It's almost cruel to post this, but young and impressionable Green voters really need to know what they are voting for! It's confused gabbling until you get to 4:10 but after that it's a veritable car crash! Thing is that every one of Natalie's interviews ends in a car crash. But, I suppose voting Green is to make you feel good, and nothing at all to do with rationally addressing real world problems. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzGyEXPDQBI

It's OK, if the Tory party don't manage to sneak a refund for C4's Ofcom fine, the EU will simply up the C4 propaganda allowance public information subsidy. (Other people's) Money well spent for both!

I suspect that MyURL.co.uk may actually own morpeth.co.uk and choppington.co.uk if not certainly several other surrounding toons. So, it would be as significant as the Chronicle advertising the Journal. Why aren't they active you say? Well.. just at the moment, no one can be ah said!

Malc has since posted the BAE video on another thread. From the horse's mouth about the 33 page strategy document: He's talking about immigration, but real elephant in Labour's room is the EU. Their calculated bet is that ordinary people don't realise the implications, the drain on our resources, and the way it severly limits any government's freedom to act in our best interests.

Do you enjoy being patronised and taken for granted by the Westminster elites pilgrim? http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/generalelection/labour-mp-austin-mitchell-even-if-we-selected-a-raving-alcoholic-sex-paedophile-we-wouldnt-lose-grimsby-10061754.html Lots of people in Rotherham would say that a Labour vote is a vote for paedophilia by proxy, and they have plenty of evidence on that score! The authors of this survey have clearly gone to a lot of trouble to ensure objectivity - well it worked for you, but you seem to have problems when it works for others. What they can't address is whether those policies are capable of being realised, and the bona fides of the people charged with that. You'll probably agree with me that in Cameron's case that's highly unlikely as he's a proven serial liar. You won't agree with me that in Labour's case it's equally unlikely, because Miliband/Balls will tank the economy in no time, and it will become "a global problem" once again. Of course they will also have the Scot Nats to blame this time around; they don't need to go there, but in their lust for power a minority Labour government certainly will. Symptoms: you should be cheering on the Kippers South of Birmingham. The reality is that Ukip is now the only national party capable of uniting the country. That country being England of course! I fear that LibLabCon has done for the union for good now. That's not to say Ukip has written Scotland off; a decade or so of "the fishy duo" will bring them to their senses, and a lot of the silly impressionable youngsters that are their main constituency will grow up.

I suspect NF would have difficulty doing too much better than 90% Kipper, because all his views don't align with party policy. But that's in the nature of a properly democratic party - something we haven't actually had for decades! I had difficulty on the marijuana question, but opted to allow for medicinal use. It's something we really need to have a debate about, and probably carry out some serious and scaled experimentation with, rather than come up with the usual dogmatic responses. If I'm 68% LD on economic issues does this mean the LD's have now settled on the sane course of leaving the EU at the earliest opportunity? I think the real issue is that LibLabCon are essentially undemocratic and there's really no prospect of them either doing - or being able to afford - what they say they will do. Look only to the last election to see the string of broken undertakings that we can expect. All three are essentially boxed in by their commitments to the EU, and mega-spending on other aggrandisements.

Ed has another silly idea - Labour Party shadow cabinet meeting:

Don't let the facts (or even an actual Country) get in the way of a good old leftie wacist wacist chant boys! So.. a guy who is not a Ukip party member was once photographed having a drink with Nigel Farage. He was recently photographed in an underground carriage in Paris in which some people were proclaiming that they were racists, and are shown pushing a black guy. There is no suggestion that this identified person was involved in the incident, and a non-English work colleague testifies that "He is not that type of person at all" But, by the pythonesqe thought processes that occupy our left wing, it can be readily determined from the chain of events that Ukip is a racist party. What a weird and wonderful fantasy world you guys live in? There's actually a Latin term for this and it's Reductio ad absurdum you've already deployed the Reductio ad Hitlerum specialisation. In fact you've probably just invented a whole new one: Reductio ad Compotor!

