Re: ukip
I think one of the problems is people confuse the BNP with UKIP , I like some of UKIPs Ideals , I am concerned about there not being a manifesto , I cannot think on one endearing thing about the BNP , some of their ideals have some sense to them , but when I see them , I think Skinheads , The English Democrats , well I have not got aclue who they are , The Greens , well I wont give my opinion , from an engineering point of view on windfarms , in case I wake a troll again , For the European Elections I fall into England ( South East ) we elect ten of the Scroungers fraudsters thieves bludgers robbers liars Nice candidate people I have just read the list , they include a Sri Lancan , a Peruvian and an Argentiniamn and that is just the Conservatives . I am having a struggle to pick ten that I want to vote for

Re: ukip
I also have no idea who represents me in Europe, i have had no literature in any form through my door, they never seem to communicate with the electorate in the form of a newsletter etc, so i have no idea what they do or say, perhaps they like to keep it that way. i have a good idea what it costs us with weekly flights, hotels, expense accounts, etc, what a bloody system!!!! . I will vote for Ukip if i ever find out who the candidate is, not because i believe in Farage, but to let the other shower know that we want it sorted out, and soon KT

Re: ukip
#42, 47,52,&55, This is the conundrum most of us have to face. Should we use our vote as a protest?
Not vote at all, and waste the opportunity...... I'm seriously considering Keith's option #55.

Re: ukip
Seems to me many do not know what day it is, Farage does, but No 10 either have forgot or do not want all to know. Shame a National Holiday today would have been nice.
