Some of the ukip members are, making dirty slurs about browns and blacks.

He's not though. He bullshits with the best of them but but simply plays to a different image and the public lap it up as they're fed up with the typical PC politician.

Honestly, the biggest lie of all is that he's honest, lol.

What annoys me is that he'll probably win Thanet which is where I'm from.

I've seen the DPP on Denmark and the FPO on Austria draw most of their support from natives on the 20-40 age group. People older than that tend to turn away from the new parties that arose after 2008. It seems likely the 20-40 native british are more likely to be represented here than the other groups, or even immigrants living in Britain. Not to mention people anonymously tend to more likely express politically incorrect views. So I don't think the results or the Brits here are unusually extreme. 

Either way the UK is screwed!! I think i'll vote Conservative just because they appear to be the lesser of the evils and I cannot just not vote...

With any luck they will screw up the 'vow' of more powers for Scotland and we will have had the referendum version 2 and escaped before then

That's not ukip as a party though, labour and conservative mp's have stolen from the general public and have gone to prison for it, so by your logic, labour and conservative are parties run by theives

All MP's have stolen from taxpayers. As I said in my first line, they are all shit. Piers Morgan put it best when he said UKIP are the best of the worst.
But for the working class, Labour support us best. Who knows maybe UKIP would be good for the hard workers of the UK, but until Nigel Farage proves he can run a country better than he can run a party then i'll happily vote for them.

What is british? Half of you have grandparents born in other EU countries, and btw your amazing industry that shipped worldwide had a high load of immigrants in factories. 

Problem in general with that quote is Romanians are not a race. I am Romanian and most ethnic Romanians are white and the only major difference between Romanians and other people is they speak Romanian.

For a little context, in Romania there is a lot of conflict between the ethic Romanians and the Romanis (gypsies). Ironically negative Romanian sterotypes such as Romanians are poor thieves who breed like rabbits and destory everything are exactly the same sterotypess used by Romanians against the Romanis.

These sterotypes exist because Romani people generally live poorer lifes and have mucher higher crime rates than ethnic Romanians and face societical discrimination. Romani culture and Romanian culture are completely different and often clash because of this, and with the majority of Romania being populated by ethnic Romanians, it's pretty obvious to see why Romanis got the short straw. There's a lot of Romanis in Romania, and also from Bulgaria too so when they go to countries like Germany, France or the UK they are just referred to as Romanians or Bulgarians.

So I'm not trying to defend UKIP but I do want to explain why I think UKIP believes this. And I do think scapegoating Romanians and Bulgarians (and Romanis for that matter of fact) is wrong, UKIP not only echoes what some British think but also what Romanians think.

Which the majority of this conflict comes from a clash of cultures. Which is generally why people do not like Romanis, although perhaps some people dislike them because they have slightly darker skin, in my experience it is the social friction between these two ethnic groups.

So is Nigel and the UKIP racist in this case? No (although to be fair, some definitions of racism include ethnic discrimination which in that case, yes UKIP is racist) but they do have prejudice and they do discriminate against Romanians and probably from the assumption that Romanians are Romanis (the similar names do not help) and Romanis have social and cultural friction with Romanians and the British.

Yeah, I know its not Racism in the strictest sense of the word.

The main point i should have made is about prejudice, which you kindly pointed out to me.

Perhaps this is a better term to use for Farage, and in my mind there should never be a leader who is prejudice against certain groups of society or nationalities.

Of course, this is a bit of a dilemma, because im sure everyone has some level of prejudice. But this should never be one of the defining reasons behind policies.

I also have no respect for the man because of the way he conducts himself in the media, as much as everyone says they like him because he is an everyman who goes down the pub, I personally dont want an everyman running the country I live in. It should be a job for someone who has a good education, and can conduct themselves in a respectful manner when dealing with foriegn and domestic policies - the UK would lose all credibility with a man like Farage in power.

Hypothetically I am also curious on how Nigel would even fare as PM or more realistically in a coalition. The man was chased out of Scotland and is virtually hated there. On top of Nigel making the UK a worldwide laughing stock, especially towards the Europeans, the man has a fair amount of enemies at home.

He calls, or at least it seems now it's "called" himself and his party libertarian, but he is about as libertarian as a Green Party who actively supports fossil fuels. He and his party probably won the European parliment for probably the same reason that the National Front won in France, people didn't care enough to vote anyways, or as a form or protest vote. UKIP as it stands right now with Farage has no chance to win any local general election as long as they maintain their current structure and policy.