You're right Tony! Here's one of our high-fly-ing future Prime Minister. Why should England tremble?

Glad you raised that bit of establishment propaganda from the fully-bought-and-paid-for C4 Sym. I think C4 is in some sort of competition with the Beeb as to who can lick the establishment's boots the cleanest! Maybe their charter is coming up for renewal? We are told the program was the result of extensive research. Pity that research didn't actually reach to reading the EU treaties which stipulate that we must give two years notice of leaving, and that during that two years there must be negotiations offering us trading agreement "on favourable terms". But, the C4 propagandists want us to believe that an aerospace manufacturer (who is partly British owned anyway), is going to close a major production facility in a matter of weeks without knowing the result of those "on favourable terms" negotiations concluding two years hence. Have you the remotest idea of what lead times are in the aerospace industry, and how disastrous it would be for Airbus to get involved in raw politics like that? The facts are that UK/EU trade is overwhelmingly in the EU's favour and they'd have to treat us with the greatest of respect in trade negotiations. A move like the lefty writers at C4 hope for to suit their dumb prejudices could end up tanking the German economy, especially in its present fragile state. Yes, we are by far the biggest export market for German producers in the entire EU, and we could, if we were so inclined, turn to other markets without much transitory affect on our own economy. Of course we aren't so inclined, and neither is any sane pan-European enterprise. The only insanity is the headlong plunge toward a European superstate that the idiots at C4 clearly wish on us! So... it's utter BS, which will be viewed in future years with the same hilarity as those dire doom and disaster warnings about what would happen to the UK if we refused to join the Euro! Did you fall for those too? Any dispassionate economic analysis always comes to the inevitable conclusion - better off out! Only the huge EU propaganda machine (funded by our own money), in alliance with international capital that doesn't like paying UK taxes, puts out messages to the contrary.

In fact Ed is in total denial that the present problems are a direct result of both our EU membership, and the Blair/Brown open-door social engineering! There's even a secret 33 page document instructing Labour candidates on how to NOT to answer those awkward questions. An uncanny resemblance to Gordon Brown's Gillian Duffy moment: So, nothing has changed in five years. And nothing will change in the next five if people are fooled into the belief that being concerned about your country (and where it is headed) makes you a bigot! The true bigots are the people in Westminster who simply refuse to face up to the issues!

