EU referendum: Farage and Welby in 'racism' row.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-36471794

Nigel Farage was questioned about this during the live Referendum debate show at 9pm on ITV.

I believe the Archbishop Justin Welby has taken Farage's words out of context and, what Farage rightly says, has turned to believing headlines rather than who said it.

Immigration isn't a question about 'race' it's a question about 'cultural differences'.

Paraphrasing Farage's response during the debate: We, the UK, should be concerned about open-boarders and the flood of non-EU asylum seekers who do not share the same culture as our own, and who, in many cases, refuse to adhere to it.

There was no mention of race - it has all to do with cultural differences, and it's about time people acknowledge it.

Did you watch the debate?

Who came out on top - if anyone.

lol how is this even a debate? UKIP is massively racist, though of course they will deny it to ends of the earth.

But the evidence is very easy to find. If you look at UKIP manifesto for 2015 general election, if I remember correctly there was not one non-white face in the manifesto. Cons on other hand had a few ethnic faces throughout their doc, and Lab had some more.

Message is pretty clear: UKIP does not want a Britain with ethnic minorities.

So why are ethnic minorities voting for UKIP then if it's fundamentally racist? Are you telling me they're white folk in disguise?

Labour is having trouble with anti-semitism and I do believe the Tories had issues with racism too (and perhaps continues to). What's your point?

Translation: I'm a UKIP Supporter. Dont say mean things about them.

I'd give this one to Cameron personally. Farage had no answer for the guy who works in pharmaceuticals talking about his job relying upon being in the EU, he basically swerved his question and implied he was making it up. Like the other night vs Michael Gove the PM had reasonable answers to every question IMO. I think Farage started getting a bit rattled as well when immigration came up.

I'll add that being a remainer I'm obviously a bit biased, but I'm certainly no lover of the Tories.
