be his colleagues turn. Isn't that how it works most places? | |||

Where there is a directly elected mayor their seat is also up for grabs. Is your council a unitary authority? If it isn't then the rules may be different. The third of the councils for election referred to is for those that have the whole council election every four years. | |||

On Thursday in Gt Yarmouth for example only 13 of 39 seats were contested so even if UKIP had won 100% of the vote they still wouldn't have controlled the council on that vote alone. Winning 10 out of the 13 was a pretty good result though | |||

"The media have blown the whole UKIP council victory out of all proportion, they won a few seat from Lab, Cons and Libs they are a very long way off having any actual power and you can guarantee that most councillors will be voted out next time around. The only thing that actually won them votes is that people wanted to punish the Libs, a number of Tory voters are swivel eyed loons who believe we are going to be over run by Romanians and Beaker has made Labour unattractive as he must be the most unelectable leader since Foot. " On the "punishment vote" I agree with you, but I think you will find that it wasn't just aimed at the Lib Dems. The best example of that is Rotherham (safe Labour country) where UKIP took 10 seats and only lost by a handful of votes in 3 or 4 others. This was an election mostly in areas where even the most optimistic UKIP supporters didn't expect much. Even Farage was quoted as saying that 100 seats would be a good result and to equal the 140 seats taken in last years county elections would be fantastic. As it turned out UKIP took 184 with a handful of results to come last time I looked. Do they have any actual power? In most places not a lot but they will keep the others on their toes if nothing else. In other areas they hold the balance of power and will certainly make their presence known. Will most of their councillors be voted out next time? Who knows? but these seats will not be contested for another 4 years and as Harold Wilson once said "a week is a long time in politics" As for the "swivel eyed loons" jibe I suppose it has to be said that UKIP does tend to attract a few but using it as a tag to label Tories who have jumped to UKIP and its supporters in general is not only unfair it is almost libellous. Outside of the Westminster bubble there are millions of people who, for various reasons, are concerned and even downright scared about mass (and it is mass) immigration. Instead of arguing the case in favour of mass immigration (personally I don't think they have one) the Westminster party's chose to insult a huge proportion of the electorate with condescending and patronising jibes like racist, and swivel eyed loons. If you are in favour of mass immigration argue your case, without insults, and I will happily take you on. | |||

" So net immigration at over 200,000 a year is a media scare story? Farage is a tax avoider? please elaborate. Full of people with "self interests" to sell off the NHS? Full? That is a very big word. Who are these people? I've never heard of them. Then again given the choice between a privatised NHS that works and a political football NHS that doesn't, wouldn't that be in everyone's interest? As someone who knew Neil and Christine many years ago I wont comment on private conversations, but don't believe everything you read. When it comes to being a "national disgrace" UKIP are Mother Teresa and all the saints when compared to the other 3 main party's. | |||

"i cant believe the amount of idiots that voted for ukip, clearly you havent seen the rest of their policies and only voted so they can sort immigration. You do realize they wanna privatize the NHS, I'm sure if you broke your arm, or your kids were ill, you'd enjoy paying for all that medical care. They wanna cut holidays and sick pay. Maternity pay to be cut. Oh and give the Rich people a tax cut " Believe me if NHS privatisation took on the German model you should be all chomping at the bit in favour of it. Mrs is going through cancer treatment at the moment and the quality of care here is a real shock to someone like me who's only real experience is the NHS. Oh and she doesn't pay a penny. "You do realize they wanna privatize the NHS, I'm sure if you broke your arm, or your kids were ill, you'd enjoy paying for all that medical care" THAT IS A DOWNRIGHT LIE. Free at the point of use is central to UKIP's policy. TELL THE TRUTH. NOT LIEBOUR LIES | |||

"The media have blown the whole UKIP council victory out of all proportion, they won a few seat from Lab, Cons and Libs they are a very long way off having any actual power and you can guarantee that most councillors will be voted out next time around. The only thing that actually won them votes is that people wanted to punish the Libs, a number of Tory voters are swivel eyed loons who believe we are going to be over run by Romanians and Beaker has made Labour unattractive as he must be the most unelectable leader since Foot. On the "punishment vote" I agree with you, but I think you will find that it wasn't just aimed at the Lib Dems. The best example of that is Rotherham (safe Labour country) where UKIP took 10 seats and only lost by a handful of votes in 3 or 4 others. This was an election mostly in areas where even the most optimistic UKIP supporters didn't expect much. Even Farage was quoted as saying that 100 seats would be a good result and to equal the 140 seats taken in last years county elections would be fantastic. As it turned out UKIP took 184 with a handful of results to come last time I looked. Do they have any actual power? In most places not a lot but they will keep the others on their toes if nothing else. In other areas they hold the balance of power and will certainly make their presence known. Will most of their councillors be voted out next time? Who knows? but these seats will not be contested for another 4 years and as Harold Wilson once said "a week is a long time in politics" As for the "swivel eyed loons" jibe I suppose it has to be said that UKIP does tend to attract a few but using it as a tag to label Tories who have jumped to UKIP and its supporters in general is not only unfair it is almost libellous.