Everyone except the chattering classes and the business chiefs (and maybe top trade unionists) are suffering Tony. Your wonderful EU is doing a magnificent job of depressing incomes for all but the London-centric elites. The same squeeze that was applied to manual jobs is now being applied to clerical and administrative jobs - the very sort of employment that a very few decades ago was being held up as pensionable life-careers "with prospects". All that can be said is that the Country as a whole isn't doing quite as badly as the rest of the failing EU. Huge sums are pouring out of the country to international mega-corporations who pay next to no tax through cross pricing fraud, whilst neither Tory nor Labour are prepared to do anything about it. Miliband's latest tilting at windmills is to latch onto the Panorama leftie's storm-in-a-teacup about individual tax avoidance, and pretend that there are billions going uncollected - which there certainly is not! The revenue has raked in about £130M from the insider leak, and there's likely a bit more to come. All he'll do is relocate a few very mobile people, and throw countless millions at a problem which doesn't really exist in a form he represents. In short, after he's elected he won't collect a brass farthing extra; but he knows that already, and it's just the usual empty Jealousy & Envy Party pitch to people who don't understand basic economics. Here's this truth from an impeccable source. The real problem is the international crony capitalism which infiltrates Labour just as much as the Tories. It comes in slightly different flavours according to party, but it's essentially the same thing, and fully embraced, even promoted and protected, by the EU. Please stop misrepresenting Nigel Farage as a Tory. He is as opposed to Tory policies as he is to Labour. There's no logical reason for you to do this except as a cheap smear, and its unworthy of you. If you want to criticise him then quote what he actually says you disagree with. If I said Miliband was a screaming anti-British Marxist you'd not let me get away with it (yet, his father certainly was). Actually, just like Cameron I don't think Miliband has any real core beliefs, and will do or say whatever he thinks it will take to grab power. Also, when gets power, just like Cameron, he simply won't know what to do with it. The only difference between the duos is that Osborne is more economically competent than Balls, who will bankrupt us for a second time (yeah, yeah, "it was a global problem"). Farage doesn't actually want to be PM, he wants to get us out of the Fourth Reich - period! If he has to be PM he will, but he's not after power, he's after a result. Snobby, pretentious, Cameron gets up his nose a lot more than clownish Miliband does, and I fully share that one with him. Those bully boys were militant trades unionists (from the laughingly titled Hope Not Hate) as they shamelessly admit. Ukip will repatriate no one who is here legally, and even detected illegals will be given a fair hearing. It's much more about stemming the rising tide than throwing anyone out; it's the left that goes in for social engineering. The tide of immigrants over the Mediterranean is taking on frightening proportions, and a majority want to bypass the failing EU and head for the UK where they believe the streets are paved with gold. Once Bedlington's economy picks up be under no illusions that locals will be competing for jobs with immigrants, who will be more than keen to work for what they see as a small fortune. I meet African illegals in the EU daily, have even made friends with a couple. They generally speak good English, make no pretence that they want work at any price, and intend heading for the UK above all countries. Eight or so years ago it was just a tiny few here or there, today it's an army! Finally, can everyone please stop personalising what would otherwise be a great debate! I quite enjoy Symptoms "loony left" input, and I don't see that any of his remarks were aimed personally.

Just a minute, last week kippers were being accused of wanting to take the country back to the 1950's! Now it's the 1930's and Nazi Germany! Got to make your minds up here chaps! I'd like to suggest that Kippers have no intention of taking us anywhere except the present day - actually facing up to present day problems, instead of continually ducking them like the establishment parties do. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the only episode of Nazi brownshirt tactics in recent days firmly attributed to forty or so of Tony's union chummies in Rotherham? The day Ukip employs the bully-boy tactics of the left will be the day millions of decent Ukip members leave! The left may wish to sneer at traditional British values, but they are core to Ukip supporters. Suffering fools gladly is one such!

It's not exactly a reveal, it's already a user warning on the packet. Anyway, I'd trust Sammy, and do-no-evil Google, a lot further than I would big-bro Apple - particularly with my wallet!

Marketing is for people with Oxford PPEs, Axelrod, trade union barons, and Lynton Crosby. Ukip isn't only about changing other party policy, it's about rewriting the PPE course too! http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2015/02/05/tories-ukip-facebook-likes_n_6619870.html Personally, I resent that £100 FB overspend, but I will probably get around to offsetting it.

Not at the moment Maggie, but I am following this this little bit of "political manoeuvring" which will likely make a good film/play at some future date: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/ukip/11396884/Nigel-Farage-Rotherham-police-are-wilfully-obstructive.html#disqus_thread Seems like even the police have a political agenda these days - well... the South Yorkshire ones anyway. From the comments on the Torygraph's pages (the ones they are bold enough to actually permit comments on) it's hard to believe that much of the readership buys into the editorial. Maybe someone should start a Rotherham thread here, because none of the mainstream media are shedding much light on what's really going on?

