    erm....OK. You'll still be calling him a bigot when he is cleared by the Police.

    No, he isn't.
    Lincolnshire police said a detective inspector was looking into the comments before deciding if there was a "case to answer".

    A spokeswoman for Lincolnshire police said this type of inquiry could be lengthy because they tended to be "complex and technical".

    To be continued....:rotfl:

    Yes, I misread your post - I tend to skim through them.

    Bye bye bigot! :wave:

    Sadly, for every one exposed and humiliated into stepping down, there will be thousands more lining up to take their place.

    UKIP attracts bigots and racists like a big steaming pile of manure attracts flies.

    It's rotten to the core.

  • BUT....the overiding point is....UKIP continue to increase in popularity at the moment. More and more are identifying with them. More and more appear to like the language used (as in the straight to the point stuff). So all your efforts are a little wasted.

    Nigel Farage Sees Support For Ukip Slip By A Third.

    http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2013/06/12/ukip-opinion-_n_3424891.html?utm_hp_ref=uk?ncid=GEP
    Support for Ukip has faded just a month after a surge of popularity for the party in last month's council elections, a new poll has suggested.

    Nigel Farage's party dropped from an 18% spike during the election period to 12% in the new poll by ICM Research for The Guardian

    Good news. :)

    Well that's a bit of a stupid, null and void point because neither I nor Graham or anyone else on here who doesn't share you views have used the childish tactic of insulting the newspaper that has been used as a reference to a story. That's something that has been done by Hamish, Moby and Prickliness himself.

    It's almost as if that came direct from the mind of a child.

    It's similar to the kind of ignorance displayed by the Labour funded UAF who can be seen being put completely in their place by Farage in this recent video;

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=LoJLi5NyQQ8#!

    For those of you who support Labour I respect your choices (shame that doesn't work both ways) but next time you speak to your Labour representative you might want to ask them why they directly fund and support organisations such as the UAF who regularly attempt to incite violence and exhibit "yobish" and "thugish" behaviour generally.