" Mass immigration dreamt up by the media , that , I was going to say laughable , but it's far to serious to laugh at I'm from Birmingham I can tell you mass immigration is 100% true Try visiting a city such as Birmingham and staying in an inner city area . I think you may have a change of heart A lot of name calling on here , yet all the main parties take UKIP very seriously and I have not heard one person in politics call them racist over the last week or so One reason I'm sure is because they have lost so many of their own voters to UKIP Keep up with the name calling it only makes you look foolish | |||

"A lot of UKIP haters on here today. OK so here is a little exercise for you. Close your eyes..... see above for full post, too long to include it all " "Economy." Sort of true, they stabilised inflation, which made it harder for banks to make great profits from the UK citizens, so the banks took greater risks largely but not exclusively in the USA housing markets to maintain their profits and bonuses. So when that crashed it was the labour governments fault for not allowing them to make the profits from UK citizens. "Wars" Also true, both wars were wrong in my opinion, but they were almost unanimously supported across all parties in the house of commons in a free vote. so it would not have mattered who was leading the house at that time. "welfare system" I don't know where the system started to fail, but think a lot of it happened when this country switched from manufacturing to service and financial as the base of our economy. Which was not Labours doing. "NHS" Accountants have screwed the NHS, when you have to account for everything, then you end up with more paperwork than actual work. see welfare for why we have too many bean counters. "immigration" Lots of workers at minimum wage keeps the UK unskilled workers in line and pays the tax to maintain the pensioners and welfare system, they all have done the same. highly skilled workers that can benefit the country from any source are allowed in as long as they can prove they are qualified. "Harman, Balls, and Cooper" Yeah you got me there, Labour are bastards | |||

Some tories are saying "No pact with UKIP" and other tories are expressing a great deal of enthusiasm for a pact with UKIP before the general election, will have to see what develops? | |||

The leader of UKIP youth wing left the party last week, because she objected to the party's populist racism. That Cameron and Osborne are cosying up to UKIP now tells you all you need to know. The Tories (and Labour) will assimilate the less extreme of the UKIP voters (expect to see veiled racism from both main parties in the run up to the election), and UKIP will be left with the complete fruitcakes.

Where i live here in Cannock, another traditional Labour stronghold, UKIP have gained 3 council seats. Thursday was a bad night for Labour, Balls has admitted it along with other Labour backbenchers and Labour councillors. They were aiming for a 500 seat gain but they have only gained around 250, so more or less half of what they were hoping for. | |||

"When Conservatives moved from the right to the centre, that is when they lost a lot of their support and those people switched over to UKIP. If the tories want to attract those people back, only real option is for a pact with UKIP. That rather ignores the fact that the Tories gained rather a lot at the last general election! A pact with UKIP would only consolidate racist undertones attributed to them, and see a move by those in the centre back to Labour. Actually... a UKIP/Tory vote now sounds a great idea.. You seem to be forgetting a lot of Labour voters are also now voting UKIP. Working class people who feel betrayed by Labour. No one is calling UKIP racist anymore, Cameron and Osbourne were on sky news earlier saying they respect UKIP and UKIP voters. The racist smear campaign against UKIP has clearly backfired on the tories, Labour and the Lib dems. Err...if it's true, it's not a smear. UKIP are a racist party. Their voters are racists. The leader of UKIP youth wing left the party last week, because she objected to the party's populist racism. That Cameron and Osborne are cosying up to UKIP now tells you all you need to know. The Tories (and Labour) will assimilate the less extreme of the UKIP voters (expect to see veiled racism from both main parties in the run up to the election), and UKIP will be left with the complete fruitcakes. Cue party collapso, trebles all round in Whitehall." Sorry but UKIP are here to say, we are now in an era of 4 party politics, so you better get used to it. Labours Chukka Ummuna was on BBC vote 2014 programme on thursday night and he said it himself that we are now in a 4 party politics era. When a UKIP candidate steps out of line they are quickly expelled from the party. What happens when a Labour, Lib dem or Tory candidate steps out of line? I'll tell you its a quick slap on the wrist for being naughty and carry on as normal. I know which method i prefer. | |||

