I'm not a kipper and I am not talking about homophobia, i'm talking about university segregation by muslims, but if you continue like this I might even become a member of the kippers just for you.antifrank said:

Actually SeanT has a point, I got the point when muslims tried to segregate universities, ironically that is setting left wing atheists against islam.antifrank said:
You are defending a party that is likely to top the polls tomorrow and whose leader defends the right of its candidates to be anti-gay. Instead of invoking threats from 5000 miles away, I will prefer to concentrate on the bigotry that is being openly expressed here and now by silly old fools that you are condoning.SeanT said:
Are there teams of 70 something vaguely Tory Englishmen trying to push walls onto gay people because of some deeply held ideology?
No.
Is there a country, a culture, a billion strong civilisation which believes gays should be executed that way?
Yes.
And we import 100,000s of people from that latter culture, even as pathetic fools like you bleat about the former.
You are a coward.

Were UKIP to come to power, I think it is hugely unlikely they would persecute gay men and women. And, I suspect that there will be gay men and women voting UKIP tomorrow.0

To me they're both symptoms of the PC religion.Richard_Nabavi said:
Actually, I agree with that, or at least their double standards about some of the disagreeable variants of Islam which we have encouraged to take root here (and, in case tim is reading this: Yes, I accept that this mistake goes right back to Maggie's time, when the French authorities were tearing their hair out at the lack of action by Britain against some very nasty Algerian terrorist groups who were planting bombs in the Paris metro at the time).MrJones said:The political class' 1000 foot high, glowing pink neon double standard over islam is one of the things that defines the political class.
However, when it comes to double standards, UKIP take the biscuit on this. After all, if the threat is from militant Islam, why on earth are they pretending that it is about EU immigration?

What will this be like when large parts of London, or other cities, are 20-30% Muslim, or 50% Muslim. It ain't gonna be Godfrey Bloom trying to hit you with a brick.
You are an intellectual coward of the first rank, because you are smart enough to know better, but you choose to delude yourself.
All he did was show understanding of why someone said what they did, rather than hair trigger, zero tolerance nonsense which chucks the baby out with the bathwater.
Nothing worse than smug liberal bigotry. There will be things you say now that you think are reasonable but will look bigoted in another generation.

Good point - quite honestly since the Sun went behind the pay-wall, I don't think I've seen a single article on the kippers or anything else linked to them on PB - have they been anti Ukip in your opinion?
update - cheers Mr Jones, just read your reply.
I dont buy any paper, but when I go to the Cafe I read The Sun. Until May, it has read like a UKIP pamphlet, endorsing their immigration stance in articles and editorials, and portryaing EU immigration as a bad thing.
I would have been prepared to back them endorsing UKIP at the GE at 6/4.
So I got that wrong! Their volte face has been remarkable
The Sun has discovered that advocating working class populism is now encouraging the working class to vote for a working class populist party instead of the establishment party which the Murdochs support.
There's a 'Downfall' parody to be made here. Rupert would fit the bunker image well.

Of course, I agree entirely. Indeed I made exactly this point a few days ago. The entire EU immigration angle and the vilification of Romanians is a smokescreen.SeanT said:
FFS, because UKIP know that if they came out with one of their real beliefs - stop most immigration from Muslim countries - they would be instantly crucified as racist and they would die like the BNP.
Political correctness has ensured that some things are politically unsayable, even if entirely justifiable. Therefore UKIP are obliged to dress up their Stop Immigration credo in the guise of Controlling our EU Borders.
UKIP voters of course understand this perfectly.
The only people who don't, or who pretend they don't, are those who post on here pushing the risible argument that UKIP wants to reduce EU immigration in order to increase non-EU immigration.
Of course that in turn leads to an obvious objection: why are UKIP pretending to be a party which wants to take us out of the EU if their real agenda has nothing to do with whether we are in the EU or not?0 -

Dear MikeK.
What limits would UKIP apply to migration in terms of numbers? How would this affect family re-unification, students and asylum seekers?

