    You underestimate UKIP's momentum. There's little chance they will win the general election, but at least the point's getting across.

    What point? It has no coherent policy other than to satisfy the dissatisfied. The EU is a great thing for Britian its pros are way stronger than its cons. Even in its current state its worth staying in. We need to renegotiate our position not leave. I do like having someone like farage being an MeP (its always good to have an opposition) The major problem I have with the EU is the democratic deficit (then again the queen is our head of state derp). Immigration is a great thing and UKIP's nightclub policy is stupid.

    Conflating the BNP with the UKIP? You do realize they're polar opposites, right?

    And lol at the first part. Tell Todd Akin, Donald Trump and Pat Robertson I said "hi."

    Well, happy "birthday" or w/e you would call it. Wish them well. Nigel Farage and that other British dude are the only ones i really like out of eurosoviet parliament. They just stand out of all these former communist S.o.B. scums.

    I'm not sure you know what the word 'opposite' means.

    OT: 20 years ago they started with zero seats in Westminster, and now look how far they've progressed...

    I'd be voting for any party called Monster raving looney party if I had the chance, even if they were batshit crazy. Damn great name.
    The nerve is called the "nerve of awareness". You cant dissect it. Its a current that runs up the center of your spine. I dont know if any of you have sat down, crossed your legs, smoked DMT, and watch what happens... but what happens to me is this big thing goes RRRRRRRRRAAAAAWWW! up my spine and flashes in my brain... well apparently thats whats going to happen if I do this stuff...

    The UK has a few such interesting named parties, such as the Church of the Militant Elvis Party, Citizens for Undead Rights and Equality, and the Death, Dungeons and Taxes Party.

    Canada tries to keep up with our Absolutely Absurd Party, Canadian Extreme Wrestling Party, and the Rhinoceros Party.

    Indeed. The fact that in less than two decades, UKIP went from being a minor interest group to being the third largest political party in the country with millions of supporters, representation across the country and the support of over 20% of the British population is a testament to the British people's resolve.

    I'm not sure I would be proud of a populace that buys into conspiracy theories and wishes is against human rights.

    My own political party, the Kalis is a Living God Party has as many seats as they do in Westminster, so how the fuck are they the third largest political party?

    Vote for me by the way, we promise to invade France every second Tuesday in May and September. We may also nuke the Isle of Wight, but that's still in discussion though.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pirate_Party

    They gained some political influence since they got voted into the EU parliament, they hold two of our 20 seats. They are the largest party outside of the parliament to.

    Pirate Party is a label adopted by political parties in different countries. Pirate parties support civil rights, direct democracy and participation, reform of copyright and patent law, free sharing of knowledge (open content), information privacy, transparency, freedom of information and network neutrality

    Because the democratic deficit is such a conspiracy theory. Also, you do realize that the UKIP is the pro-human rights party, right?

    Not sending immigrant murders and rapists back to their home country, because that country has the death penalty is just plain stupid.

    Wikipedia suggests that you have the The Viking Party and the Cheaper Beer Party.

    From the UKIP representative for climate change: "At the moment all the major parties have decided to sign up to the eco-fascist agenda and therefore anyone who does not believe in eco-fascist agenda has no where else to go." (source)

    Oh, and they're sexist.

    And against equality. (libertarian my ass)

    They are still a pretty minor group as it is, the only reason they are ahead of the Spineless party, sorry the "Lib Dems" is because they fucked up with the coalition.

    You know very little about British politics, a lot less than you think you know at least.
