'In print and online articles in April and May 2013 we said that Alex Wood, who was standing for UKIP in the May 2013 local elections in Somerset, had been photographed making a 'Nazi salute'. We also said that he had made racist comments on Facebook.
We now accept that these allegations were wrong and there is no reason to believe that Mr Wood is a racist or a Nazi. The photograph, one of a series of photographs appearing on his Facebook page, was taken out of context. Mr Wood was reaching out to stop a friend taking a photo on a mobile phone.

Oooh
Liz Kendall has accused her Labour leaderships rivals of spreading "smears" and false rumours after she was forced to deny suggestions she is in a relationship with her campaign manager.
Miss Kendall, 44, has been the subject of unfounded claims in Labour circles that she is in a relationship with John Woodcock, a fellow MP who is recently divorced.
Mr Woodcock, speaking with Miss Kendall's permission, last night took the unusual step of publicly stating that the claims were "not true, has never been true and would never be true".
He told The Telegraph that Miss Kendall is being subjected to a "systematic" smear campaign as he vowed to expose those responsible and sue them for slander.

The talking heads on CNN and Fox News have made Carly Fiorina the big winner from last night. She went on MsNBC after the debate and when Chris Matthews challenged her about her saying Hillary lied, she took him apart. She is impressive.
But she was much better on foreign policy (although I almost laughed at "my friend Bibi Netanyahu").
I though she did well against the others, but she was in a game of minnows.
I wonder what she would have done at the top table.0 -
GIven they needed £800k just to make one months payroll and a £3 million grant didn't even touch the sides (and remember the government weren't the only ones funding this, lots and lots of other people / organisations were e.g. Comic Relief), I think that tells you all you need to know about overstaffing for a charity that wasn't even nationwide.Plato said:http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/11788923/Kids-Company-boss-Camila-Batmanghelidjh-turned-HQ-into-private-Aladdins-den.html
“Three people told me they had simply been employed off the street; one worked in a bank, another was working in a legal firm.”
Significantly, the young woman disclosed that the charity had asked her to help compile an “evidence base” about its work to present to the Cabinet office as part of its bid for millions of pounds of taxpayers’ money.
The absence of robust evidence to show whether the charity’s work with children was effective was one reason why ministers previously questioned whether to renew the group’s funding.
In a scathing feedback report written earlier this year, seen by the Telegraph, she described the charity as “extremely overstaffed” and hopelessly inefficient. She also claimed that the charity effectively doctored its own statistics. She said she had been deeply disillusioned after seeing staff asking children to change what they had written on satisfaction questionnaires if they gave the “wrong answer”.
She also said: “It seemed to me that people really are scared of [Miss Batmanghelidjh] … She seemed to have favourites and if you weren’t one that was made clear.”
There are big charities out there that don't even see £3 million a year, let alone need that kind of funding just for one month.0 -
You're both at best half right, albeit for different reasons. The cycle of famine and generalised despair has in no way left India. It may not be Bengal in the 1940s but the exploitative ruling class remain and orthodox has been magnified. But, looking at post-Colonial Africa thequesption is, in its bluntest firm, is it better to be ruled wellishly by an outsider or badly by one of us. I think the answer is, in broad terms' the latter.EPG said:

In addition to the debate being the highest rated show ever on Fox News, the anchors are getting praise from across the political spectrum for their questioning.
Here's a sample from a competing network - which will host the next Republican debate next month, and the first Democratic debate in October.

In the course of his diplomatic duties as a head of government, I don't think Cameron has ever referred to Islamic extremists as friends. Corbyn does it of his own volition.JWisemann said:'Given his links with Islamic extremists, we shouldn't be too surprised if he's picked up a few holocaust deniers along the way.'
Just because Cameron is best mates with the totalitarian rulers of the world's most evil religious state, doesn't mean he is responsible for all the anti-Semitic bile and plague of Islamic extremism that comes out of Saudi Arabia,
Oh, you are talking about Corbyn.0 -
There is a separate question of economic growth and access to consumer technology, by which measure much of the developing world is now massively better off than during the colonial era. On the other hand, governance is often very poor and this can mean awful access to basic services, from power to healthcare to education. Somalia has somehow undergone a massive development in GDP per capita and with broad swathes of its population now having access to cellphones and the internet, while barely having a functional government at all.matt said:

The Mirror is a disgusting newspaper. I don't support UKIP but the smear campaign against them, which far too many of my fellow Conservatives were happy to jump on, went far too far.

I cannot even begin to imagine the horror of what it is like to have a foreign invader that rules your lands by force. 1066 was the last time for us English.
The mindset that even remotely thinks that colonialism was a good thing- was the same mindset that led us into the horrific campaigns in Iraq and so forth.

Trump sucked most of the oxygen from the debate, that was what really mattered to him, as these results show he was runner-up in terms of those who won the debate, but also runner-up in terms of those who lost the debate.

