Perhaps there is only Farage who is experienced at public speaking but there are certainly a lot of members. You cannot compare an up and coming newbie party with the slick PR of the 3 main parties. The only reason they rarely put their foot in it is because they have a PR army, voice trainers etc and constant messages telling them what to say....all funded by donations of millions of pounds! Very slick machines but they are still incompetent!

Nigel Farage is a good speaker, but there are a few others, not so charismatic, but equally good!
Anyway, UKIP is not full of professional career politicians, like all the other!

Good Luck. At least you're standing up to be counted

If I was well enough to do it Mark, I would do, I believe it is time for change :thumbup:

Yes - exactly. That is why our membership is growing by leaps and bounds while LibLabCon's is declining!

Mark, why are you so against UKIP ? And why do you think it is good for Britain to stay in Europe ?

Don't worry,I have less disdain for UKIP than for The Tories but that might be because I don't see them as a threat.

As far as the EU is concerned, well, that's down to looking at life with a completely different ideology. The reason I give my opinion on here is to give some balance to the argument.

In a different situation, such as down the pub, when I meet someone like JWhite, I don't even bother arguing with them. I just sit their listening to the rants and sort of nodding my head. They could even go away thinking I had agreed with everything that had been said.

Thank you for the post Pigs,
To me there's very little different to the main party manifesto.
I actually can't see how many of them can be impletmented, while The UK is still in the EU. I would at least expect a party to follow the rule of law in the short term.

And to say that they are different to other parties. What about this for a soundbite from Farage!
This has been a remarkable year for
UKIP. We have beaten the government
in three Westminster by-elections

True, but means nothing because they lost to other parties.

I've just seen the P.E.B. on-line, as a preview for members.
Nigel Farage has equal airtime with a whole cross-section of ordinary people from all walks of life.
"My Britain" is the theme and what these ordinary, common-sense, folk want for their country and its future.

Britain's longest-running polling series shows the Conservatives have clawed back just one point from last month to stand at 32%. That leaves them six points adrift of Labour, which slips back one to 38%. The Liberal Democrats stand still at 15%, while Ukip bounces up two to 9%.
