The constant shouts of outrage at every little thing that's publicised about him is actually laughable.

Well said.

The issue troubling the great British public above all others is immigration. Every poll confirms this. Speaking to ordinary people in the street confirms this.

This concern does not make these people 'Racist'.

This concern is just why Nigel Farage and his UKIP party are gaining in popularity with the Great British Public.

This is a democracy.

The Majority of people in this Democracy have been increasingly concerned about unfettered imigration for years now.

The Majority of people in this Democracy have 'suffered in silence' while their elected representatives have persistently lied to them about immigration, or ignored their concerns.

Labour MP's have been 'warned' by their leaders not to talk about immigration.

The Conservatives are trotting out the same old rhetoric on immigration which they always have before doing spectacular 'U' turns on the subject, or lying to try to cover up their total impotency on dealing with the issue.

The Majority are not stupid and do not 'swallow' everything that Farage is saying, nor do they necessarily agree with all elements of his party's manifesto, but he is the only political party leader willing to talk about the very real issue of immigration, and the only political party leader with the balls to at least propose some type of real action for dealing with it.

People can scream 'Racist' or 'Homophobic' from the rooftops - it will change nothing, because they are in a Minority and in a Democracy, the Majority will have its way.

Farage may prove to be a liar or totally impotent, but for now, there is no evidence to support such a theory. With the Conservatives and Labour, there is a long history of both parties being proven liars and a wealth of evidence to confirm their political impotency.

The Majority in this Democracy may just be electing to ignore the disproportionate 'scare mongering' about Farage, and might just be seriously regarding him as the 'lesser of three evils'.

Who knows; Farage and UKIP might just prove to be the best political party in the UK for 50 years, and let's face it - they could hardly be any worse than those we have had.