This is a classic case of the anti-UKIP nonsense I'm talking about. The individual UKIP allowed to join their grouping is not a holocaust denier and it is pure lies to pretend he is because of an offhand comment from his party leader. And, of course, the rest of the major parties all have extremist bedfellows in the EU parliament. This obvious double standard that UKIP is smeared with just turns people off politics.

I like Corbyn and think he is both a serious politician and the best of a bad bunch in the Labour leadership. If I were a Labour member then I would probably vote for him on that basis.
However, I am not a Labour member and the idea that I should be able to pretend to be a supporter, whether Tory or Trot, simply to vote in this leadership is ludicrous.
There is a view growing that the Labour Party is dying not because of Corbyn's politics, not because of the unseemly Blairite threats to destabilise him before he has even won but because a Party which is not even capable of organising a proper election is not capable of forming an opposition never mind a Government.0 -
The book on Carly is that she gives a barn burning stump speech and generates lots of buzz at her events. I can attest to that. I've seen her in person a couple of times. I've seen several of them (not Trump or Bush yet) and she is the best at getting the crowd going. I'd like to see them all but don't know if it'll happen.HYUFD said:

Cameron's government have sold and given weapons to Islamic extremists from Saudi Arabia to Libya, as well as offering fawning tributes to a dead tyrant, head of the most evil government on earth, ruler of the country responsible for 99% of global Islamic terrorism and extremism. Corbyn said a few diplomatic words in the context of peace discussions. If the Tories want to try and make this blatant hypocrisy a line of attack, I think they better examine the facts on the ground, because Corbyn isn't going to be shy of pointing such things out, should he win.JEO said:

At the moment its "very messy"! If allegations of abuse on the premises or by staff are proven, it will reach catastrophe.
But I do not think it it reflects particularly badly on the government.
From that side, Cameron et al fell victim through their own negligence.
On the other hand, it will quickly become far easier to justify their decision to end government support and thus "close" the charity.0 -

Interesting views from Michal Kaminski leader of Law and Justice who are a member of the Alliance of European Conservatives and Reformists.In the same interview he argued that, while the massacre could not be defended, Poles should not apologise for what they did until Jews apologised to them for their actions which had included "murdering Poles".
Stones and glass houses.
How depressing. Estimates of 400-700 killed AFTER the end of WW2.

From Kippers, this week, I've read on twitter and indeed one Kipper on here, I paraphrase, Pro-EU people like Heath are paedos/are only Pro-EU because they have been blackmailed into being Pro-EU cause they are paedos.JEO said:
This is a classic case of the anti-UKIP nonsense I'm talking about. The individual UKIP allowed to join their grouping is not a holocaust denier and it is pure lies to pretend he is because of an offhand comment from his party leader. And, of course, the rest of the major parties all have extremist bedfellows in the EU parliament. This obvious double standard that UKIP is smeared with just turns people off politics. We need to win people over to the Tories by building ourselves up and representing people, not by tearing down the other parties.TheScreamingEagles said:

Christ. There really are some delusional loons on here.AndyJS said:When discussing migrants, hardly any commentators seem to mention the total failure of post-colonialist governments despite being given enormous funds by the West over the last 50 years. The reason is that none of them want to admit that maybe things were better for ordinary people in those countries when they were part of colonial empires.
I cannot even begin to imagine the horror of what it is like to have a foreign invader that rules your lands by force. 1066 was the last time for us English.
The mindset that even remotely thinks that colonialism was a good thing- was the same mindset that led us into the horrific campaigns in Iraq and so forth.0 -

The post-debate polls are normally pretty accurate, I doubt there will be much change in the next few days. Fiorina lost the California Senate race and has never won elected office, she might be a VP option, but she will not be nomineeTim_B said:
The book on Carly is that she gives a barn burning stump speech and generates lots of buzz at her events. I can attest to that. I've seen her in person a couple of times. I've seen several of them (not Trump or Bush yet) and she is the best at getting the crowd going. I'd like to see them all but don't know if it'll happen.HYUFD said:
Trump sucked most of the oxygen from the debate, that was what really mattered to him, as these results show he was runner-up in terms of those who won the debate, but also runner-up in terms of those who lost the debate. If you loved Trump before the debate, you will still love him, if you hated Trump before the debate, you will still hate him.

It was possibly a little unwise of him to tweet at 3.30am that she is a bimbo.
The talking heads on CNN and Fox News have made Carly Fiorina the big winner from last night. She went on MsNBC after the debate and when Chris Matthews challenged her about her saying Hillary lied, she took him apart. She is impressive.
What happens is that it takes a couple of days for the dust to settle after these debates, with the commentators expressing their opinions and then the first non-instant post-debate polls will arrive so we will know who 'won'.
None of us have any idea who the nominee will be so it's not worth talking about.0 -
