UKIP and fellow travellers
It is a general rule of politics of course that you cannot choose who supports you but UKIP have particular problems in that regard.
The Independent reports that Nick Griffin, the former leader of the far, far-right British National Party, has said he is planning on voting for Ukip at the next general election.#
Now that is not UKIP's fault apart from the fact that they clearly have policies that appeal to former BNP MEPs. Oh and Nigel Farage said earlier this year that he was “quite proud” of taking votes from the BNP.
So I am afraid that it is mea culpa as far as UKIP go. I am sure you will both get on famously.
