I thought Farage did incredibly well with a horrible agenda led interview that is typical of the metrosexual elite in London who cant see any problems from their leafy suburban ivory towers. :spin:

[Livia]

I think this kind of stuff makes Farage look like he's being unfairly picked on. It gains him more support than it loses him, sadly.

[Black Dagger]

I wish he'd just disappear already.

[Crimson Dynamo]

He is only a dj on LBC so you wont see him very much

Oh what a surprise that the Daily Mail commenters are Pro-UKIP.. this revelation is shocking.

Yes but the mail seem to be against him yet the readers do not agree, there seems to be a disconnect there.

LOl at Nigel having a German wife and bilingual kids. That rather sucks the wind out of a few arguments

That is why he chose her, she puts a shift in.

I did have to laugh when an interviewer asked him about his German wife, the fact she's his secretary, and did he feel she was taking a job away from a British worker?

[joeysteele]

I really fail to grasp why he should feel uncomfortable travelling on tube or train or bus for that matter with people talking in a foreign language.

For me in this modern age, it seems a really odd thing to feel uncomfortable with.I really don't get that at all.

I also don't think he has ever really answered that point or for that matter rationally explained why he feels that way either.

[Aduk]

For the first time, I thought Nigel Farage was handsomely beaten in an interview.James O'Brien left him feeling very uncomfortable by the end. Noticeably, Farage's own media handler Patrick O'Flynn (Daily Express) detected trouble and tried to end the broadcast.

[Kizzy]

It was so amazing... his gast was well and truly flabbered :joker:

:joker: Does he want to join in or something? How very bizarre you get on the tube, grab a seat and read your book Nige, it doesn't bother me what language people are speaking in, some of those speaking in a different language will be tourists at any rate :umm2:

Exactly Cherie, I cannot see his point at all as to the issue he seems to have with it all.

[Mystic Mock]

If anyone read UKIP's manifesto then they would rather wanna vote Lib Dems over them it was that bad.

Farage like any leader though is very good at making himself look good but do remember he must agree with some of their policies to be in that party in the first place so anyone that attacks that disgraceful party is fine by me.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Exactly Cherie, I cannot see his point at all as to the issue he seems to have with it all.

He was in a train carriage in the UK and the whole carriage was speaking different languages he says he felt a bit uncomfortable and its his right to do so, I reckon I would too.

if you would not (and i seriously doubt its happened to anyone on here) good for you but just because you "think" you would not does not somehow magically make you morally superior

[Me. I Am Salman]

I wanna throw up on his face

I would never say I was morally superior nor did I infer or say that I was but I would say I do respect other people from different cultures and Nations,and if they are together and want to talk in their own language that is fine by me.
Just as I would talk to those with me in English in any foreign Country were I visiting another country.
I see not a single problem with that at all.

When I have been to London too, I have been on the tube and never heard any english being spoken, I have actually enjoyed hearing the different languages and accents too.

Of course it is his right to say he feels uncomfortable but he is supposed to be the leader of a political party in the UK aspiring to get elected to parliament and even to Govt.
If he feels uncomfortable with this and enough to say so too, then that to me at any rate, demonstrates some intolerance of others from him and certainly doesn't endear him or his attitude on such an issue to myself.

I actually think Mockinator sums it all up pretty well really.Since a lot of intolerance from those within UKIP just about falls in line with being uncomfortable with people from other Nations and cultures speaking in their own language and living their lives their way.

Would you expect everyone on the Paris Metro to speak French?

[GiRTh]

He has to answer these questions. He's playing with the big boys now. Hopefully they will grill him like this over and over again till the public see what a bluffer he actually is.

Nigel Farage attacked over Romanians 'slur'.

Ed Milliband said the comments about Romanian immigrants were a "racial slur", while Nick Clegg said the comments had no place in modern Britain. David Cameron added the comments were "pretty unpleasant".

[Livia]

He has a right to voice his opinion, he has freedom of speech. This country had freedom of speech way before the EU. You don't have to like it, but his right is clear.

[Tom4784]

I'm all for shining a light on the UKIP party, the best way to remove radical parties is to put them in the spotlight and watch them fall to pieces under the glare of the media and the public.

Give them enough rope and parties like UKIP will always end up hanging themselves.

