That's good to hear, I always had the horrible suspicion that he might be a Lib Dem or something.
A very good and impassioned speech marred by a few inaccuracies tending toward political double speak and scaremongering.
It's a bloody marvellous speech!
No he doesn't - he says HE is going to vote UKIP. All he recommends for everyone else is that you vote for anyone other than the big three.
I think you should correct your post title.
R, I'd never tried to guess his political leanings.
Anti, see what Anon says.
SHM, you pedant.
Good for him. I'm voting UKIP and I'd certainly vote UKIP if you were standing in my constituency.
There isn't much choice - the constituency adjacent to us have an LPUK candidate, the lucky devils.
The Tories have started putting their boards up locally. Time for us UKIP lot to respond in kind, methinks.
Actually Mark, it IS my real name - and I can prove it with my passport and drivers licence.
And I'm still right, but you just don't like it..
It's not being pedant - it's fact, and relies on more than where a comma lies in a sentence.
You just don't like being corrected is all.
And I wont be voting for any of the big three either - I agree with Condell.
Atheism?
Paul, thanks. Every vote counts.
SHM, I've changed the post title, what's the problem? Out of interest, are you the famous pirate who lived centuries ago?
JH, that's what Pat is famous for. I didn't realise he did politics as well.
Mark
I can understand the resentment that is radiating out from you. I get corrected sometimes and I don't like it either - but I like to think I accept it with good grace.
Am I the old-time privateer - no, of course not. But I did have a Plymouth traffic cop who saw my licence once ask me if I was in the navy.
"And I wont be voting for any of the big three either - I agree with Condell."
Might you be voting for the Pirate Party (www.pirateparty.org.uk) by any chance?
