        I wonder if the BBC will feature this

        Dave, Nick, George and Danny better take heed.

        If they don’t Nigel will be making great advances at the next GE

          ‘I wonder if the BBC will feature this?’
          Usually in such cases, Newsnight suddenly gets all interested in Bolivian Thigh Slapping in an ‘arts’ focus, or sends its ‘Anger and Protests’ editor Paul Mason to… [ahem]… ‘report’ on folk getting angry and protesting the ‘correct’ way about the ‘correct’ issues.
          Meanwhile, the next leader and deckchair re-arranger of this monopoly media (the one Ed is OK with) Titanic is being chosen for us.
          So to answer your question, I’m guessing….hahahahahahahahahahaha…. not likely.

          Nigel – A genius who speaks without spin, who sees it as it is, yet is surrounded by a sea of fools.

          • Start Thinking says:

            Nigel needs to be careful otherwise he will end up like Kelly. STOP taking helicopters and planes you fool. The intelligence agencies Know how to drop them out of the Sky. Keep on the ground and be careful driving around. Car Crashes are the most acceptable way for assasination. Be Careful Nigel as the world we live in finds difficulty in having the TRUTH shined on it.

      Even better he seems to be gaining support in the EU parliament. They used to ignore him but not any more. He is 100% correct in what he told them. What really irks them is that he shows them and the EU flag no respect.. Unlike Dave who posed infront of the blue flag with Fuhrer Merkel.

          The gap toothed goofy floppy haired Dutch twat with the NHS glasses on lounging around like a pissed up tramp on a park bench is a cun’t of the highest order. Seen him many times shouting down an Euroscepticism. He’s a clear example of holding a seat far too long on the EU gravy train, his self-righteous know it all arrogance says it all. When the shit hits the fan and IF things get out of control he’ll be one of the first swinging from a lamp post.

      Can they stop with all this bloody nonsense and just announce they want a United States of Europe? I can’t deal with all this pretentious farting around and market manipulation everytime a finance summit comes up.

      Have they actually decided on an end-goal yet? Cause otherwise it just seems like they’re enforcing debt and usery on member states. the logical conclusion would be either nation periphery states will cease to exist or the banks want an EU to make slavery easier.

    While I am very much pro Europe, I must say that I do enjoy his speeches, and he does make some good points. Pity his only solution is to run away as oposed to working for the common good. Mind you the solutions to the EUs problems are blindingly simple, if our politicians had the vision.

    I had to laugh when Farage pointed out the Italians had to help bail out the Spanish by lending money to them at 3% and they have to borrow at 7%.

    When will the BBC and our politiicans stop thinking they can save the Euro? It’s fucked? How many times would one of these arseholes stick their fingers in a fire and not expecting the same result?

    Of course who are the Spanish actually paying back? Why the German banks of course.

    I hope us Liberals never gain any sort of power or influence over county council level, ever again. Its been very traumatising. Almost as if Polly Toynbee had been made PM and was then forced to see that her idiotic ideas and convictions would lead to chaos and ruin within a week.

    A terrible experience. Like her, we would much prefer to talk sanctimonious, preaching, incoherent, contradictory twaddle without the inconvenience of anyone scrutinising our gobspouts.

        Education has been in steady decline since Shirley Williams (spit) did for the direct grant back in 75.

        If Gove had any courage, he’d back the reintroduction of grammar schools, and bring back a version of the direct grant to allow bright kids from poorer families access to the best of the private schools.

        Most of what is taught for A-levels these days is barely at the level of the O-levels I took in 79 – no wonder we are suffering from a generation of unemployable idiots.

          Just get rid of subsidising education and make parents pay for their own children’s education. The state’s role merely to make sure parents ARE educating their children.

    Last hour or so watched the demise of the 3rd reich and concentration camps being liberated absolutely apalling scenes.
    Nigel Farage is from a different era,but nevertheless he is quite in order to take these unelected by anyone ars-hol-s to task.
    Grosse Frau Merkelie is a typical example of arrogance in that she is looking at dominance over Europe us included.
    What does she think we shed thousands of lives in this country for? well let me tell you Merkelie,it was for our aim of being a FREE COUNTRY able to run ourselves.
    Farage wants to get back to doing just that,and to all British people what the hell is wrong with that?.
    But he has wavy Davy and Cleggithon to contend with,but also on his side more and more of the British public are tuning in to him.
    As Nige has been saying for years it will be the investors/banksters who will break the Euro/Commisar led troughers,and it is happening right now.

