UKIP

[Neil G]

I'll defer to your better knowledge on these matters.  I just don't see anyone left to vote for them now that the loony element of the Tory party have gained the upper hand.

 

Probably not at the present time, but UKIP’s primary purpose has never been to win votes, it’s been to influence the policies of the two main parties towards the EU. It (or a successor anti-EU party) might not win many votes at the next GE, but its mere presence on the ballot paper might dissuade Labour from offering a second referendum to reverse Brexit. Labour has a lot of MPs in Leave-voting areas who are terrified of losing their seats through shipping votes to anti-EU / anti-immigration parties.

 

It’s also possible that some Tories might start to lose their bottle if things go to shit after a hard Brexit, so the threat of losing votes and seats to a hard right nationalist party with a “no pain no gain” message might keep them on the straight and narrow.

Paul Joseph Watson the infowars brain pills dude has joined UKIP and the pug owner, no comment if the Pug has joined.

 

Ukip has allowed a trio of social media activists linked to the “alt-right” to join the party.

 

The arrival of Paul Joseph Watson, Mark Meechan – better known to YouTube viewers as Count Dankula – and Carl Benjamin, who posts videos as Sargon of Akkad, will alarm some senior Ukip members already concerned at the struggling party’s direction under Gerard Batten.

 

Batten, who took control of the party in February on an initial one-year basis, has defined himself largely though anti-Islam rhetoric. He has also backed Tommy Robinson, the founder of the anti-Islam English Defence League (EDL) street movement, for contempt of court.

 

The party’s rules forbid former members of the EDL or other far-right groups from joining. A Ukip spokesman confirmed that Watson, Meechan and Benjamin had joined, saying he “took issue” with the notion they were from the far right

 

All three are vocal on social media, with large followings and often controversial views. Watson, who has 875,000 Twitter followers, is a senior editor at Infowars, the US-based website that deals partly in conspiracy theories, such as arguing tha.

 

Watson describes himself as a “classical liberal”, but mainly offers posts condemning immigration and Islam, and seeking to bait leftwingers.

 

Meechan, from North Lanarkshire, is best known for being fined £800 by a court earlier this year after he posted an online video of his girlfriend’s pug dog giving Nazi salutes, raising its paw in response to statements such as “Sieg Heil”. He has nearly 250,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel.

 

Benjamin, who took the name Sargon of Akkad from the ruler of a Mesopotamian empire in the second millennium BC, first became known for his vehement anti-feminist comments, and was then by other people against the Labour MP Jess Phillips.

 

He is now banned from Twitter, but remains on YouTube, where he has 810,000 subscribers.

 

All three had spoken via social media of their intention to join Ukip, a process seemingly sparked earlier this month when Meechan promised to do so if the pledge was retweeted 10,000 times.

 

Batten’s sympathy towards such figures is not a surprise. He has spoken alongside Meechan and Benjamin at events connected to Robinson, and was recently photographed alongside Benjamin and Watson.

 

Their membership was welcomed by Ukip’s London assembly member at the news.

 

However, some more traditional members have expressed concern at Batten’s direction for a party that won in the 2015 general election, but whose support has since plummeted under a series of short-lived leaders. less than 3% support.

 

A spokesman for the group Hope Not Hate, which monitors far-right groups among others said: “There are attempts afoot to forge an alliance between extreme figures who have made their names online, those involved in electoral politics, and those out on the streets, around an anti-Muslim and pro- ‘free speech’ agenda.

 

“In following the path he’s chosen, Batten is leading Ukip down a dangerous route, and the acceptance of figures such as Watson is further evidence of this

That Milo whatever has also joined UKIP.

[Dr Nowt]

And to think I believed Count Dankula’s hilarious public Nazi dog video routine really was the only feasible way one could irritate their girlfriend.

[Denny Crane]

Looking like someone somewhere is preparing for the next phase of UKIP. Or just someone hoping to take advantage of their profile.

[Rico1304]

That Milo whatever has also joined UKIP.

Surely he’s retired on the back of his book earnings?

[Denny Crane]

Didn't he lose his fat juicy book deal something about bumming 13 year old boys. Surprise Milo didn't join the Tories.

A few hardliners seizing control of UKIPs dessicated corpse.

[Denny Crane]

Food for thought. There is a growing anti- Muslim pro brexit free speech anti-gender equality that is quite fervent without a figurehead in the UK.

Thinking about this it makes sort-of sense. UKIP is a rudderless empty vessel with guaranteed access to mainstream broadcast outlets thanks to its historic status as a relatively major party. These men and their Nazi dogs are big online but want a mainstream platform.

[Rico1304]

Didn't he lose his fat juicy book deal something about bumming 13 year old boys. Surprise Milo didn't join the Tories.

His publishers fucked him off and cancelled the deal, he self published and tried to sue them. The book sold about 5 copies, two sets of lawyers fucked him off and he eventually represented himself making an even bigger idiot of himself than thought possible.

 

Here’s a link detailing it;

That Milo is a complete narcissist but I always thought brain pill boy Paul Joseph Watson would end up fronting something in the UK. He's way smarter than Tommy Robinson although that's probably setting the bar low and well connected he could probably find a financial backer quite easily.

 

Being associated with Infowars is good enough for the American president these days.

It's fuckin shite.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

UKIP are going all in on the street Fascist shit that's coalescing around the Football Lad's Alliance and Yaxley-Lennon's publicity stunt.

 

Here's a prediction. There will be large scale racist violence in London on 14th July and UKIP will defend the racists.

[AngryOfTuebrook]

The racist criminal Yaxley-Lennon has been appointed an advisor to UKIP on one topic he has repeatedly demonstrated himself to be incapable of understanding.

No surprise at all. Thick racist looney advising thick racist loonies on how to be a thick racist looney. 

[AngryOfTuebrook]

Farridge has criticised the appointment. 

 

Imagine being too racist for Farridge.

UKIP appoint woman who put that cat in wheelie bin as advisor on cat welfare

 

The collection of gammon faced halfwits known as the UK Independence party has appointed the internationally famous cat abuser Mary Bale as an advisor on cat welfare issues.

 

Mary will advise Gerard whathisface, this week’s UKIP leader, on issues such as where it’s okay to hide other people’s cats and how to open a recycling bin.

Under current UKIP rules Bale is perfectly eligible for membership because UKIP are shower of shits.

 

The decision was criticized by former UKIP leader Nigel Farage who said something about not being invited onto Question Time as much as he would like and that while he isn’t particularly fond of cats he thinks putting them into wheelie bins is not a solution, he’d rather just send them back to wherever they came from after Brexit.

 

Mary Bale said “I’m not really arsed about cats either way I just want to be on the telly.”
