Yes they've had to knock their corners off to fit in with the mainstream... That's not to say that they don't have those principles still at their core. Look at the type of people drawn to UKIP, the 'every man is an island' middle englander, essex man and far right thug.
Everything they stand for is regressive, 'let's go back' how many times have we heard this phrase from Farage?

Liberty – People living their lives as they choose with government off their backs;

Democracy – elected representatives work for the People, not the party and promotion;

Justice – fairness, social justice, rule of our laws, upholding the People’s rights;

Prosperity – through free enterprise together with prudent and honest government.

Meaning? Privatise everything, and get rid of any regulators that might spot exploitation and bad practice.
Yes UKIP want you to live your life as you choose... unless you're gay and want to get married and have a family, then it's a no.

As did supporters of all parties, this is an excuse, Rozanne Duncan attempted the same.. It didn't wash either.

well at least when we find out all the mps who were part of the Cyril Smith (labour, liberal) paedo debacle they will all be from the 3 main parties and none from ukip

If any of the other leaders were even half decent communicators, the SNP wouldn't be given a second thought. They truly are an awful party. They bend the rules to try and fix the voting results and they only have 1 agenda, an independent Scotland. Anyone who values the union will not vote for the SNP.

In terms of uk wide party's the tories are ahead by a long way with me, but even they are mediocre at best.

Is this an attempt at a deflection from your UKIP supporters grew up in a different era statement? ... Noted.

No parties are racist, it's not in their manifesto.

I don't have a fave. There are parties where I have more beliefs of theirs than others, but I don't really have one. I'm a mixed bag really.

no my statement was a fact, that many ukip supporters are from an older generation than other parties. go look at the demographics.

That is correct but may not be so for BNP or perhaps Britain First but i have looked at neither

All parties have older supporters, is there evidence that UKIP have an inordinate amount of older supporters than any other party?

Not sure if they have a greater amount of older voters than other parties but they have the oldest voters (55 years old on average)

I doubt it Kizzy and they all do have older supporters as you rightly point out.
However I would caution that a little as to the Greens,they do seem to connect more with younger voters.

Can you cross reference them with the other main parties now please?

[Ninastar]

to say that a political party is racist or homophobic is just plain stupid. you get people with crazy opinions everywhere, that doesn't mean that they all think the same. that's one thing that annoys me about politics, the whole (THE X PART ARE ZIST!!!!!!!!!) bullcrap

But it says a lot about a party in the sense of who they'd allow to represent them.
