   If this is meant to refer to UKIP, it’s bonkers. Whatever our shortcomings as a democracy, we are not Germany in 1933 or Italy in 1922 ( nor the Soviet Union or Communist China)

     Not just ‘bonkers’, actually quite a malevolent contextual distortion of quite pertinent, even noble words. In any event Mr Warne, you are much too late! The ‘extremists’ have been in charge in this country for many years already! Admirable though Mr Rosen undoubtedly is, you might do better to look towards Orwell for enlightenment.

       David,

       Welcome! Glad to have you as a reader.

       Perhaps while you’re here you’d like to add your thoughts to my previous post, about Alan Craig joining your party? Do you think he’ll be an asset to your ‘People’s Army’? How do his views on gay sex and gay marriage sit with UKIP’s “libertarian” perspective?

       with best regards,

       Martin

   UKIP’s candidate in the Rochester by-election Mark Reckless is openly talking about deporting EU citizens if his party forms part of the next government and takes the UK out of Europe: http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2014/nov/19/ukip-mark-reckless-immigrants-rochester-and-strood