I talk to local Ukip officials regularly, and make no secret of the fact. They've asked for help, and I've given freely when I've had time, and yes, it has included web site advertising. My smartphone has dozens of recent Ukip emails. Just this morning I got two personal emails from Nige to go to Thurrock and have a beer with him (and I'm almost sure he didn't send this to anyone else )! Seriously, I will dispassionately talk to any local politicos who have the basic enterprise to contact me - and even spend time helping them prepare their artwork, but I can't write the actual copy for them. If anyone is "empty chaired" here it will be entirely their choice, and not for want of my willing participation. I don't hold out much hope of a productive dialogue with the old parties, because experience says they won't engage in any public dialogue in other than strictly controlled circumstances. But, maybe social media is breaking down their phobias - I simply don't know! I'd like you to consider the fact that this site may actually be less politically biased than any of the MSM. The moderators have an entirely free hand but are advised to moderate with the lightest of touches - really just to keep things civilised and with legal limits. In distant past my own posts have been moderated, but I've learned to behave.

We've been promoting the FREE advertising to local organisations for ages. The method of getting your ad. up is fully documented. Politically the facility is neutral, and open to any party, and any candidate in any election. We've run political ads before - this is nothing new. Basically, what you are saying is that because party a, b and c don't have the enterprise to take advantage then party d should be barred. I think Mr Cameron would like your thinking. For the avoidance of doubt we are still waiting for submissions for the GE. All ads will get equal prominence in the queue. If there is any doubt about this then I'm happy to post the raw figures at intervals.

Interesting that Texans appear to have patented the gasification of coal in-place in the mid 1960's. http://www.google.com/patents/US3298434 Sad if we have to pay royalties for something our NE mining engineers would probably have come up with earlier. Was nationalisation responsible for the lack of innovation here Adam? Anyway, it's surely not fracking, and those who say it is are surely climbing of the a mindless anti-frack bandwagon. It's up to the proponents to make a reasoned case for it though; always assuming HMG regards us as intelligent enough to have some input.

http://www.v3.co.uk/v3-uk/news/2394096/first-ubuntu-phone-on-sale-next-week-as-aquaris-e45-ubuntu-edition Yes, we all know Android is Linux (and IOS a pale copy Linux), but this is the real deal. Available next week in a "flash sale". Stay tuned, we'll try to buy one for review!

Err. no, it doesn't! I'd like to hear what a selection of experts say before signing that. One thing's for sure: if it means an economic boost then any government is going to approve it with suitable safeguards. The most pragmatic thing is to exact the highest possible price for the local economy, else we'll get the downside without any upside.

Hang on and I will find some "Hovis Ad" music to accompany that post Tony. You've got the right guy to lead your spin department. Alexrod has been caught out lying in the US, so he comes over here to lie for the Labour. Any idea how much union money he's trousering for this? Professional liars like that don't come on the cheap! Fact: Tory/Ukip coalition won't happen. There are now too many left wing people like yourself in Ukip for that to ever be on the cards. It's a democratic party controlled by its members, and they won't buy any of your LibLabCon international corporate capital BS. A confidence and supply agreement to ensure stable government will likely have too high a price for cast-iron-promise Dave. But if Dave has his back nailed to the wall, well.. you never know - we''ll take his trousers as well though! One thing is for sure Salmond/Sturgeon won't be bleeding the rest of the UK dry if Ukip has any say in it at all. Anyway, do the right thing by your members and our country and sign the petition. If you feel you can't support it then your reasoning would be instructive.

http://www.voiceforengland.com/ After decades of Tory/Labour dithering Dave is trying to stitch this one up before the GE to disadvantage Labour in case of a dreadful-for-England Labour/SNP coalition. But, actually, he has only Tory interest in mind, and not that of England, as he pretends. This is vividly illustrated by the shameful LibLabCon pact to buy off Scottish voters in the referendum with English tax payer money. He's only interested in point one here, whereas all English voters should be demanding full fairness as represented by points two, three, and four. Please sign the petition. What exactly is EVEL?

All good old traditional British names then? Ah, no, that one's another thrilling chapter in the Labour Party's - you're a wacist bigot - side of the scandal. The good old British names are being kept well out of the public eye until after the GE. Don't want to give those UKIP scruffs any more ammunition in their scurrilous campaign for democratic accountability, do we children? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolphin_Square
