Farage is showing his stupidity on TV today by calling the Edinburgh student demonstrators fascist scum. They retalite by labeling UKIP as the BNP in nicer suits. Tough on NF in his pin stripe.
The SNP are now piling in to give him a deserved kicking. He has compounded his mistake further. Helmer did not help on C4 news tonight. He looks and souds like a typical old Tory which he is. There are more pandas in Edinburgh zoo than Tory MPs in Scotland.
The Scots detest London smart boys who wear Arthur Daley coats. Best stick to the home counties Mr Farage.

Somerset Tories target UKIP controlled Ramsey Council
Tomorrow we vote in our local Somerset County election in the election which was held over following the sad death of UKIP candidate Audrey Spencer. I was asked to step in and out of respect for Audrey's memory I agreed to rejoin UKIP and stand. My application was rejected. No reasons were given to me or the Yeovil branch. That is the EUKIP way learned in the bars of Brussels. Thank goodness the excellent Yeovil branch chairman Nigel Pearson managed to find another candidate and get her name on the ballot paper.
Yesterday I had a leaflet from the curiously named Marcus Fysh the Tory candidate. He has a special section on voting UKIP. His most telling point is,
"UKIP increased council tax by 28% at the only council they control. Somerset Tories have frozen council tax for the last four years"
Now I only know of one council UKIP controls, Ramsey. It has as its mayor Lisa Duffy, UKIP's Party Director. Her partner Peter Reeve, UKIP, is also on the council so its very much a UKIP family business. The Tories are biting back and this is their first UKIP target. They have chosen well. Reeve and Duffy have lots off political baggage, not up to Hamilton scale but more recent and closer to NF. We live in interesting times and tomorrow I will be able to vote for a UKIP candidate.

EUKIP's betrayal of our cause and Labour's betrayal of the working class
I have no idea where the current shenanigans in Tory Westminster over enabling bills, amendments to the Queen's speech, hypothetical EU referendum's in 4 years time etc will end but of one thing I am sure its not talked about in Brussels where EUKIP and its leadership live and take their EU payoffs. It is debated and discussed in the UK and it will be settled in the UK. It shows the irrelevance of Farage's Brussels 'strategy', although that euphenism flatters EUKIP's personal greed as a political process. They are only in Brussels for the money in their pockets not to save our country for our children.
It must by now be abundantly clear to a one eyed cat that Farage' s EUKIP is no more than an off shore pressure group and not a political party. To influence this fast moving debate and try and get us this referendum and win it requires a party headquarters in London with a leader and advisors based there 24/7 not in the bars of Brussels. Things are moving very fast and Dave is running scared. Clegg and Millipede are also vulnerable.
We have to fight the battle for the UK in the UK with our own money. It cannot be fought and won in Brussels on EU money that can be withdrawn any time.
The Mail online runs an excellent piece by Tim Shipman entitled,

It shows that to score political points Labour conspired to reduce the wages of their core supporters and hand over their jobs and council houses to immigrants to make the UK multi-racial. Now I don't ever recall reading that in any of Tony's Labour manifestos. I wonder why not?.
Young Mr Heaver has written a similarly themed piece on his Telegraph blog. It would be nice to know which piece came first?
The BBC, true Europhiles to a man, ran a clip of Ken Clarke on the 6pm news tonight pooh poohing the idea of leaving the EU saying we would be foolish to do so. It suddeny reminded me of another pompous overweight man with a loud voice, loud opinions supported by zero facts. I refer to Cap'n Bob Maxwell.
You can look forward to a mega FUD, Fear Uncertainty & Doubt, campaign from the Europhile establishment. Enjoy but don't swallow!

Mr Neather , a Mandelson advisor, said the policy was designed to ‘rub the Right’s nose in diversity’.
He said there was ‘a driving political purpose: that mass immigration was the way that the Government was going to make the UK truly multicultural’.

FT tells truth about us and the EU - at last!
The FT is the most Europhile UK newspaper. When a young man Nigel Lawson used to write for it. I was staggered to read today's headine,
"Lord Lawson is right - Britain does not need Europe"
for a piece by Wolfgang Munchau that I recommend you click and read,
http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/08ce43b0-b8d9-11e2-869f-00144feabdc0.html#axzz2TBFx2Vg2
It says all I have known about the UK's relations with the EEC/EU but what the UK Europhiles have never admitted. His final paragraph sums it up,
"My overall conclusions, however, concur with his. There may be reasons why the UK may wish to remain a member of the EU. But whatever they are, they are not economic."
There never was an economic case for entry in 72/73. It was a political decision that the could not be justifed by political argument so the political elite resorted to a scaremongering econmic story to terrify the UK voters. They are still doing it! They continuously imply there will be 3 million jobs lost if we dared leave the EU. It is a complete lie. The truth is the exact opposite = leaving the EU will create jobs by removing the dead hand of the EU from the UK's neck.
It came up tonight on C4 news when the young Tory fogie, Jacob Rees Mogg, pointed out that we would have had a free trade agreement with the US years ago had we not handed over the negotiations to the EU. That is the plain truth.

