I became a UKIP voter a few years ago....Nigel is the only one who sees the Euro for what it is....you cannot fit all the countries into one suit....sort them out Nigel:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

UKIP have done really well so far considering they don't hardly get any air time on the BBC. It's always been that way.

His point about this euro dictatorship is very true, far right groups are being formed and supported all over Europe and there could be a civil war and overthrowing of a government in Greece or Spain soon as the people don't like it one bit. The Euro is f***ed. It was the worst single idea in the history of mankind and is only continuing as the people in brussels are desperate to preserve their incomes and lifestyles. £ 640 000 000 spent on a new headquarters a couple of years ago tells you all you need to know. Thank the lord we are not in the Euro, the only decent thing GB did.

Ten years ago or so I was a party member and it was a very amateurish affair. They gradually lost their way for a while but I'm glad to see they're now coming back strongly. Definitely an option for me at the next general election.

And to bring some football into the thread - how ironic that the next three countries most likely to do a Greece are in the same Euro group ???

Hopefully they will be an option for other people too.

Sorry, I still think he's a total nob who does happen to be correct on this one aspect. Ultimately, someone needs to actually PAY to bail out the fragile South European banks, which means handing money over through taxes and this should be done in exchange for Europe-wide reform in the banking sector to ensure lending is more responsible in future.

As for Farage, it's very easy to go spouting about how we should pull out of Europe and how they do nothing for us because millionaires like him can always pull up the drawbridge when economic conditions take a turn for the worse, as they would do if we pulled out of the EC.

Rare for me to agree with Simster, but "this".

Farage is an opportunity politician who as Cameron has moved the tories into the centre has exploited the gap they've left behind. He's blusters and grandstands as he knows it will popular enough to get him a few million votes and a few nice MEP seats withouth any danger that he'll ever have any power or real influence.

what he said in that last youtube clip is exactly true, the rise of the BNP in england, the spectaculer rise of Le Penn is France, the Greek ultra nationalists scoring over 10%, is disilluisionment with mainstream parties who do not represent the wishes of their electorate. and a failed anti democratic EU, designed by politicians without any concensus of the masses.

The people are being squeezed, jobs losses and poverty and are countries in the eurozone are hamstrung by the European central bank with dictats imposed on them that they should galdly accept, to keep this failed anti democratic eurodream alive.

If the mainstream parties listened or let the people decide (they never will), it will end very quickly. Because they totally disregard the masses, the unfortunate rise of extreme parties will continue.

Correct.

To be fair to Farage, he has been consistent from the very start, he must be feeling quite pleased with himself.

The main parties lumber on behind him, whilst the Europhiles squirm and seem to be the most vociferous in debate even though they seem to be proved so very wrong.

I think in the first clip, when he was making his speech of that lounging MEP that had indulged in too many long lunches at our expense, whilst on his mobile phone sums up the whole European Parliament.

Arrogant, self indulgent and out of touch.

His star is rising because people are fed up of not having a say on Europe. Interestingly, David Owen, a very pro EU politician, is suggesting that it is almost inevitable that the UK is going to need a referendum soon to determine our relationship with what is likely to be a new EU. He's suggesting that to save the Euro the Eurozone countries will have to "expel" weaker countries such as Spain and Italy to form a new smaller but fully integrated Eurozone - that means full fiscal and political integration. The expelled countries would form the second EU grouping with in much the same way the UK is now. Finally there would be a third grouping of countries that would have free trade agreements with the EU and Eurozone - Switzerland and possibly the UK amongst a few others. If he's right and that happens and there's a referendum then those that don't like Farage / UKIP will probably pleased because there's little for them to represent once a referendum is held.

I hope David Owen is right and I'd certainly vote for the UK to be in the third grouping.

Think he's brilliant. Says it how it is and no bullshit. Liked the one where he put Blair in his place :)

I just watched that. I am not sure if he did but Blair in his place.
