Farage.

That's how I feel Shaz, I believe a lot of people are choosing to either ignore or disbelieve the dark side of UKIP as they are so desperate to give the main parties a boot up the backside

[miasmum]

I feel the same Shaz.

Whether the media have got the knives out for the UKIP, or not

I don't think there is too much doubt about that, is there?
The Daily Mail website is running two or three anti-UKIP stories every day.

Apologists for this campaign say that UKIP are merely being held to the same scrutiny as the other parties.
No, they aren't. The papers are actively seeking mud to throw at UKIP and letting the others off.

Very simple test. Google "LibDem child sex" and see how many hits you get. Dead silence in the papers. There is mud there to be thrown at the LibDems, should the media wish to do so. Or the other main parties, should they wish to do so. But they don't.

The fact is that there is a political concensus in the UK. All the main parties are in favour of EU membership, mass immigration, no death penalty and the only God in the country being the great God of The Economy. All of them are sub-sets of big business or rich men.

Should any new party oppose that, whether it be the BNP, UKIP or the Vote Methodist party they will be patronised as being imbeciles, until they start becoming popular.
At which point they will be ruthlessly attacked - which is what is happening now.

I am one of those who will temporarily become a bigot in order to be heard: to have a voice. I will do so because my alternatives are so poor.

I could vote Labour, LibDem or Conservative, and keep the status quo, but that is not what I want to do: I want a shake up. There is no Independent candidate, so that is not an option. There will not be the option "None of the above" (NOTA) so I cannot use that. Spoiling my ballot paper is a waste of time, the votes might be counted, but they carry no weight. Blank voting, posting an empty vote, is not much better than spoiling a ballot paper. The final thing I could do is not to vote. That option is the worst of the lot because not only am I not counted it could be used by the main parties to see me as apathetic, and an apathetic electorate worries them not one jot.

[TheOstrich]

If you want to label me a racist bigot for voting UKIP, that's your privilege and right. But I won't be deflected, and will wear the badge with pride.

I could levy a few choice epithets at the LibLabCons and the gibbering media, but there's no point, because it's obvious they're all now running scared, anticipating a richly-deserved good kicking in the EU elections from a peed-off electorate.

And I've got to the stage where I really hope Wee Eck and Wullie's Gang up there win their referendum campaign, because it would shake the Westminster establishment to its foundations and the ramifications would be enormous.

Can't wait for Cameron to get summoned to Windsor Castle to give his explanation to HM why Balmoral's suddenly out of bounds ......

Given that the UKIP now has 37,000 members and is growing every week, I think that a few FB pages from radicals hardly makes a "racist" party. Ex BNP members have been banned since 2008 when they wised up to the fact that they might be used as a Trojan Horse.

Each of these unacceptable people will be found and dealt with.

You see this is the mark of a racist "party" and a few racist members. If the party is racist, it will accept and encourage racism. If it is not, then it will stamp it out.

What is being done to the UKIP today is nothing more than a media branding campaign. How do we even know that these people with these FB pages even believe what they are writing? Did they join to smear the party? Or do they truly believe what they say and are trying to use the UKIP as it has a better standing than the BNP?

As far as I'm concerned the UKIP is not racist and it will deal with these people in time. However, we have an election campaign to decide on and Any and Every dirty trick will be used to stop UKIP gaining any power.

Remember, 37,000 members, a handful of racists....

According to the news today the "CONS" are surging ahead in the polls.
Well to all those who are Libs and Labour Supporters
Vote for them at your peril, sadly the same applies to the Conservatives, and even more sadly if people are voting for any of these parties purely
"Because the have always been, Lib Labour Or Conservative supporters " they are simply adding to the problems these three parties have managed to create for this country that has gone to the dogs.
Farage is being politically crucified by all three parties who will resort to
Anything to prevent this man and his party winning. Let us hope people will see through this dirty charade
being created by the other parties "Who need to look in their own parties, getting rid of the rot and cleaning up their acts that quite frankly are a disgrace .

[Suff]

Maybe they polled 1,000 Conservative voters....

[Aggers]

I'm convinced that the main political parties are scared stiff at the level of support
that UKIP will probably get at the polling stations, and that is why they are doing all
they can to discredit UKIP. It's dirty play, and they won't get my support. I shall be
voting for UKIP.

[KateLMead]

Voices of sanity transcend through this mire, I am voting for Farage purely as a show of public strength, I doubt whether he will ever sit on the front benches, but we need this man and UKIP at this point in time to give the other liars, manipulators
Deceivers a good public humiliation for misleading England's nation to creating to the state it is in.
