Looks like you're right.

I am pleased

If people do not vote UKIP
the two main parties will do nothing about immigration

I do not see as racist
this country can only support so many people, we already have too many

That is not strictly true as you can actually fit 1.5 billion people onto the Isle of Wight.

I heard that you could comfortably stand the world's population on the Isle of Wight. I admit the figure was only about 4.5 billion at the time

But what happens if any of them need to pick their nose or scratch their balls? It would be carnage.

So there you have it.

21,113 'racists' voted for UKIP in Clacton.

I thought the luvvies insisted that 'racists' were a tiny minority of the UK population.

21,000 in a small seaside town, who'd have thought it????



Cleggy's man dead and floating out to sea.

21,113 plus 11,016 in Heywood

I make that 32,129. 

'Small minority' of racists for just two towns.

It would surely be more of a surprise if an Essex seaside town was not full of racists?

Are they racists?

For not wanting to live in places where they're outnumbered 2-1 by non whites?
Report jed.davison October 10, 2014 2:45 PM BST
I'm not talking about that CMAT, the place I live you wouldn't see a black face from one week to the next and most people are irredeemably racist.

I actually believe that people are less likely to be racist if they live in mixed areas because people soon learn that everyone is pretty much the same under the skin - they have the same problems, they aspire to the same things etc.

And there are few places where whites are outnumbered 2-1 by non-whites. Clacton is certainly not one of them.

I'm down in Deal for a long weekend, and I read in the local paper that my old classmate David Little has been selected as UKIP's candidate for Deal and Dover.

He was alright in school, a short lad and quite funny with it.  We all fancied his mum.

I only heard from him once after leaving school.  It was six years later - he phoned me up out of the blue and tried to sell me insurance.

LOL Stevie, he's a bit of an anti-hero on the Politics forum, used to be a regular contributor to these forums before he got the call from Farage.

Plenty of so called 'clever people' took the piss out of blackburn on the politics forum, but how many of those stood for parliament?
Report jed.davison October 10, 2014 3:26 PM BST
None of them as far as I know. Plenty of "clever people" may have taken the piss out of him, but I don't remember any of them besting him, but I do remember the race card being played more often than not when he lmade them look silly.

I used to like winding blackie up,i had him ready to invade scotland with his son a 4 other squaddies but my favourite was his going out for a meal with sigmund freud .
When sigmund had been dead for 30 years.
He never showed his face on the forum for months.
But generally it was just good natured abuse.
If the guardian were ever to get hold of some of the stuff he would be dead meat though as it was not politically correct.

Funny you used to need to pass an aptitude test for most jobs, but I don’t think you need to pass one to be an MP.

We were in the middle stream at school, which meant capable but lazy -  no wonder he ended up on here! Grin

I do remember he was a laugh though.  That's a good sign, imo.