As embarrassing a deliberate misunderstanding as those who say that because 28m Romanians or Bulgarians didnt arrive on JAn 1st UKIP were wrong somehow.
No one from UKIP is saying that they want an increase in non EU immigration. They merely point out that it is ridiculous to discriminate between someone on the grounds of where outside the UK they were born rather than what they have to offer.
It may be the case that no non EU citizens make the cut, or that only non EU citizens do.. more likely a mixture.. but you know that full well. Dont play the lefty "Im confused" schtick, it is for students, or people who havent grown up0 -
Antifrank: I share your views about Ukip and their two- faced approach to immigration. But really there are very real threats to gays here in this country from parties in power - see how gay councillors in Tower Hamlets are shouted down with homophobic abuse. See how Livingstone allied himself with people who thought gays should be killed. Farage should not be condoning those who say that it is ok to hate gay people but the biggest and nastiest threat to liberal values does not really come from the Godfrey Blooms of this world. They want to turn the clock back to the 1950's, which is bad enough. But there are plenty who want to go very much further and who are willing to use violence to get their way.antifrank said:

The problem with parties like Ukip is that they give a veneer of respectability to xenophobia and demonising of immigrants and a whole load of nastier ideas, even if they don't mean to. But even if Ukip vanished tomorrow the threats to gays and women and Jews and liberal values would still be here.

Are there? Pretty much all Muslims think that homosexuality is wrong. And a very significant proportion want sharia law which goes way beyond anything proposed by Ukip.

Antifrank(ing) is a pension term
Anti franking legislation requires that statutory indexation of an individual's [Guaranteed Minimum Pension (GMP)] is paid in addition to any amount by which the scheme benefits exceed the GMP, and is not deemed to be covered or "franked" by other scheme benefits.

Huzzah for David Cameron
The British government scuppered Madrid’s bid to host the 2020 Olympic Games in retaliation at Spain’s hard line stance over Gibraltar, a senior Liberal Democrat claimed.
Sir Graham Watson, the MEP for South West England and Gibraltar, described how David Cameron threatened his Spanish counterpart with derailing the Madrid bid last summer amid escalating diplomatic tensions over controls imposed by Spain at its border with the British Overseas Territory.
“I am told Mr Cameron actually said to the Spanish Prime Minister, ‘if you carry on with these border queues we will make sure you don’t get the Olympic Games,’” Sir Graham said during a debate televised debate in Gibraltar ahead of the EU elections.
“And I believe that is what happened,” he added.

You're probably asking the wrong question.Pulpstar said:For balance's sake does anyone have any statistics on the relative incidence of sexual abuse amongst homosexuals in general, heterosexuals in general and priests in the Catholic church ?
I mean I have my suspicions on this subject - perhaps my prejudices are incorrect ?
75% of abuse takes place within families. Hardly surprising, as that's where the kids are.
This would result in low proportions of abusers amongst homosexuals - and Catholic priests. They are already low proportions of the population anyway.
Now, consider institutions. One abuser can end up abusing an awful lot of children unless discovered and stopped. Note also a lot of institutions are sex-segregated, thus exposing children to same-sex attacks only.
But I can give one solid, verified fact. 80.9% of the victims of clerical child abuse in the USA were boys.( John Jay Report)0 -

There have been lots of predictions that the Lib Dems will lose all their seats, but these seem to be hysterical and wishful-thinking than realistic. It reminds me of 1994, when people were forecasting sweeping gains for the Lib Dems but they ended up with only 2 seats (albeit 2 more than they had ever had before) which was much more realistic and reasonable.
I expect the Lib Dems will get about 3 or 4 as a minimum, and I think it's much more likely that the Greens will be squeezed into 5th place by the Lib Dems holding firm on 13% than vice-versa.0 -

Re Lib Dems Euro vote share.looking back at Euro vote shares and comparing with ICM April polls polls since 1989 the Lib Dems have always polled less than prevailing national opinion polls.The average deficit is 5.4%.Thus taking the latest ICM which is 13% would produce a 7.6 share.Anything above this is better than average.!0
