Ellco Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 UKIP recently got rid of the bloke writing their manifesto so we might have a long wait. I wonder if Farage will describe it as drivel as he did the last one. There you go again. Froth with little substance underneath. They didn't get rid of him, even if rags like the Guardian say so. He was working on policy, while at the same time being an MEP while at the same time being a PPC.. He didn't have time for all three jobs, nobody else could do his other two roles, for obvious reasons, so he left the policy one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffrey Shaw Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Strange that despite trying to hurt UKIP Bashir never cried racism. Strange that for a said to be racists party. A very good point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeMaquis Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 A very good point. Maybe he didn't have to point out the racism given it's so well known that even Nick Griffin, a known Holocaust denier, supports UKIP these days. ---------- Post added 27-01-2015 at 17:56 ---------- He didn't have time for all three jobs, nobody else could do his other two roles, for obvious reasons, so he left the policy one... So he decided to concentrate on getting elected on a non-existent manifesto. Good move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you a spokesman for either or even party to either's motivation? No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellco Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Are you happy as a Jew to belong to a party that appeals to a Holocaust-denier? You still haven't told us where your allegiance is. Its coming across as a bit cowardly. You like to attack UKIP but do not have the conviction to stand up and be counted... Its very easy to snipe from that stance, but like I said before, come on grow some, man up, who do you support? ---------- Post added 27-01-2015 at 19:27 ---------- Just winding up the small-minded.
