[QUOTE=Drsalvador;44857622]We have the Universal Union.[/QUOTE] I voted Pedro.
My views on these policies: [QUOTE=Policies]• Cut state spending to 1997 levels with loss of two million public sector jobs, replaced by one million new manufacturing jobs and at least another million created because of Ukip's lower tax environment.[/QUOTE] Not Sure. [QUOTE=Policies]• Five-year freeze on immigration for permanent settlement followed by 50,000 annual cap.[/QUOTE] Agree. [QUOTE=Policies]• End active promotion of the doctrine of multiculturalism.[/QUOTE] Agree, but how would this be enforced? Do they want to make it illegal for people to endorse multiculturalism? That would be a bit excessive. [QUOTE=Policies]• Increase spending by 40%, double the size of the Territorial Army and increase total armed forces numbers by 25%.[/QUOTE] Disagree. [QUOTE=Policies] • Buy three new aircraft carriers and 50 more Lightning fighter jets.[/QUOTE] Disagree. [QUOTE=Policies] • Arm four new submarines with US nuclear missiles.[/QUOTE] Strongly disagree. [QUOTE=Policies] • Support coal-fired power and oppose wind farms.[/QUOTE] Disagree, nuclear power only practical alternative. [QUOTE=Policies] • Stop funding UN's climate change panel.[/QUOTE] Agree/Disagree depending on how much money is paid. [QUOTE=Policies] • Ban schools from showing Al Gore's film, An Inconvenient Truth.[/QUOTE] Strongly disagree, our children should be made aware of different views and opinions.
[QUOTE=WhollyRufus;44858244]Jobs: Not sure[/QUOTE] Ok, let's put it this way. They instantly want to remove 2 million office people and create 2 million factory jobs. They've not talked about where these office people are going to get new jobs all of a sudden, where the training for all these factory jobs will come from, and how they will implement it. How are they suppose to simple 'create' a specific set of jobs in a free market economy? Government office jobs are pretty easy to create, but government manufacturing? How? Doing what? What are they going to suddenly be producing on mass that can't be imported cheaper? [QUOTE=WhollyRufus;44858244]Multiculturalism[/QUOTE] What is even wrong with multiculturalism? We already live in a multicultural society. With that, what even is it? Is it being tolerant or forced integration? Who's definition are we using and what exactly are people doing to make it such a dirty word?

In the aftermath of the Holocaust they chose to embrace nationalism. If multiculturalism was so great don't you think the Jewish people would have chosen it instead of creating their own state? That suggest to me that ideal way of guaranteeing safety and protection for the people of this world is to give them their own borders, their own legal systems, and their own Armed Forces for self defense. That's not to say different cultures should be totally isolated from each other, but cooperation and goodwill shouldn't extend to a point where a nation cannot be considered as having it's own national identity defined along cultural, and (sometimes) religious lines. I also find it a bit hypocritical how people like David Cameron talk about how Kippers have said "appalling things" and then turn around and send congratulations on the election Narendra Modi, a man who may have deliberately allowed (some say even encouraged) [B]pogroms[/B] against Muslims in his home state. If there was even the suggestion that someone like Farage had encouraged pogroms against Romanians Cameron would probably have Theresa May ban his party.

[QUOTE=Vasili;44858955]Multiculturalism is objectifying its people into takeaways and fashion.[/QUOTE]Uhh, no?
