I have never cared for Nuttall, they have some great names in UKIP, Nuttall, Hookem,
I think UKIP is a hard party to lead,they have the same problems as the Lib Dems in many ways, to win seats in the South, they need to appeal to Conservative voters and further North, they then need to appeal to Labour voters.
The 2 are incompatible,you cannot have policies that relate to and attract the Southern Conservatives, which will then also pull in Labour votes elsewhere.
Equally so vice versa too.
Add to that, the fact that to start winning seats on a large scale UKIP would need to be around 30% on the voting and would also need both Labour and the Conservatives to be down on something like 24% each.
Under this incredibly ridiculous now electoral system we have in the UK.
Across the board, from the UUP,SDLP,Sinn Feinn and Alliance parties in Northern Ireland, on the mainland the SNP,Plaid Cymru,Greens, Lib Dems and Labour, UKIP have really little and even nothing at all for supporters of all those parties.
They may have some attractive policies as to the DUP and certainly for Conservative supporters.
However voting UKIP will only ensure longer terms of Conservative govt. more than likely.
They may grab the odd seat here and there but to talk of being the opposition or having any realistic chance of governing, is a pipedream, under the first past the post system of elections.
The one party that certainly will never give UKIP the PR elections that would help it get a decent breakthrough and also others,is the Conservative party.
For me, I think and hope, once the leaving of the EU begins,then UKIP will be the party irrelevant in politics and with no change to the electoral system seeming ever likely in the foreseeable future, they likely hopefully will just fizzle out.

Yeah alot of rubbish seems to get spouted about UKIP and indeed Paul Nuttall.I think he's the right man for the job.If you ever listen to him on Question Time he's often the one who makes the most sense and sometimes the ONLY one making any sense:laugh:
I did think that there was no need for UKIP after the referendum but with all these sour remainers who keep trying to throw a spanner in the works of BREXIT it's actually giving UKIP more reason to stay relevant.Infact if these remainers actually did manage to reverse BREXIT then UKIP would get massive support.So it's win win for them really.

Bigot is a funny word. Like if all racists are bigots, and all those who oppose racism are bigots for not accepting their views.. Then who isnt a bigot?
(I'm not calling UKIP racists, but I think at this point its safe to acknowledge that they got the bad rep from some of the racist/homophobic party leaders).
I just think the word is a bit of a nothing statement, especially in the context that you've used.

It doesn't, people are confused about the definition though only slightly, although you're defining it correctly.
Bigotry is intolerance of a person overall because of the views they hold. It has nothing to do with tolerance of the viewpoint itself. You can tolerate, accept and even like a person who holds one or more views that you find abhorrent and you do NT simply have to accept those views and leave it at that... you can (and in some cases, should) try your damnedest to let that person know that you find their views unacceptable and to convince them to change their views. This is not personal intolerance. So long as you are not harming nor discriminating against someone because of the views they hold in situations where those views are irrelevant, then challenging and refusing to accept someone's opinions is not bigotry.

It also has absolutely nothing to do with "being in the majority" or "feeling in the majority".
The second part is correct but, again, attacking someone's views and opinions does not constitute "personally abusing" that person.
user104658
30-11-2016, 11:56 AM
"I think you are completely wrong to think that. It is an abhorrent thing to think." - Not bigotry.
"You only believe that because you are too stupid to understand, if you were smarter you would get it, and I don't converse with stupid people." - probably bigotry.
The dismissive term "Loony Left", for example, is a lovely little self-contained example of bigotry.

So he was also not aware of a BBC article quoting him saying the same a year earlier back in 2011?
Paul Nuttall’s press officer offered her resignation over the “close personal friends” claim she is said to have written on his website in 2012. Yet that was not the only time Nuttall’s name was associated with those words. In August 2011 the BBC quoted him making the same claim – apparently taken from his press release:
https://i0.wp.com/order-order.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Screen-Shot-2017-02-15-at-09.01.33.png?resize=540%2C272&ssl=1
So twice Nuttall’s team wrote statements claiming he had “close personal friends” at Hillsborough, and one of them was published by the BBC. And Nuttall says he knew nothing about it…

I'll give you the music part.
But the general sentiment... That's the inherent flaw in wanting to wind the clock back. "Now is bad, let's go back to before it was bad". If you go back to before it was bad, bad is still coming.
The ONLY hope is always forward. Never look back. Hope that what comes next is better.

The grass is always greener kind of thinking. It rarely is. Seems much more likely there is a lot of bad to look forward to. You think the world will become a better place - I would say the opposite. Progressive, forward-thinking - they are just words, pretty empty words really. Forward to what exactly?

In general :suspect: as opposed to backward?..

I hope they get zero seats instead of the 1 in the next election so they can fade back into irrelevance.

"The grass is always greener" perfectly describes the idea that things "used to be so much better so we should go back to that". In fact it's the very origin of the phrase :shrug:

That comes down to opinion, not fact. We can learn a lot from the past. Advanced technology for example does not mean a better world. It can have the opposite effect. Where we gain in some areas we lose in others.
Young people don't understand that and never will coz you can't put an old head on young shoulders ! People have to learn that for themselves, often to their cost.

Are you saying you would like to go backwards? Is that why you support UKIP? (Thats how your post came across, correct me if I'm wrong).
I once read that there was a time during the Roman empire, that people only used to go to work for two days a year. Can we go back to those times please?

I'm not saying you have to look forward and move forward because things always improve, I'm saying you can't keep trying to move backwards because you literally CAN'T, cannot, whether it was better or not.

Yes, he seems like the perfect leader for such a loathsome party x
Seems like a vile man to me and there do now seem to be some 'honesty issues' following recent revelations concerning Hillborough and his association with a charity?! Loath UKIP and all they stand for. The BNP in posh suits that's all.
