Well it doesn't help in their campaign to draw people alienated by 'LibLabCon'.

No more than most supporters of Labour hate England & the white working class. Also, not to mention the amount of Muslims who vote Labour which are Islamists and have anti-semetic sentiment. Dianne Abbott has said more racist comments than any UKIP member has and what party is she from again?

Who knowingly allows Muslims grooming gangs to beat white children for 12 years whilst calling others racist? That's right, Labour :smile:

I'm not sure if "most" are bigots. And there will probably be a difference between UKIP members and mere supporters.

I don't think most of them are bigoted, but you can't deny UKIP has a problem with that. While you do get it in other parties, UKIP seems to have it worse despite having fewer members, councillors and MPs than the main parties. The immigration issue does tend to attract some nasty people, even if the concerns raised by UKIP about immigration are not racial ones.

"bigot" under extreme left cultural hegemony just means "doesn't slavishly adhere to politically correct newspeak at every opportunity", so who cares really?

meh, people who are enclosed in the establishment parties seem to be bigger bigots to me, and more politically elitist towards smaller parties - it's like stockholm syndrome to me - they don't understand how limited their perceived choices are, yet they value that limitation of choice more

There is no taxation without representation. Bigots pay taxes so bigots need to be represented too. People should stop being so bigoted against bigots.

A responsible representative would want to educate bigots to examine their bigotory and try to be less bigoted.

In the same way criminals and drug addicts should be represented but you would expect your MP or councillor to try to steer criminals and addicts away from their destructive lifestyle rather than condone it or become criminals or addicts themselves.

As long as Diane Abbott holds a job in the Labour Party nobody can claim UKIP are biggots. She has said more racist stuff than anyone in the ukip party and is still one of the main faces of Labour

No, they aren't. As a member I have met quite a few kippers and none of them have come across as bigots. As for that article you linked, the guy who said that said it as a joke in a pub. Media leaves that stuff out of course, only pick the bits that suit their agenda.

Nope, a poll out today put us on 23 percent. Sorry, we're not going away that easily.

Don't worry another UKIP candidate with send out ridiculous leaflets calling for something which scapegoats vulnerable people in a obscene way.

People will then see the kind of SMUT FILTH and VILE RUBBISH which is spoken in UKIP forums.

Yes, judging an entire party based on the comments of a small number of its members is very reasonable, isn't it

Probably her racist comments against the native white people of this country.

As for bigotry, I think everyone is bigoted.

So becaue (in Arran82s opinion) Diane Abbot is a bigot that means absolutely no one from UKIP is...

I'm no expert I such matters but that seems to be the nonsensical ramblings of an idiot more than a serious argument.
