What's peoples thoughts on nigel farage?

 
I have to keep this clean, right?
I think he's a marker for a particular paper-reader generation. The type of voter who would rather a free & multi-cultural Britain wasn't an option.
I'm all for Britain keeping it's sovereign powers, and not having to bow down to Europe or any other organisation out to feed it's own ends, but not at the expense of having a man like Farage in power.

I don't think he has much of a political future.
He's good at stirring the masses by spouting the right words at the right moments to whip them into a self-righteous frenzy of nationalism, but really, he'd be no better than the rest of them.

{Ed033's Note - Yes, if he ever did become Prime Minister, he would have to do as his handler told him otherwise he'd find himself having a heart attack.

 
Farage is a old school tory with old tory values.

 
I actually joined the UKIP debating group on FB to get a better perspective of them, there a bunch of pompous persons IMO and my impression of Farrage (although he was'nt part of the group) was that he makes Thatcher look like a left wing liberal.
I got booted from the group for my different views, they said I was anti-semetic simply because I did'nt agree with them.

Tories in disguise. The coalition has killed the Lib Dems as a party at the next election, perhaps forever.

Cameron has said he won't form a coalition with UKIP. If that's what it took to keep the hot seat, he would.

I see UKIP has a conspiracy in this sense. They are there to pander to nationalist and racist undertones in the UK's great 'free, equal and democratic' society and that in turn erodes Labour's white base.
