Methinks that NIGEL SAYS NO is not a good slogan for the LEAVE EU campaign

Just back from the cinema after watching Everest. Very by-the-numbers drama but very spectacular all the same.
Like the reciprocal of 3.
Say it ain't so.
Having said that political t-shirts always look rediculous.
He's fallen out with UKIP donor Aaron Banks, and the head of Banks' campaign group tweeted something derogatory about Douglas which Carswell hasn't taken very well.
He thinks Banks will bugger up the referendum for Leave
If they can rat once, they can (re)rat again.

This tweet is from the head of comms at Arron Banks' leave.eu outfit. Seriously https://t.co/lR8c02zDaL
.@richardcalhoun it was deleted. The tweet from the head of comms for Arron Banks leave.eu outfit was so offensive, he deleted it
This could get very interesting

Ahead of a potentially fractious Labour Party conference in Brighton, the poll also reveals 24% think the new Labour leader is a threat to national security, a message that was hammered home by the Conservative Party in the aftermath of this election victory.http://m.huffpost.com/uk/entry/8195562?1443215784&ncid=tweetlnkushpmg00000067
*innocent face*
I mean, actually, really, deep-down want it?
I mean this in a similar way to how, clearly, the Labour party would quite like to get back into power. It wouldn't mind it. It'd be nice. But based on the last few months - even years - it doesn't seem to have the hunger to get back into power. Didn't Tony Blair say it was easier for him because back then his party really wanted to win?
I'm beginning to doubt UKIP's drive and determination to achieve what is allegedly their prime motivation. It's that, or they are simply suffering a short-circuit in the command and control centre. Well, there's clearly that. But if they wanted it badly enough, couldn't they pull together, work around their weaknesses and all the egomania, and actually, genuinely go for it?
1) Like most they weren't expecting a Tory majority
2) Dave wouldn't give a referendum
But we are now having a referendum and they've been caught cold, we saw it in the Indyref, the Nats weren't prepared for it in some respects (mostly on the currency question) despite spending years wanting a referendum
'Steve says leave!'
Also, they seem utterly unable to spot glaring flaws. Walking talking flaws, with fag and beer in hand, for one thing. Any serious strategic planning for political campaign would surely, at an early stage, by running polling and focus groups to identify strong approaches they could take, the demographics they need to sway, etc. They can't have done that if they're going for the Nigel Strategy. They can't even have looked at the polls that have already been done.
There must be a market for political memorabilia from tragically failed campaigns. That's right up there with George McGovern campaign buttons.
Her English was too good... When I said 'give us a ring later' she said 'us? You and who else?!' Etc
It got right on my nerves!
Could be considered bad taste but It could also be powerful and in a referendum campaign could be powerful.
But Will Young 'leave right now' seems to fit better with the new question
IIRC Lucian Fletcher (who hasn't posted on here for ages, come back, I know you're lurking sometimes!) had a theory about Sweden from his visits there. The young blondes were stunning, though if you were surrounded by them it all got a bit samey; the middle-aged and older ladies were actually rather plain. His conclusion was not that Swedes were getting better-looking from generation to generation, but rather that if you fell for one then you were "marrying a timebomb".
For example Iain Murray won't vote to replace Trident but as a Labour MP he was elected on a Labour mandate including a commitment to replace Trident.
But so far, NADA!
Of course they are going for the Nigel strategy. Of course they have done no research. Of course they are incompetent.
UKIP is not about the EU, nor immigration, nor anything except Nigel.
The express article doesn't even mention that Wills and Kate were supporting Wales. Though does mention Kate "cheered on the England team at the opening ceremony".
The entirety of wales is partying
(And prince williams fist pumps at welsh scores drew loud cheers)
Anyway, I hope a few of the sceptics were watching today - at least for Canada/Italy, if not for England/Wales. Or that they might have caught Japan/South Africa.
Have a good one.
This is Labour today
The very fact that League is not the dominant form of rugby just shows how a certain elite control the choices of people in this country. When a boring sport where the refereeing decisions are not only bizarre but often indecypherable, you know you;re being sold a pup.
Why anyone thinks the goons who could not get anyone other than Carshole elected in May are to be listened to is beyond me.
What more does one need to understand what they are and how they work?
No, I don't think we should "Leave"......
And I'm not just talking about the pose of the on the right of the picture as you look at it...
Have to say it must be a quiet time for news and debate if some teenagers wearing tshirts at a party conference is a thread header.
On topic. Putting Farage, as the front man is disastrous for out. The true believers already believe, the people he needs to attract, he repels. Until recently I was a definite in, I'm now hovering over out, but Farage is a massive obstacle to overcome, if he's for it, instinctively, I'm against it.
