MADAM – It’s a sign that a major party is really rattled when their past leaders start using playground insults.
I am a member of Ukip, I also regularly donate to local charities, and to the good national ones.
I do not oppose immigration as such (neither, in essence, does Ukip), I love European culture.
But I was never asked about giving up the right to decide how my country is run – none of us were.
And that is what we have given away, not just on immigration control, but fishing, the environment, important aspects of law and justice and many other traditionally sovereign rights.
If that largely fraudulent (in electoral terms) process is reversed, there will be no need for Ukip.
Until it is reversed, Ukip is necessary.
