Nigel Farage widely criticised after being buttmassively buttdestroyed in radio interview until UKIP - Polidicks

[url]http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-27459923[/url] [quote]UKIP leader Nigel Farage has been criticised by politicians over comments he made about Romanian immigrants. Mr Farage said he thought people would be concerned if a group of Romanians moved in next door. Labour leader Ed Miliband said the comments were a "racial slur", while Lib Dem leader Nick Clegg said the remarks had no place in modern Britain. On Sunday, Mr Farage said he regretted his form of words but said there was a "real problem" of Romanian criminality. In an interview for LBC Radio on Friday, Mr Farage was asked what the difference was between having a group of Romanian men and German children as neighbours. "You know what the difference is," Mr Farage replied. He added: "I was asked if a group of Romanian men moved in next to you, would you be concerned? And if you lived in London, I think you would be." He also said many migrants coming to the UK had been "forced into a life of crime" by "real poverty" in their country. In a statement following the interview he said: "Any normal and fair-minded person would have a perfect right to be concerned if a group of Romanian people suddenly moved in next door."[/quote] Here's the interview tho it was already in the video section but this thread's about the aftermath you plinky plonker [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4Rq7avG234[/media]

If you want a tl;dr of the interview, [URL="http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/may/16/nigel-farage-lbc-interview-key-moments"]The Guardian does some breakdown and analysis of the highlights of the train wreck itself.[/URL]

That interviewer should host Newsnight or some shit. He's written [url=http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2631581/What-need-know-Nigel-Farage-vote-Thursday-JAMES-OBRIEN-LBC-radio-presenter-Ukip-aide-tried-silence.html]a piece in the Daily Mail[/url] about Farage as well

It's a choice between this liar or that liar, you only really need to choose the one you think might be telling a fraction of truth That's why I'm voting UKIP. Yeah he contradicts himself but he's professional enough and has some policies which I agree with more than Labour or Conservative. They're all tossers really, at least we can change every few years

I think there is an actual media gang up against UKIP, notice how many of the papers keep referring to UKIPs events as 'car crashes' all of a sudden?

Christ he got verbally bitchslapped in the classiest manner

Farage just got shat on in that interview. His counters and avoidance tactics were no match for that guy.

[QUOTE=Vasili;44845624]I think there is an actual media gang up against UKIP, notice how many of the papers keep referring to UKIPs events as 'car crashes' all of a sudden?[/QUOTE] Apparently Private Eye have reported that there is an agreement between the Tories and the Grauniad: the Conservatives feed the paper with negative stories about UKIP, in return for the source of these stories not being divulged. I sincerely hope this is not true.

They're fed up of these bought and paid for journalists, radio hosts, tv presenters and bloggers going to great lengths to smear the party more so than they would any other. All it shows really is how scared they are.

[video=youtube;YQXWUmagwm8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQXWUmagwm8[/video] While we're here, have a much better UKIP interview: Suzanne Evans holding her own against Brillo.

Oh, and is little grilling about having ex BNP members in UKIP? What about the former BNP members in the Labour and Conservative party? This wasn't an interview; it was an interrogation with allegation after allegation. How is one supposed to exactly defend themselves with questions like "is it true you called black people nignogs and niggers in a pub once?" O'brien had no real intention in even letting Farage speak, as he would throw another piece at him before he could. He had no interested in hearing Farage's statements, as his mind was made up from the beginning on what he wanted to do. Oh, and I don't know why this is being spread around so eagerly and proclaimed to be the moment 'Farage got Barraged', because it doesn't look like it to me.

God British elections are confusing. At least here in the good old US, you only have two sides who run on completely ridiculous sides of the spectrum and then as soon as they get into office they go straight down the middle. Then the other party says they're neo-whathever they are and their own party says they're not hardline enough. It's simple.

Yet they are because of idiots like yourself and bigots all around Europe who still believe that the muslamic ray guns are out to dismantle the country.

[QUOTE=Coffee;44845924]Oh boo hoo 'ad hominem', go back to debate lessons in English if that's what you're going to bitch about.[/QUOTE] You voting for shit political parties are the reason the EU is such a terrible institution. See, works both ways. UKIP or not the EU will crumble upon itself so you know, who cares.

[QUOTE=Coffee;44845924]Oh boo hoo 'ad hominem', go back to debate lessons in English if that's what you're going to bitch about.[/QUOTE] No no, by all means keep insulting the opposition. It does wonders.

[QUOTE=Vasili;44845964]No no, by all means keep insulting the opposition. It does wonders.[/QUOTE] Well they do do it in the UK parliament, it's only fair that politics are argued by the common people in the same way.

[QUOTE=Vasili;44845624]I think there is an actual media gang up against UKIP, notice how many of the papers keep referring to UKIPs events as 'car crashes' all of a sudden?[/QUOTE]Its because UKIP is a terrible party filled with people who don't have a clue what they're talking about. I know more than UKIP and I don't even live in the UK.

I don't go calling you an idiot because you want "X". I see immigration as a problem right now and would like it curbed, the only one seemingly capable is UKIP.

To all the people accusing the media of bias against UKIP. What if all this negative press comes from, in fact, UKIP being filled with racists?

[QUOTE=smurfy;44845397][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4Rq7avG234[/media][/QUOTE] haha farrage got fucking barraged

[QUOTE=Coffee;44845924]Oh boo hoo 'ad hominem', go back to debate lessons in English if that's what you're going to bitch about.[/QUOTE] as much as I don't support ukip, this is still a stupid way to approach this.

the one thing i hate most about the UKIP is the amount of fucking leaflets they shove through my door [editline]19th May 2014[/editline] i could have a seperate little bin for all of these annoying campaign leaflets

Some men just want to watch the world burn. That's why I'm voting UKIP.
