Putting the con in conservatives.

THIS is WHY you are one of my favourite posters Arista - I rely on you for some of my news.

Poor Farage is one of the most wrongfully maligned politicians in this country, but he is honest and sincere, and - like me I suspect - is not as popular as he should be because the TRUTH he speaks is NOT the truth a lot of people want to hear.

UKIP were stuffed with seats won, by an outmoded, unfair electoral system, and both Farage personally, AND his party continue to be stuffed by propaganda, spin, and downright lies, by sinister factions within this country.

At £50 million pounds PER DAY NET deficit to the UK, our 40 year old membership of the EU is THE biggest money draining scandal in the past 50 years, AND Immmigration is a subject which DEMANDS open and honest discussion and debate, but which will not be, because it is a taboo subject and is a 'Problem Which Dare Not Speak Its Name' thanks to certain aspects of 'Political Correctness' which have been siezed upon and manipulated by the same sinister factions.

The Tories have been well and truly exposed by this revelation Arista, and Farage has - once again - been PROVED correct, but NOTHING will change as a result.

Thanks again Arista.

And who's address did they use to hide so many of these expenses? no other than Marion Little, the woman who was awarded an OBE in this year's New Year's Honours List for her work during the campaigns. Time to give back your Damehood Marion!

Its good to see this uncovered.

Stands amazed Supersonic - Legs Akimbo, Willy Nilly, Dip Yer Bread in - DEMO RED. KIZZY and KIRK IN AGREEMENT. :laugh:

DemolitionRed 08-02-2016 08:55 PM

I don't like what Farage stands for Kirk but regardless of that, I want him to be voted in or not through fair and honesty campaigning. He stuck to the rules, the Tories didn't, so in this instance I'm very much on his side.

I am not surprised at this at all and as much as I disagree with UKIP,well really the only 2 issues I disagree with them on are the EU and immigration,their big policies unfortunately.
I can almost take on board they would look at and make sure the NHS was more soundly funded and also I like a lot of their social polices as they were in the election.

What I do like from Farage he speaks what he means and from what he believes in most of the time.

As to this being uncovered, nothing will change as has been said.

MTVN 08-02-2016 09:48 PM

For clarity this involves two by-elections which were won by Ukip after Tory MPs defected (Mark Reckless in Rochester and Strood and Douglas Carswell in Clacton) and one by-election in Newark which was won by the Conservatives after the sitting Tory MP for the constituency resigned. The seat that Farage contested in the general election is not involved.

Kizzy 08-02-2016 11:10 PM

So the they wasted all that money for jack then?

arista 09-02-2016 02:05 PM

Daily Politics BBC2HD
had Ch4HD Micheal Crick , on
to speak about his findings last night.

They put he was from Ch4News up at the start
but they should have had his name and Ch4News
on him all the time.

As he was a BBC Political Reporter


He ended with more to be on tonight
7PM Ch4HD News

I would really like to see the paperwork around this claim. If it's found they have cheated the Agent could be jailed, and I don't know any Agents who are so fond of the people they represent they'd risk jail for them. If the Agent has ****ed up, it's the end of his or her career.

There are a lot of intricacies around election expenses though. For instance, if someone gives you something for the election you still have to note it down as a notional expense... I will be shocked if this is true. I would be shocked if it was Labour and it was true. If it was UKIP, I'd expect it.
