Very happy with UKIP success.

Posted by JossAmbrose 11 years, 6 months ago to Politics

Looks like UKIP are becoming a force to be reckoned with in British politics.

Found this video earlier, thought it was brilliant & VERY enlightening on the state of Europe. The parallels I draw between EU rulings & Wesley Mouch's bunglings are really quite disturbing - (from six minutes into the vid). Check it out, Farage is brilliant.

The Guardian is a Left newspaper in England but this is quite a good article & explains UKIP's success... http://www.guardian.co.uk/politics/2013/...

Enjoy. I did.

Great video. Especially the part about...I am odd. I actually had a job. I ran a business. I employed people.

I'm glad to see that there are people in Brittan talking abut the unbridled, open door immigration. They win by force of numbers and take over a country without firing a shot.

  The guy's charismatic, likeable & to the best of my knowledge, honest. The fact that he's had real working life experience should earn him serious brownie points with the masses. I just hope he can't be bought by others with a 'higher agenda'.
  
  It seems like we Brits have no rights whatsoever. Immigrants can come here & claim benefits, get free this that & the other, while my sister who currently lives/works in South Korea couldn't get ANY government support if she returned home broke. Our country is a perfect model for altruism (but it's more like an apology for being a once great nation) & the people (the intelligent ones) have had enough.
  
  Typically, anyone who supports UKIP gets the race card pulled on them - not that anyone who values freedom cares any more.

    U.S. & U.K. are interchangeable this way. The U.S. & the U.K. are 2 late great states. Very sad.

      It is sad & soul destroying.
      
      The latest news I've heard is UKIP are looking at the possibility of forming a coalition with the Tories on the condition that David Cameron is kicked out. Sounds promising.

"Mr. Cameron, when you come back from this Brussels summit, why don't you accept my challenge & let's have a proper, full debate on Britain, on whether it's worth staying a member of this union or not. What our tax payers are saying is "enough is enough." No longer do we wish to pay money to Hungarian companies involved in projects that improve the lifestyle & living standards of dogs. And our patience has completely snapped at such cultural absurdities as the four hundred thousand euros given to the Flying Gorillas Dance Troup; & using their own language of rhythm music & gibberish (well they'd fit in well here wouldn't they) - give performances such as the 'brilliant' smelly foot dance, with an acoustic score that includes some spectacular belching. No I'm not making it up!" - [Nigel Farage 2012]

      I've been pretty flat out with work for the past two weeks - even weekends. Work booked up for next week, things are picking up.
      
      Recorded three new songs over the past week, including a protest song against Socialism. It'll be interesting to see how that goes down with the public.
      
      We (Meander Lane) are currently #5 in local charts so we're gaining interest. Album release imminent.

        OH... that's your band name? Meander Lane? Um...sometimes that's what the gulch should be called. :) I like it! Where are some songs for us to listen to?!! And congrats all around :) (That was me attempting British speak.)

        Sigh... I listened to "America" first (for obvious reasons)... I might have an issue with it. "Before we all get shot" ?? Please discuss this with me, Joss. :)

        I'll have to dig the lyrics out (I didn't write them). Don't worry, it's not an anti gun song. Glenn (who does the majority of the lyric writing) & I have very similar political views.
        
        The song's about government control, slavery mentality, induced confusion & panic. Things we all love to hate.
        
        We planned to make a music video for America, which would make the message clearer but we lacked time & funds to do so.

        it's true, Joss (still waiting for the patent explain) LetsSrug, me and others are (I hope) affectionately referred to as "the meanderers"

        Sometimes people complain about us "meandering" in our conversations. We do it for fun, but that gets lost on some. :)
