Anything's worth a go, save us from the Blackshorts.

I'm slightly worried it'll have the opposite effect; no-one who's going to vote UKIP anyway is going to be swayed, and the danger is if enough non-UKIP voters go to Murray as a 'bit of a laugh' / protest vote instead of voting for whoever they'd usually go for (I seem to remember South Thanet was taken from Labour by the Conservatives in 2010, so it's by no means a foregone conclusion that the constituency will go to a right-winger) it could actually let UKIP in.

I sincerely hope not, I hate Farage with the burning wrath of Khan.

How I feel about Farage. Racist bastard.

Genuinely think some ukippers are daft enough to vote for Murray. His policies make just as much sense as anything UKIP have managed (do they even have any actual policies yet or are they all still "personal opinion"?). Plus he's got that whole pint and a grin thing they seem to like.

The locals around these parts are more likely to vote for a pub landlord.

Edit: or the owner of a pizza joint.

Yes.

Such as the people who think Farage is anything other than a dangerous bigot

Maybe if you didn't post such pathetic jibes and bait people, then I would.

You're no better than me. Your shit don't stink.

Not one of my favourite comedians.

Not particularly mine either actually, but he's very good at it, and interesting to listen to him out of character talking about how it came about.

Have I got it right that he started it as some kind of satire, and the dullards and the working class thicko's thought he was being genuine, and that is how his career took off?

I'm no UKIP supporter, but of course they have policies http://www.ukip.org/policies_for_people

I took the concept of the Pizza Joint on to Dragon's Den and not one of those ignorant, stuck up bastards got the main point that it cured the munchies at the same time as getting you mashed.  Twats.

chillidoggy

Pizza Joint has been staple fare at the Dragon's Den boozer in Margate for years, so it's no wonder they poo-poo'd your pitch.

You say that like it's a stupid question. I looked at their website round about the time they got their mp elected and couldn't find a single policy statement. Those ones are all new.

If Farage was a racist he would never have survived in the job he did.

What is highly amusing is the way communists like to portray other groups of political thought as evil, when they hold the current world record for genocide by a factor of 10. Chairman Mao leads the Genocide race due the great leap forward and the cultural revolution. Then we have old Jo Stalin, knocking German Nacional Socialist Adolf Hitler down into third place. Indeed, as the graphic shows very clearly, the ideology of Karl Marx has inspired more murder, oppression, terror and evil than any other secular ideology in human history. If somebody went around calling themselves a Nazi, then I suspect that they would be met with a great deal of social ostracism and quite possibly prosecution. Why an ideology as fundamentally twisted and evil as communism be treated as anything different to Nazisim, when the numbers show it has been a lot worse, is beyond me.
