I worked in a warehouse one summer where it was quite common occurrence....normally those fighting were closely related.
I wonder whether Nigel Farage, for all his authenticity branding, is playing political games here. The people voting for Al Murray are those that wish to mock UKIP, not those who are inclined to support them. That means every extra vote Murray gets is a vote for which the Conservatives can not compete. It's completely in UKIP's interest to play him up as a result.
Personally, I wish Al Murray had looked for his advertising elsewhere. If he genuinely opposed Nigel Farage, he would do his best to stay away from electoral politics, which are a serious matter.
"We concluded that this party name, if used on a ballot paper, was not likely to lead to electors confusing it with another registered party. At the same time we refused to register the emblem that the Free United Kingdom Party is currently using for campaigning purposes. This is clearly similar to UKIP’s registered emblem and as a result we judged that there was a clear risk of voter confusion. The party may use this emblem in other contexts but it may not use it on ballot papers. The acronym FUKP will also not appear on the ballot paper."
Sufficient for you? And if not, why not I wonder?
I think that is OK. UKIP supporters are not literate enough to read the full name of any party.
I'm a UKIP supporter on and off, and I've got a first from Oxford and a PhD from a Russell Group university. Easy claims to make on the internet, but you can have anything upwards of £500 at evens on either or both of them if you want to question them.
After your silly little sneer I think you owe it to us to disclose the exact height of literacy from which you are sneering.
Noticed on here in the last month or so,the labour supporters are showing who are the real nasty party.
Yeah, see his "Israel" effort below.
He seems to have gone a bit quiet, though, which is good.
Miliband really is in the brown stuff, if him and his handlers think using Big Gordo's election playbook, with Mrs Brown to the fore is a step forward towards Number 10.
2 things stand out in the Guardian article:
Mr & Mrs Ed apparently talk about "vested interests" at home. Do these people actually have a life?
Best part is the Guardian edit comment at the end where they say:
"This article was amended on 10 March 2015. The original references to Justine Thornton have been changed to reflect Labour’s statement that she wished to use the surname Miliband in political life."
Obviously some Labour staffer realised that an article about family life didn't come across all that well without the family name.
Remember this is a couple who only got married once he became party leader and didn't bother putting his name on his son's birth certificate. Very Odd Ed and Odd Justine.
Not really. It is quite common for lady lawyers to practice under their maiden names - I know one married to a Tory MP who does. Not having to explain that in every interview Justine does seems sensible.
My point is both that she's never before to my knowledge, ever been referred to as "Justine Miliband" in any context and that the Labour party minders who sat in on the interview and The Guardian journo who wrote it had no idea of her new name either.
As far as Israel is concerned, it will be one less Arab.
There are some Arab Israeli citizens.
Just as Muslim and Arab aren't synonymous [80% of Muslims aren't Arabs] nor are Israeli and Jew.
Not all Palestinians are Muslims either. There is quite a significant Arab Christian community. Though one fears for their future if IS is not defeated - and soon.

I went to the same school as Al Murray and we used to play Dulwich (Farage's school) at Rugby. However Farage is a few years older than Murray so it's unlikely they crossed swords on the playing fields of Eton. Incidentally whenever Al came back to the school some of the Masters had great difficulty in understanding that he was a comedian and wondered what he did for a day job.

Starting to get rather worried about these polls. The thing about Scotland is it could easily become a double whammy for Labour. Losing seats to the SNP which then convinces English voters that a Labour government would be in the pocket of the SNP. It's an absolute nightmare.

Justine's word 'decency' links in nicely with the Clarkson debacle. Just looking at a re-run of his insensitive gaffes on 4 reminds me of how truly awful he is. We have Clarkson insulting Brown's lack of sight in one eye, deliberately using two racist terms, provoking Argentinian ire through unwise number plates etc.etc. The man's a dated menace and needs to be off air as soon as possible.
I don't follow. Why does he need to be off air? if you don't like him, don't watch Top Gear.
roseree- I mean ffs. We don't live in North Korea.
I am always happy that Clarkson has such a high profile because he openly and proudly displays the oafish, ignorant stupidity of the right wing Tories. We know they ALL do it behind our backs- I mean ALL of them in their gentlemen's clubs, their soireees, their smug dinner parties. Tory policies reek of the self satisfied, conceited disdain of the plebs from tax cuts, to free schools to bedroom taxes, but very few (aka Clarkson) are prepared to articulate their vile views publicly. Boris Johnson would fit into this category, but he still harbours ambitions. In the future, if BJ's plans fail, expect to see him driving a sports car in Top Gear and slagging off plebs.
You do realise that Top Gear is, by far, the BBC's most successful and profitable programme, generating around £300m a year?
If it is kicked into touch by some bien pensant producer, somewhat akin to yourself, or surbiton, or whoever, then all your precious unwatchable-but-worthy BBC programming will suffer, indeed the entire corporation would be in trouble, as would any business which lost its most profitable asset overnight.
BBC-felchers of the Left might ponder that. They might also ponder WHY Clarkson is so popular. Right now #BringBackClarkson is trending number 6, worldwide.
seanT- I'd no rather see Clarkson expunged from our TV than you stopping to post at pbCOM. I love polemic; colourful people with colourful views. Clarkson is a showman and often funny. I don't think anything could be drearier than Harman's pink bus preaching kitchen table politics.
I actually like Boris too. Entertaining and fun. But whether I want them taking responsibility for the decisions on behalf of the poorest, disenfranchised, most vulnerable- people they obviously have nothing in common with.. that is another matter.

The whistleblowers who broke the Jimmy Savile story have seen their careers nosedive while executives protect their own status
To be fair, they could be crap employees.
The scandal is simply this: the BBC is forcing out or demoting the journalists who exposed Jimmy Savile as a voracious abuser of girls. As Meirion Jones put it to me: “There is a small group of powerful people at the BBC who think it would have been better if the truth about Savile had never come out. And they aim to punish the reporters who revealed it.”

Totally unrealistic to think true lead could be higher than 2%.
The main thing is that it is another Con lead - which provides further evidence that Con has now edged ahead.
Basil turns over in bed......another day on holiday.
Good tory lead again. Looks like they've edged ahead by a whisker.
Got to be more to it than that.
Labour's poll rating seems to have slipped to 1987's level.
And we should be thankful that it did and so removed a source of continental dynastic entanglements.
The battles which should be honoured are those of 1759.
I'd vote for you TSE.

Hunt has been quietly impressive as Health Secretary.