Add to that the fact, that without exception, all our leaders are complicit in our demise, and we can see that It isn’t looking rosy for anybody who has at least an ounce of pride in Great Britain.

      People lost trust with Camoron from the beginning why do you think he didn’t get a major victory over the Brown lunatic, he was used by some voters just to get rid of Brown with everybody hoping Camoron would do less damage to the country than Brown and the Liebour nutters, I think it’s touch and go at the moment who’s doing/done the most damage to the country, I like Farage but if he keeps allowing people from other parties who appear to be/have changed views/opportunists to be members then his party will just be another party who’s only difference is wanting to get out of the EU

        The Long Haired Commandant, snoring beside me as I type, was brought up by an Irish mother who spits venom when she hears the name Lady Thatcher. Yet regardless of her Republican mother, she got off her arse and voted Conservative, just to get rid of Brown. She is likely to vote Labour next time because in her words; Cameron is a nice guy but Tories just don’t get it.

        I’m likely to vote UKIP next time because I know Socialism is a crock of shite, I know that Conservatism is the only way of keeping my country sane, but Cameron is Labour lite.

    not a machine says:

    I keep wondering what theme music will be used the new Volksbank , Beethoven , Kraftwerk , Europe (the final countdown) or perhaps EngleBirt Humpadinks (please release me let me go) . Perhaps the EUs new £30mn womb room will metamorphasise into a large map of Europe with a wheel of fortune in the centre , heads of state invited for a Blair grand bargain spin .
    Not very often you hear an MEP use the words couldnt organise a piss up in brewery in BNPs euro message (wonder if that counts as convivial in Erskin&May)
    It does seem odd in celebrating 60yrs of our sovereign , whilst for 30 of those various short term policiticians have allowed the EU to take us up the garden path to this sweating gelignite , alignment . Of course in many ways I expect the eurozone countries , have little option , the debate in there respective countries has always hinged on the cash improvements and infrastructure of modernisation , even communists are considered intellectual giants in all things EU . The signals havent been good , the turn back moments , gently cuddled like a child who has left a favourite soft toy on the bus and been soothed on the promise a new one will be better. From a modern perspective quite a few people will not get , the concerns of parliament and sovereigntry as they have become accoustomed , to the sort one size ,warm fit politics where much bigger has no problems and many generalities .
    The EU perhaps I as a eurosceptic would want , cuts no ice in Brussels , of course peace , trade and tourism are everyday events for many people who have not lived with the Images of DDR or soviet blocs , where some countries were oppresive stasi run mysteries , to many people not of these UK shores it perhaps looks very different . In some ways each country has its own post WW2 perspectives on love or hate of the EU . But that co op sort of EU has been slipping from principal , in a great Tsuanmi of credit , which by some sort of evil genius sequence of events , now requires that the big credits can only be handled by a very big banking and financial shift , ironically to fund for the overspend on entertainment and hospitality phase .
    The farce of the ecnomics is driver for many people , but in these other countries , the argument is about repayments and not really the sovereign nation threat . The PM has made his case and has hinted that solving the eurozone would save the EU , and getting on with the exits and orderly defaults or restructurings , that solution may well have worked , but we shall never know , instead we have this more mean certainity of forced finance , without there being much certainity in its ecnomic theory . In my view which ever solution was choosen , these debts would have to come down to 40% of GDP to cause the right sort of growth , the differentials if keeping the euro would need compensating , which even on the back of fag packet calculations , mean growth being suffiecnt to service the new arrangements never mind the debts , which as yet no information has materialised ,as in any grand Blair deal , no more debts isnt on and somthing like 5-8% of germanys productive growth required to ensure , it works without debts , even if it were possible to complete the full eurozone idea and german underwritten big bank issueing the new bonds for debts. With monumental changes to the lives of French German and Italian people , it could be underwritten , but then you have to ask , why has no such confidence securing document been outlined , prepared and put before the unkowing paticipants of the Euro ? If its so much the certain future , why be relying on mediocre soundbites and soothing spin ?
    I mean they could do a really crap job and leave with things deteriorating , precisely the sort of questions that you need to be answered so you dont run out of confidence and bon amiee . The questions have not been worth such respect for some time , we were told to butt out like a strange eccentric relative .
    I am perhaps still waiting for that ecnomic genius that is Ed Balls , view on how to sort the euro out , mmmm tricky for Ed , does he proffer the wealth of the UK to resolve it , or want to ensure that those who racked up the bill re pay it especially his euro socialist chums, how does si Hughes think it will work out ….. you know with figures and such like ….which help you determine wether its an eternal omni dogs dinner or fine beef .

