No prizes for guessing what you think of him.
There was an interesting interview on BBC radio with him following his election, where they hit him with many of the things he is supposed to have said and political beliefs attributed to him. He answered each one candidly and even the interviewers had to admit it had " all gone rather well" and maybe he wasn't that radical after all (shock horror!). These included things like banning religious clothing covering the face (he thinks it should not be allowed where you are not allowed to wear a motorcycle helmet - banks, customs etc), death penalty for child killers ( he thinks it should be introduced but it's not UKIP policy). He also made the point that UKIP was the only party to ban ex BNP members and that UKIP's rise had done much to stem the rise in the BNP of a decade ago. So we will see but if I was Labour I would be worried.

Mods can you alter as it embarrasses me.

To me he comes across as a most super cilious person - so a perfect replacement for Farage

Farage, would that be the man who's political presence has shaken the entire world? Must have something about him that people take notice of.
If people like you get their way in frustrating the will of the majority voter then I believe Nuttall will become a very influential Politician indeed.

As a card carrying UKIP member I just want Nigel back. He's lovely, railing against the establishment by attending parties at the Ritz with billionaires. I just want him back running UKIP before we lose him completely up Trump's back side. As that will be such a shame.

Isn't it time to tell us who you do support so we can all take the p in the same sarcastic way you do? You say you don't vote Labour so we can't regale you with all manner of tales of Champagne socialism or Tony Bliars millions. You don't vote Tory so we can't explain that Mrs Thatcher lived at the Ritz. Even you won't admit to voting Liberal, surely... no not even you.
The thing is, it's easy to level criticism and not declare your own support but it also diminishes it somewhat.
BTW, the party for your mate Nigel was thrown for him, not by him but why let the facts get in the way.

Nuttall supporting Banks view to kick Scotland out of the UK.
They will have to change their name then, not sure how that will play out with their party members.
BTW Nicola receiving a great ovation in RoI.
Probably not being reported in 'The News Where We Are'.

It does strike me as strange that in today's political world it seems to mean that losing a democratic vote is effectively the same as winning it and, therefore, any vote lost by a small difference is considered to be good reason to keep voting until we get the decision that the losers wanted

And on the other hand some people might find it strange that when a party or person wins an election, especially by a small margin, they seem to think they can then govern based on the specific needs of just the people that voted for them. And not for the whole nation or country.

Is that happening or is it a figment of some peoples prejudice. From what I have seen so far the current Government are not anything like your portrayal.

Actually I called him a racist sexist bigot based on what he has said - I have no idea who Adam Bienkov , it was an article that was posted on my Facebook no need to google
But none of that matters and is just a deflection away from the person's view which in my eyes are racist and sexist and make him a bigot. As per usual you don't actually challenge what the article says more try and demean someone's opinion that may differ from yours
If you agree with Nuttals views then I would put you in the same category as him

No we dont believe you, suffer
I knew you would not:lol: but hand on heart it really was an error, I would not the that crass.
I am certain that the SNP will see him as the best candidate......apart from David Cockburn of course.