" ...........and you seem to be ignoring that UKIP have gained council seats, in fact 10 in rotherham which is a traditional Labour stronghold. Where i live here in Cannock, another traditional Labour stronghold, UKIP have gained 3 council seats. Thursday was a bad night for Labour, Balls has admitted it along with other Labour backbenchers and Labour councillors. They were aiming for a 500 seat gain but they have only gained around 250, so more or less half of what they were hoping for. No I'm not ignoring that at all. It means some poll now unfortunately have to depend on UKIP tomorganise their bin collections. I don't know what Labour are playing at, no idea. But I do know they'll be in the race for political power next year. UKIP won't - most probably, ever." They will if they form a pact with the Conservatives. | |||

"Well, you've got to admire the optimism of UKIP supporters." We've got the EU votes to come in yet. Where UKIPpers will be paid to not do their job, claim expenses and take on staff and then when they do vote to vote no even for the things that will help UK residents. And we pay for this privilege. That'll make it really clear that we need to the leave the EU. | |||

"Apparently last year they had 23% of the votes. This year 17%. So down 6% of the overall share in a year." That is quite true but it doesn't really work like that. For example lets imagine a couple of bye elections. The first one is in lets say Tower Hamlets and Labour romp to a comfortable victory. The second one is in say Kensington & Chelsea and Labour are soundly beaten into third place. Reading the basic numbers would tell you that the Labour vote has collapsed, but the reality is that it is two totally different constituencies with completely opposite voter profiles. The same principle applies when comparing last years local elections (county council) in areas where UKIP would be expected to do better, to this years (mostly metropolitan) where UKIP were never expected to make any kind of breakthrough. Add to that that UKIP only fielded candidates in around half of the seats contested and I think 17% was bloody fantastic. | |||

"It is going to be very interesting to see how they have done in the euro elections, I have a feeling that it could be a massive result for them. What time do we get results? " From about 10pm. The only worry is that the fake UKIP party's may have stolen quite a few votes. That is the last dirty trick that doesn't seem to have got much publicity. | |||

" One factor that many people have overlooked is that in most cases only a third of councils were up for re-election. In some councils UKIP did so well that had the full council been up for election then they would indeed be running those councils. Best time to judge is in two years time. I'm confused by this. People were voting for only part of a council? Yes. Many district councils work on the "thirds" system, whereby one third of the seats are contested every year for 3 years and then a year off. On Thursday in Gt Yarmouth for example only 13 of 39 seats were contested so even if UKIP had won 100% of the vote they still wouldn't have controlled the council on that vote alone. Winning 10 out of the 13 was a pretty good result though" @ DB9 Queen This was my post from a couple of days ago. Think you will find it explains why UKIP don't control any councils YET. | |||

The leader of UKIP youth wing left the party last week, because she objected to the party's populist racism. That Cameron and Osborne are cosying up to UKIP now tells you all you need to know. The Tories (and Labour) will assimilate the less extreme of the UKIP voters (expect to see veiled racism from both main parties in the run up to the election), and UKIP will be left with the complete fruitcakes. Cue party collapso, trebles all round in Whitehall. I disagree with you - UKIP is not a racist party, it is a fascist party and its supporters are fascists. There are many more aspects to fascism than xenophobia. Again i disagree with you to accuse their supporters of such things is again provocative and i can only assume that your comments are there to provoke a reaction. Its a pity politics cannot be discussed by adults without the need for these unfounded allegations against members of this site. Are the ukip candidates members of this site? Ukip don't discuss politics either though, just about stopping immigration and leaving the EU. Voting them in as MEP's surely just means we will have very poor representation in the European Parliament, as all they'll do is vote against everything whether it is beneficial to the UK or not, great politics that. i am neither a candidate or supporter of UKIP however i do believe that members of this site should not brand voters or supporters of UKIP as either rascists or fascists without being in the full reciept of the facts about the individuals they slander. My politics are between myself and the ballot box. No individual has been slandered. A group of beliefs and actions have been associated with a group of people, some of whom may or may not be on this site. The same happens with those who vote for the mainstream parties, or does that not count? It's a generalisation. If people take it personally as referring to them then maybe that is their issue to deal with." sorry you are in correct it not ok for people to genralise in their statements against others such as UKIP voters are rascists and UKIP supporters are fascists and are you also claiming that only those remarked against are allowed to comment against it therefore by this standard are you saying only people directly affected by racism are allowed to speak out against it. It is wrong to make sweeping statements against sections of society as it was wrong for nigel farage to say what he did against romanians the principles are the same. | |||
