Because the police have to spend more time on race issues than they do on other crimes such as burglary.

That is true Julie but that 41% increase in racially motivated attacks was being laid at the door of Farage by Azz, so what's that old saying, "lies, damned lies and statistics" ..

Proving yet again, that one man's terrorist is another man's hero.

I didn't vote for UKIP, but not because of a hatred of Farage. I agree with a lot of what he says, and do not believe he is a racist, i believe he thinks immigration has got to ridiculous numbers which I agree with, but I am not racist either.
It is a shame that in this country we cannot speak our concerns without being called racist, or anti this or that. I admire Farage that he has the nerve to stand up for what he believes, and ignores the criticism he gets for it.
His Brexit stance was not just about immigration, it was about the billions wasted in the EU, the fact we cannot make our own decisions, and the economic grip Europe, especially Germany, has over us. On all that i totally agree with him and he had my support.
Wether I think I could be friends with someone does not and should not affect how I feel about thier politics.

Re: Farage being sued!!!

The 41% increase was comparing the month of July 2015 to the Month of July 2016.

This is how stupid the Antifa have come down to.

Yes, I agree with all of that.

It is true that accusations of 'racism', 'islamophobia', xenophobia and so on are particularly prevalent these days and I for one am sick and tired of hearing them, especially from those individuals (no names, Jabbott the Hutt) who have a chip the size of a log on their shoulder.

However, that in itself could be self-defeating.

The more such accusations are made, the less notice people will take of them!

Re: Farage being sued!!!

Hi

I am quite prepared to accept that many people do not agree with my decision to vote to leave, in fact nearly of those who bothered to vote in the Referendum voted to stay.

It was a Democratic decision, it stands.

If the vote had been to remain I would have had the good grace to accept that decision and get on with life.

I am not a UKIP Supporter, I am somewhat left of Centre in my Politics.

I am however fed up with being accused of a being a stupid, uneducated, xenophobic racist just because I voted to leave.

I will certainly never be voting Lib Dem in the foreseeable future until they learn to respect democratic decisions.

I think they need to rename themselves as they are neither liberal or democratic IMO

What a prat that professor is. Nothing at all in Rudd's speech can be interpreted as racist.
