FANAdeLdF Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Surely the Scottish candidates in Scotland, know a bit about Scotland. He doesn't make sense. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Parliament The most recent general election to the Parliament was held on 5th May 2011. During which UKIP scored 2,508 votes in all of Scotland, or 0.13%. And no seats. Following parliamentary debates sounds like a good way of getting to know about a political system. However, the last time UKIP did win a few seats in a democratic parliamentary election, this happened : http://www.theparliament.com/latest-news/article/newsarticle/ukip-hits-back-at-claims-its-meps-are-laziest-in-parliament/#.UI1q98XhJK0 According to the data compiled by ALDE, the 13 UKIP MEPs have received up to €15.6m in salary, staffing and office costs since the 2009 Euro elections "yet consistently fail to show up for work" [..] It is alleged that Farage has missed 47 days and Nuttall 67 days since the elections, ranking them 704th and 736th for attendance out of 753 MEPs. The average UKIP MEP has allegedly missed 38 plenary days and nearly 300 roll call votes, or one third of all votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I1L2T3 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 If Labour hadn't liberalised pub opening times this would never have happened. But, his party is seven pints ahead of the LibDems in the latest polls. Drinking pays off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Charles Kennedy was still in charge he'd be having none of that. He's be a good seven brewery's ahead by now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Hague could have drunk them all under the table (in his dreams........) http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1351951/Hagues-14-pints-a-day-boast-falls-flat-in-his-home-town.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey Shaw Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 If Charles Kennedy was still in charge he'd be having none of that. He's be a good seven brewery's ahead by now. Hence the slogan about "Drink Kennedy dry"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
