Just so you know that anyone on that side of the Pennines who goes for the Brexit Party is actually voting for the Hitler Youth song singer. As a protest. Oh you do make me laugh! What are people on the right side of the Pennines who vote for the Brexit Party, the Herman Goering cheerleaders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckn Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 13 minutes ago, Saintslass said: Oh ckn. When will you learn that your opinion of me - a person you have never met and whose judgment of me appears to rest entirely on whether or not I agree with you - is of no consequence to me. I may not be to your taste and you may think Farage a racist - both views you are entirely at liberty to hold - but likewise I am entirely at liberty to disagree. I will remember though that apparently when we vote for a party we have to take 'the whole package' so that when you next express your wish to vote for a particular party I will be sure to point out its possible deficiencies and hold you personally responsible for the lot of them! That's disappointing as your views were of consequence to me; only by engaging with our polar opposites do we find consensus and move away from the extremists. Why do you think I bother taking time to reply to so many of your posts? By siding with the extremists like Farage, you'd probably be better voting BNP or the new Kipper leadership as at least they're honest with their opinion and ambitions. By siding with Farage, you move into the territory of irredeemable that I tend to keep for the truly broken extremists. All he cares about is power for himself, if that means getting into bed with the vile racists who have been looking for a home since the end of the mainstream BNP then that's what he's doing. I'll leave you to your postings in future and I'll lump you in with those I don't reply to any longer.

That’s sort of how it works. It seems some people think voting Brexit Party will get them "Brexit" of an extreme nature. Now, what's their view on the wider nature of such things as "immigration". Do they think the Tory "hostile environment" is not extreme enough as it's still letting in over 200k non-EU folk a year? What about us giving homes to refugees? That sort of thing...

Same here. UKIP has gone racist under it's current leadership so they are a no-no otherwise I would have voted for them. So Brexit Party it is for me, in the Euros I mean. I'm not voting for anyone in the locals, for the first time in my adult life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not included 'British jobs for British workers'. Wasn't that Gordon Brown's line at one time? Was he being racist? Just wondering. Anyway, just two of those statements strike me as racist: the immigration/repatriation one (which I think is appalling) and the housing British people before immigrants. But then I never voted BNP and never would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