    I am rather surprised we can celebrate the birth 100yrs ago of one of the greatest political minds of the 20th century , in the 60s he forsaw what a communion currency would mean , but then some of his other commons exchanges have such meaning , never mind the Midland Hotel infamous speech , the first paragraphs of which are a enough to secure democratic principals in any degree in politics .

    NN still has that ability to do somthing you had never even thought about , the unloved aspects of governments underbellys that never seem to go away , tonight was childrens social care . Hard to imagine isnt it , that after years of welfare handouts , that children either leave or are taken away from parents , who cannot look after them , just as it did when Street urchin had all the shock of newspaper reports . The parents of these children must have been inducted in the Blair era , although the other supporting rampant cultural signals must be causal , not that they seem like dimishing for more practical understandings of home and civil morality . When you reach the rittalin , xbox and inane celebrity parameters of the human condition as the norm , you cant admit the mistake .

    Hat tip EUkip vs Ukip

    http://ukip-vs-eukip.com/

    When will UKIP stop showboating, squabbling, posturing and basing the defence of their catastrophic failure in UK domestic politics on ad hominem attacks on its supporters who dare to criticise their utter incompetence, total lack of transparency, contempt for democracy and the clear signs of self serving greed and mediocracy amongst its leadership clique and their claque.

    In almost 20 years UKIP has NEVER produced an unarguably sound briefing paper on any subject, has devised and published no Exit & Survival Strategy see CLICK HERE, has very little record of good publicity of any gravitas but much honest bad publicity!

    UKIP have not even EVER held a sound training program and has failed utterly to inform the British public as to how or why we would in fact be Better Off Out of the EU.

    Let us also note that UKIP having failed catastrophically in the local elections wuith a mere 9 seats out of 4,987 has not only proven their irrelevance in British politics but have done nothing whatsoever of note beyond seek scapegoats for their collective incompetence and attack all who try to show them for the charlatans they are in the hope of creating a clean up of the shower in leadership to give the party some hope of a future of some sort of relevance.

    It may well be that UKIP is too ill informed to address the problems head on and campaign to inform the British people and for better media coverage at a time when Spain has effectively gone bust as no one would lend them the money to continue their clearly incompetent governance that sees them with 25% unemployment and a youth unemployment of almost 50% declared – they have absolutely no hope of repayment of loans and so no rational organisation would lend them money.

    In steps the least rational financial institute in the world – The EU and in a desperate attempt to fudge the validity of their failed EUro currency they are GIVING Spain a £100 Billion bailout to keep them stumbling forward for a while – thus having failed to solve the Portuguese problem The Irish problem, the Italian problem, the Greek problem they now show they can not solve the Spanish problem.

    Expect an upward flurry amongst the professional gamblers of the stock exchanges and money markets but when they realise this is just another handout of public money with no solution or long term gain the gamblers will realise the EUro is as busted as it ever was and without solution and them watch the crash!

    Where is UKIP in stepping forward with ideas and solutions as they are paid to do – they like any fool can clamour at the failure but they were elected to WORK towards solutions and they have done NOTHING of any value.

“Porky Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls sweet-talked guests at a fund-raising dinner by saying if he wasn’t a politician, he would be a chef. That’s not surprising, since he was accused of cooking the Treasury books when he was Gordon Brown’s boot boy.”
