Title: UKIP Twits

Apparently the United Kingdom Independence Party has complained to the Electoral Commission because many of their prospective voters could not find the party on ballot papers for the European Elections. This confirms my expectations of people who would think of voting UKIP.

Nearly as thick as the ones voting for the crooks already in power.

Fair comment though - their box was folded and out of sight unless you undid the fold.

There were 12 UKIP candidates voted in as MEPs in 2004. Only 8 are still members of UKIP in the European Parliament. Of the 12, one was sent to prison for benefit fraud, one has been charged with false accounting and money laundering, two have had to pay back misclaimed money and three have faced investigations by the EU fraud-buster squad (OLAF). Kilroy Silk resigned claiming "financial irregularities" in the party - but I don't expect any of you to believe anything Silk has to say.

I think this makes UKIP the outstanding UK party of fraud and corruption ... and their policies are farcical as well.

Just what I meant, Stoop. Too dim to unfold a piece of paper. But perhaps they don't do origami - what with it being foreign an' all. I notice Crabbit managed ir even though crustaceans are not noted for their dexterity.

If Brown learns of this he'll recruit them as Ministers.
sounds as if they've got the right qualifications.

Rightly. So I've left it as it is.

Not too dim Colwyn - just that some people would not do it. I looked and was surprised that they had put an extra fold in the paper which effectively put one party at a disadvantage.

I agree but it's not the issue :)
