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
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.
