thing is dirt has been dug up on UKIP before of which i cant recall exactly but people dont tend to care
they get branded racists by the other 3 main partys and still no one particualry cares enough for it to phase them
now if dirt was to be dug up on the torys or labour it could be a job you wished you hadnt started as you may never get to the end of it
Actually there may be some serious dirt because a tory recently defected to UKIP
what a great plan put a dirty tory into UKIP then you have your dirt ready to dig up lol

Let's be honest, both tory and labour will try their best to discredit UKIP, they want to keep things the way they are, one of them in power, the other saying they are wrong, and both of them using the liberals as stupid lapdogs whenever they have the chance.
At least the thinking people from both parties are threatening against their loyalties to put forward a protest vote rather than have both parties just carry on fighting against rather than for our Countries good.

Re: should the unemployed be allowed to vote?
Just a quick thought, allowed to vote isn't in it.
Did you know the unemployed can't use their passports?
I had an interview to go to, it was a good job, doing my trade, I took the letter to the job centre hoping for expenses.
No sorry they said can't help you, you're interview is abroad.
Yes said I, but it's in the European market, I thought I'd be helped.
No, we'll help within the UK bit not abroad.
OK I replied, if you won't help, I'll find the money somewhere and go anyway.
Well if you do you'll have to sign off jobseekers, you won't be classed as available for work.
I asked various other questions and found that I wasn't allowed abroad for any reason, holidays, (I wish), or anything, without first signing off.
It had seemed a good job, I wonder who got it?

Re: should the unemployed be allowed to vote?
Oh dear, oh dear, calling UKIP "loonies", "clowns", "fruitcakes", "closet racists" and all the rest certainly backfired, didn't it?
And STILL Con/Dem/Lab politicos appear on the telly and patronise us with the same old platitudes.
Carry on, plonkers and we'll carry on punishing you at the polls!

Allow me a moment of racism if you will, 'cos I can't remember the guys name, but I had the choice of UKIP yesterday and why would white folk give their child a foreign sounding name if they are 'closet racists'?

Best ask the representatives of the major parties that question, Less. After all, it's their parties that have made consistent attempts to denigrate UKIP.
Oh hang on a minute, they don't come on here anymore, do they?
Perhaps C'mon might be persuaded to share his thoughts with us.

That's always been the case Less, if your out of the country you can't claim dole, but it does seem a nonsense when you were in Europe looking for work, its another case of Jobsworth

The usual semi-literate gobbledegook from you I see. The big news was that UKIP enjoyed a huge upsurge in support. I could put numerous links on from today's news to illustrate that fact but I'm sure most people have seen it for themselves. Your lot and the Tories had better waken up and smell the coffee!
