I can't argue with that. Indeed, we (I) don've live in a particularly multi cultural part of the country.

It's taking me a while to COTTON on to quite how absurd you're arguments are, it's not in the FABRIC of our society to go overboard on St Georges day and in these times where councils are under financial pressure it's important that they cut their CLOTH according and don't go spending on...

St Georges day isn't frowned upon by anyone, it's just not considered important. It seems that some can't grasp that nationality is something that many of us just roll with, it's kind of fun when it comes to sport and a bit of gentle banter with your work colleagues, but not something to get too...

Brilliant. Love it.

Can't argue with that, I'd only ask that the start point would be to view foreigners as equals.....

I can conceive that a lot of people consider immigration to be 'a problem', but I also think they are guided by a predominantly right wing press and are wrong. I take it you don't like my idea of an island utopia for the UKIPs?

Yes, I read it - The fact that they have fielded candidates from ethnic minorities explicitly to try and counter accusations of racism in no way masks the fact that this is a party who wish to discriminate against people based upon their ethnicity.

That's the political equivalent of "I can't be racist, I've got a mate who's a black" right?

Black people are 5 times more likely to be in prison than white - Therefore, it we consider Romanians white, they should be welcomed and we send the blacks home right?? See that's the problem with discriminating against people based upon their nationality, ethnicity or anything else that they...

I am completely unclear of the point you're trying to make - But your second sentence is factually incorrect, I don't see 68% anywhere, but 67% of those polled THOUGHT that immigration had been a bad thing over the last 10 years. I do like the point in the poll about net migration though, and...

Firstly, that's not ironic, but you are missing the point. What people WANT is to have the chance to better themselves, what we're force fed by the mainstream and right wing media is that immigration is to blame for, well, everything. Therefore people draw the conclusion that, as per the poll...

In fairness, I'd be pretty upset if an oversized Frenchman wreaked havoc on my rear.

I don't think that you're so stupid not to see it's a little more complicated than that. That are a lot of people struggling in Britain and looking for answers, UKIP are handing them foreigners on a plate. Shut down the borders and they'll be loads of jobs to go round. And best of all, no fuzzy...

Wouldn't argue with much of that - The question is though, what are those genuine concerns based on? Are UKIP responding to those concerns, or creating them? As an aside, personally I don't believe in referendum. On complex matters such as membership of the EU, it's not the politicians I don't...

I'll admit it - I'm scared. I fear this party not getting exposed for what it is and turning political debate in to a battle of nationality & ethnicity and that's never going to end well.

Firstly, I don't think the thread is about Farage. Secondly, I think it's perfectly fair that people from most parts of the political spectrum highlight the fact that this is dangerous party that for whatever reason are riding a wave of populism. This is a party that clearly has a racist theme...
