UKIP are a new party how about giving them a chance. UKIP are having to adapt quickly. Most of us know the 2010 manifesto was rubbish, so it was nothing new, but at least Farage admits that.
Yes but it's the fact that he hadn't even read it that speaks volumes to me anyway. I think he is a shallow populist and this is evidence of that. Look at the stuff Clegg gets thrown at him because of the reversal on tuition fees. What is good for the goose should be good for the gander! I don't think most UKIP supporters think beyond immigration and Europe and on both these topics UKIP peddle myths and half truths. Very unpleasant and very dangerous if only for the effect they have on other parties. I suspect we are on the way out of the EU which rightly or wrongly I think will be a disaster and is a decision that will be taken by a population who know precious little about it. Direct democracy is mob rule by another name. The only hope is that in the referendum people will rise to the occasion like the Scots did. I'm not optimistic!
