UKIP STARTING TO MAKE FRIENDS

......and lots of them regardless of race, religion and inclination as their massive election victory shows.
Every picture tells a story, apart from making a zillion and one hate-filled posts look more than a little silly.
"If anyone took the media caricatures of UKIP seriously - and the numbers suggest not many voters did - then UKIP's new batch of MEPs would likely comprise of a ragtag of three-headed monsters with obsessive tendencies.
Instead, the party slated by some as being sexist, racist and generally backwards has elected the most fascinatingly diverse, broad church of individuals to the European Parliament to serve for the next five years.
The profile of UKIP's new raft of MEPs defies the unfounded, willingly ignorant claims made.
Racist? Weird that Amjad Bashir, a Muslim Yorkshireman will be representing UKIP alongside Steven Woolfe, a mixed-race City man originally from Moss Side.
Sexist? The party now has seven female MEPs, including Jill Seymour in the West Midlands and Jane Collins in Yorkshire who topped their regional lists as the lead candidates. Not because they are women - because they are bloody good.
Homophobic? Not sure that David Coburn, UKIP's newly elected, gay Scottish MEP would quite agree with that one.
Maybe the people most out of touch aren't those in Farage's people's army, but those who seek to attack and misrepresent a party they simply don't understand."

Yesterdays latest blunder by the Chairman of one of Londons UKIP branches is a classic example.
" London being ethnically cleansed of white people ".

Biased and not independent because it is written by UKIP.

Thing is EVERY Party has idiots but the press don't focus on them.
Even Gordon Brown called Gillian Duffy a bigot, are her views not valid just because they aren't the same as his.
My point being individuals views don't represent that of the party. Same as Diane Abbots didn't represent that of Labour.
