RE: Nigel Farage - He Roast's Colleagues - Funny, Yet Sad Videos - I wish the United States had more Politicians Like This...

He 'says' he is pro-little-man, but look at his party's policies. They are in favour of full privatisation of our national health service, ever more tax breaks for the rich and large corporations, the abolition of inheritance tax... Also, I'm not much of a tree hugger, but UKIP's manifesto pledges to pretty much scrap all these 'namby pamby green initiatives' and forge ahead with profitable fracking and giant power plants are pretty much environmental and long term economic suicide.

I could go on. Their policies are right of Tory and designed to enrich the rich, increase inequality, and enslave an ever growing working class. Just read their last election manifesto.

The EU is a wonderful thing (with flaws naturally). Tories don't like it because it limits their ability to dispense with human rights, environmental responsibility, and generally interferes with the business of handing power to corporations. UKIP is politically Tory, but deceptively packaged to appeal to the working class even while working against their interests.

But anyway, as I'm sure you could tell, I was mainly reacting in offense to the promotion of someone I greatly dislike and disagree with. Well done for keeping it civil despite my prickly tone :-)
