[A councillor expelled by UKIP after saying
she had a problem with "negroes" has insisted
she is not racist and did not regret making
the comments.
Rozanne Duncan, who was a prominent
member of UKIP in the Thanet South seat
where Nigel Farage is running for Parliament,
was filmed by the BBC saying she
disliked "negroid features".
The same documentary also featured
the local UKIP chairman Martyn Heale
attempting to draw a line under
his past membership of the far-right National Front,
by saying: "I was never a member of the Gestapo".
UKIP expelled Ms Duncan in December as
soon as the party hierarchy became
aware of the remarks, but the comments
that led to the decision are revealed in
full for the first time in the
fly-on-the-wall documentary Meet the Ukippers.]

I can't imagine the selection process UKIP have to choose their candidates. I suspect they'll just take anyone who wants to represent them.

That Lady says she has done nothing wrong

The fact that she thinks she's done nothing wrong shows what a poor choice she was to stand for public office.

Yes, but isn't it weird how many racists UKIP are attracting? There's almost one removed every week - and nowhere near as many from the other parties (except maybe the BNP but they would never remove them so.. )

Hardly, its just that it makes the news and dont forget Ukip is gaining so many more people and supporters unlike the others.

The greens have had a surge in support too.. but there haven't been any people removed for racism.

It's one thing having racist supporters but racist representatives?.....

Of course that would make the news for any party, but there's only dogmatic UKIP spokespeople that are bombastic enough to state their bigoted view in such a matter of fact way.

The Greens have had a surge in support from mainly young people who don't really know what we'd be letting ourselves in for in the Greens get in. Take some time to read about how they've run Brighton. They're a mess. And while some of their ideas are great, most of them are expensive and unworkable.

Jeremy Vine did a phone in about the Greens in Brighton, it was like a war zone with every call negative and callers really furious

The Greens have made themselves look ridiculous in Brighton. I'm frankly shocked that they're not laughed out the door when it comes to political programmes. I really hope they get to take part in the debates.

[Kizzy]

Yes but they're not racist are they?...

[billy123]

The Programme was pure comedy. What a Shambles.
Even the UKIP chairman for Thannet South where Farage is running is an ex National Front member.
The UKIP Councillor Janice Atkinson who referred to another Thai UKIP candidate as a Ting Tong was just disgusting. (She still works for UKIP but the Lady who she refferred to by that name has quit the party)

It would be funny if these people werent actually dangerous.

The Frank gallagher lookalike who wanted to be a councillor his interview was:
Why do you want to be a UKIP councillor? "Because i want to give something back and give it a go and because im cheeky"
Right your in!!

The scariest part of all is that this is the **** that spews out of their mouth when they know the cameras are rolling. Imagine what they are like behind closed doors.

warning the following video contains two racist loonykippers (one of which still represents them)

I agree!

I love the way some people on this Forum revel in bashing UKIP. They are not alone though as the Political establishment are in the middle of a major campaign to discredit UKIP using any and all means at their disposal.

From outright condemnation of the party saying they are the modern day equivalent of the NF, that they are right wing and fascist. to ridiculing them through satire or poking fun at their members. the plan, however it is achieved it is to try and change public opinion and make people fearful from voting for UKIP or being associated with it in any way.

People on this Forum also buy into this mood and believe the nonsense spouted and post humerous or scathing posts about how UKIP are so right wing so hateful of foreigners so fascist....

But the election is fast approaching and the establishment is worried..... very worried as their cosy little plan to sell this Country down the river has been called out for everyone to see and folks people are watching and thinking and no amount of this smear campaign bull**** will make me or millions (hopefully) of people change their view of UKIP and that change is desparately needed and UKIP offer a way to start that change.

Just a small voice of protest , a line in sand where ALL peoples that currently live here in the UK are saying no to uncontrolled immigration, No to Europe and yes to real political representation by our elected leaders to do our bidding not just follow their own agenda or the agenda of big business and other vested interests.

So yes, carry on with all the ridiculous smearing, stupid TV programmes, personal attacks on it's members, it matters not because on election day I together with vast numbers of traditional Lab/Con/Lib voters will say..... enough of the failed status quo and register one of the biggest slaps in the face to the Political gentry of this Country in generations.

And not before time.

[Livia]

I just think they have to select their candidates a little more carefully.

[Nedusa]

Yes........a little more vetting wouldn't be a bad thing but still.....

Well yeah but what do they have to choose from? There has been one incident after another so I've no idea how their supporters can seriously talk of a smear campaign. Ukip are doing a great job losing votes by themselves. The quality of the people they want to put in office a joke.

Well, I can only speak from my own experience, I've never worked for UKIP... but the selection process for councillors, MEPs and MPs is the same as a job interview. You have to choose the best, most qualified candidate from a set of applicants. Sadly, fewer and fewer people are opting to stand and so the pool they're fishing from has got smaller and smaller. It gets to the point where you have to take anyone willing to stand in that area. UKIP being a small and virtually untested party suffer more than most when it comes to attracting suitable candidates.

Nice to see you back...I expect it feels positively arctic in comparison.

In the lead up to an election when a representative of a party says ' I'm not racist but I don't like Negros' then that's not conducive to a positive reflection is it?

I've caught a cold already. LOL

Surely it cant be too hard for Ukip to find suitable candidates before they tarnish their reputation all by them selves. The quality of their candidates is seriously undermining this campaign and will possibly affect future campaigns. .