[Aduk]

The Sun newspaper on Saturday also criticised Mr Farage, saying his comments were "racism, pure and simple".

[Crimson Dynamo]

I heard a clip on the radio today and some telegraph twerp going on about how it was racist. farage said he would be uncomfortable if a group of Romanian men moved in next door to him (and by Romanian men he does not mean a collection of Priests he means yopung men, non english speakers who are here looking for menial very low paid work.

I doubt there is a homeowning parent in the UK who would not feel the same. The interviewer on LBC then said whet if it were a group of german children eh eh eh?

(he was trying to make a point here as farage's children also speak german)

but the comparison was so ludicrous that it made no sense yet that tit on lbc seemed to think he had farage over a barrel.

The whole interview was a set up and had no merit

[Kizzy]

Double standards, he was calling for people to be arrested due to the fact protesters were decrying his supporters as fascists, and yet when he shoots his mouth off about a specific section of society he is exercising free speech?.... :joker:

I thought they were all here for the benefits. If there were here to work and kept themselves to themselves and didn't turn into the neighbours from hell throwing parties every night and having a dogs disgrace for a front garden I can't see the issue really.

but that is not what he said

if someone had said to him "If there were here to work and kept themselves to themselves and didn't turn into the neighbours from hell throwing parties every night and having a dogs disgrace for a front garden" then he may have said oh well fine

[Kizzy]

So it was not Nigel and this is what was said

"Ms Atkinson said the party had contacted Sussex Police’s chief constable and called for any protesters who “call our supporters fascists, hurl other abuse or any physical assault” to be arrested.

She said: “I have no problem with free speech but talk of fascism and Nazism to the third-biggest mainstream party in Britain is disgraceful.

“We are asking police to act under the Public Order Act. If we are having pensioners turning up and being called racist Nazi sluts, little old ladies who themselves or their parents probably fought in the war – that’s a hate crime, it’s inciting the public to violence.”

seems fair comment

[Cherie]

but that is not what he said

if someone had said to him "If there were here to work and kept themselves to themselves and didn't turn into the neighbours from hell throwing parties every night and having a dogs disgrace for a front garden" then he may have said oh well fine

What was the question that was put to him then? I assumed it was what you had written above!

Agree, This LBC presenter is clever with words, he does this sort of thing day in day out. So it is no surprise he has tried to make Mr Farage look uncomfortable.

Problem is though this guy is the equivalent of a well trained establishment poodle told to "go after" Mr Farage and make him appear contradictory or hypocritical at all costs.

He was not interested in the substance of the conversation he was having with Mr Farage, intent only on tripping him up and trying to make him look small. no wonder Mr Farage's agent was having a fit trying to extract Mr Farage from this well planned ambush.

Wow......the Political elite will stop at nothing to bring down Mr Farage and UKIP.

How worried really are they ?

[thesheriff443]

the man has a place in the political arena, can handle him self under pressure, if you look how boris pays the bumbling fool, and can say stupid things and have affairs that go un noticed.

we are giving millions of pounds to Europe so they can tell us what to do.

[Crimson Dynamo]

Instead of all the other parties and supporters falling over themselves to condemn UKip in a "oh look at me and how I am not like that which i condemn" so obvious way

It would rather nice if they actually talked about the problems that immigration with no control has caused and the problems we face by being in the EU and what they intend to do about it?

[Crimson Dynamo]

Today's attempt to smear by Paul Dacre and the Tories is an unfounded 17 year old allegation

Its pathetic

Expect more of the same as there is a battle on at the moment for the hearts and minds of the discerning voting public.

If you cannot destroy UKIP's arguments then you go after the Party leaders and try and destroy them.

The political elites (TPTB) are seriously troubled by UKIP and the democratic challenge it represents. They are taking UKIP seriously and realise they have a problem, something that could rock their comfortable status quo.

As a result they will stop at nothing to discredit them by fair means or foul.

sorry, what now?

[joeysteele]

Tying to look at it from all sides as to Nigel Farage,I watched the 'newsnight' interview with him tonight and he made more sense and was more believable in that.

I am little the wiser as to his thinking and terminology he uses especially as to Romanians in particular but he did better in that interview tonight.

[Kizzy]

sorry, what now?

What do you need explaining?
