EU Voting Purely About Migrants?

[monkey104]

I think the whole issue of immigration is problematic for UKIP, partly because of the stance they take - which is at best disingenuous. Farage repeatedly complained in the campaign that it is not fair that immigrants form the rest of the world were 'discriminated against' over EU migrants (French, Germans, Belgians etc.)

 

Because in spite of the fact that he didn't specify Muslims, as you have done above, (though his now notorious poster which featured hordes of people fleeing war torn Syria had a taint of dog whistle politics about it). Does Nigel Farage really believe it is not fair that immigrants form the rest of the world were 'discriminated against' over EU migrants?

Or is he actually saying 'we don't want any of them. But because we don't want to sound like we're little Englanders, we'll dress up our loathing of the EU as a concern about immigrants' from, say, South Asia?

 

I think that now UKIP have served their purpose, which was to lead the country towards an EU referendum, they are dead in the water. I voted out because for a long time I believed that the Eu was a white elephant,and had become to politically involved with its member countries.

I thank UKIP for the chance to votes however, not for one minute do I see Farage as any sort of leader for this country.

The question is do we need immigrants more that they need us?

 

Ask the NHS.

Where were you looking and how did you know that the people you were looking at weren't immigrants?
