after reading a few questions on here, i looked into the UKIP, and i think ive seen the light at the end of the tunnel. i just wanted to encourage people to have a look, as many disgruntled voters seem to think the BNP is the answer to our prayers. Dont get me wrong on the surface bnp policies sound okish, but ive never been happy about the racism element, im not trying to preach, im just glad i looked and maybe you will be too.

just my opinion and i can see lots of your different points of view, but we all keep moaning, then we all do the same thing election after election, and vote cautiously, to try and make it count.... look where its got us, im not telling anyone who they should vote for but we should all be voting for who we truly believe in, that way we might just get the goverment we want.

the problem with UKIP is that it is a wasted vote, they wont win and so we might as well use our vote where it counts.
I personally think that the BNP will win more seats this year as a hell of a lot of people are not happy with the levels of immigration and asylum in the country. There aren`t many of us who can say we have not been in a situation where an asylum seeker has been treated better than us. My aunt cared for my gran all of her life, never moving out of the council house they shared. When my Gran died, my aunt was kicked out of the house within a month as a family of immigrants needed it.
Many people are disgruntled by the fact the Britain is no longer British and we cannot celebrate british customs.
I would urge the government now to think seriously about this otherwise we may end up with a BNP government and that would be no good for any of us, as you rightly point out, underneath it all the BNP are exremeists.

The problem with voting UKIP is that it is playing into the governments hands again like in the last election.Divide and conquer is what will allow labour to steal the day again.
UkIP has zero chance of attaining government ,but BNP probably do.Every vote that you take away from them is a benefit to labour.
If you want us out of europe,you want to stop our cities being turned into third world slums ,your sick of being taxed till the pips squeak and you dont want further intrusion into your life by the state,then the solution is obvious.
This country is dying,its no time for messing around,
We need the BNP

Do you remember what happened in I think it was the 2001 elections in France when loads of voters were so apathetic they didn't bother and the National Front almost got elected as the ruling party? Then all the French went running out to the 2nd round of the elections to have to make sure that they didn't get in, and so Jacques Chirac was re-elected even though many people in France think he's a bit of a gangster? There's a bit of a lesson there, I think, about democracy!
I'm a confused voter because I want to vote lib dem because I agree with more of their policies than New Labour's (especially the ID card thing) but I really don't want the Tories to get in as the country still hasn't ever recovered from the last time and so do I vote Labour to try and ensure this doesn't happen or do I go with what policies I agree with in principle?

I kind of think on the whole political parties have run out of new ideas and they are mostly interchangeable, i think this will lead to the growth of the BNP and other smaller political groups. as people see no difference between tories or labour but the same men in the same suits with a different name.

The small gains that UKIP have made tend to be spoiled somewhat by their inability to carry out their policies. The BNP have also shown themselves to be similarly incompetent when in power.
This is always going to be a problem with small fringe parties that define themselves largely by what they are against, rather than what they are for.

UKIP?
Oh dear. Another patient escaped the asylum. Lets have some fatcs about Europe, shall we friend?
One, we are infact European. Wether you liek it or not, they are our neighbours, and we can only progress if we work together. Britain cannot look after itself anymore, we're not an Empire, and its an increasingly globalised world.
Two, the European Union has kept peace in europe for nearly 60 years. Do you seriously want our houses to fall apart again, only to slaughter eachother?
Please people, lets consign UKIP, the BNP and all the other lunatic fringe parties to the dustbin

not confused at all, i cant actualy vote for anybody because i am a non european, and there is no such party as a non european party, the closest is ukip, but they are only anti european not non
european, they need to take the daring step of becoming non european, so we can inherrit our own nation and have it to leave to our descendants, instead of slavery under the united states of europe.

When you go to vote make a line at the bottom and put the name Lord Robbie under it, then put an x to the right hand side!

UKIP is a wasted vote because they won't win. I don't know who to vote for - they're all useless.
