You're right. However, Nigel has said that he is willing to come back if the traitors manage to keep us under the jackboot.

Should that prove untrue, we certainly need another independent political party that has a clear manifesto to honour the Brexit referendum.

Yes, a "one trick pony" of a party by all means; a way in which the majority can ensure their decision will be acted upon.

May has shown, of course, that she will not respect that decision and is doing every underhand act she can think of to keep us under the EU thumb.

Fortunately, there are some Conservative MPs, and even some Labour MPs, who are willing to support a majority decision.

I may be wrong but I thought he said he would come back to the campaign but he has no plans to go back to UKIP, he is still a member but finding it hard to hang on with some of the things they say now.

You may be right.

I'm afraid the UKIP has gone completely the wrong way, what with numerous new leaders and profound changes in policy.

As I said, perhaps a completely new party?

Those sentiments were absent during Nigel's rule, or did he effectively quash them?

They have always been like that, BNP in disguise.

He was always quick to expel anyone that espoused those views.

Re: Enough of the doom and gloom.

It really is a shame that since he left, the party has been infiltrated by the far right and other unsavoury characters.
I'm sure this will put many people off voting for UKIP. Especially without Nigel.

We desperately need a new party in the mix.

Well he seems to say a lot of sense to me but of course he hasn't any real power so any ideas he has can't be put through. He does an extremely interesting radio show is always so polite to everyone and listens to all sides of every subject, unlike some presenter that james obrien in the morning comes to mind as one of the worst.