Lawson, Healey & Lamont say leave the EU
It is quite staggering that 3 former chancellors have publically come out against UK continued membership of the EU. Healey is now 95 should have been Labour leader and PM in the mid seventies after Wilson retired but like David Milliband he was defeated by a lesser man Callaghan who grovelled to the unions. He was famous as the chancellor who turned round at Heathrow because of a sterling crisis. Sunday morning and Michael Forsyth, former Tory Scottish secretary has come out against membership of the EU. He and Lamont are not premier league but Lawson, Healey and Portillo are very much champions league performers.
Booker this morning in the Telegraph urges using Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty to firm up the arguments but of course the 1972 European Act will have to be repealed. There is clearly a strong wish amongst the British people to leave the EU and negotiate our own trade deals with Europe and the wider world from outside the EU and designed in the interests of Britain. Our problem is to get a fair referendum on leaving the EU put to the British people something the political elite of all parties bitterly oppose.. Why?
The reason is the EU provides a huge financial gravy train for the political elite to line their pockets. It gives a world platform for this largely self appointed and self perpetuating elite to strut and preen their huge egos which go with their limited inteligence and massive greed.
Look at the Kinnocks, an EU happy family. Mr Kinnock, aka the Welsh Windbag, Mrs Kinnock and Master Kinnock have all had huge amounts of EU money over the years. What talent or training does Mrs Frtumpy have to be head of the EU Fororeign Office with a salary three times he Briitish PM.
EU massaging of the political elite egos and bank balances starts with lavishly subsidised school trips to Brussels and Strasbourg and paid internships for the well connected jeunesse doree like Pinnochio Clegg who was found a nice little job in EU commissioner Leon Brittan's office to ease his way into the euro political elite. Huhne was another who enjoyed EU munificence at an early age. They and many others saw which side their bread was buttered on and also that the views of the electorate were irrelevant to the Euro ruling class.
This was clearly shown in an interview Andrew Neil did with a French MEP whose constituency she claimed includes London. (How?) She was quite clear this was a matter for Britain's political leaders to sort out. That says exactly why we should not be in the EU and never should have joined the EEC. I was working for the Civil Service in 72/73 and it was clear then that our culture and system was incompatible with the European dirigiste regimes. The economic argument was used as a smokescreen to cover the federalist intentions of our political elite, Woy, Teddy, Shirl etc. It is now clearto Joe Public this was a massive con. The economic future of this country lies with the Commonwealth, and the other BRICs.
I have written this over two days so I update from the Sunday papers and TV. Twinkletoes Cable in the Telegraph in furtherance of his leadership ambitions takes as Eurosceptic position as I have ever seen a senior LibDem espouse in public but of course the greatest contribution came fro Michael Gove, a cabinet minister, who said on the BBC Marr lite show that if there were a referendum on our EU membership tomorrow he would vote for us to leave! He added his preferred option would be the Dave renegotiation but he obviously thinks that day will never see a dawn.

Time for another election
This coalition government is finished. The Queen's speech was content free and there will be 5 days wasted debating its vacuity! Its not as if the country has no problems, there are problems everywhere you look. Dave is now Clegg's prisoner and totally impotent. What are these guys going to do for the next 2 years?
In 2010 Dave was so desperate to get into Downing St. he would have signed anything. He was elected leader by persuading Tory MPs he was Eurosceptic. He is a man without principle. a vacuous PR man and a self confessed Europhile like Clegg.
So where now? I cannot see the Tory backbenchers not kicking up. Most of them detest the LibDems, with good reason in my opinion and don't trust Dave. Many expect to lose their seat so they are not susceptible to whip's pressure. They have put down an amendment to the Queen's speech, very unusual but entirely within the rules. There have been rumoursall day that something was being cooked up and it is now reported by the BBC click on link to read.
It seems the Speaker who of course hates Dave will allow this amendment to be tabled. Former chancellor Lamont has come out virtually backing the Nigel Lawson line that we would be better off out of the EU. BoJo, Dave's likely successor is very equivocal and clearly preparing to challenge Dave if things go the right way for BoJo.
There is a clear right wing anti-EU vote which if not split would deliver a big majority. The only problem is no one trusts Cameron and Farage has stated he will not enter into any electoral pact with the Tories whilst Cameron is leader. That puts the ball in the Tories court. Their Europhiles, Howe, Heseltine, Clarke and Hurd knifed Mrs Thatcher in the back. Its time for the Tory Eurosceptics to show the same ruthlessness or leave the field clear for UKIP.
The slimey LibDems will vote against any attempt to give the electorate the EU referendum they want. We cannot have government dictated by a minority party with nutty policies on wind farms etc. Lets have an election now and end this fatuous state of affairs. No more coalitions please and there can be no meaningful renegotation with the EU so lets have a straight in out vote asap.
