Kilroy 4 UKIP
 
OMG Kilroy Silk is standing as a candidate for the UKIP.
Still at least he is not standing for the BNP.
He's been an MP before but I forget which party.

I like the guy. He's not afraid of speaking his mind. Shame there are people who shout racist if you do this like. Its very easy to throw the word racist about now a bit too easy in fact I'd say it's helping to create them

In your opinion. In my opinion I didn't think he was wrong in what he said.

I don't particularly like the guy, but I think he was poorly treated by the BBC.

If he wants to stand then fair enough, untilI read about what he is standing for I'll reserve judgement.

I think if he thought about what he said, and said the right things, he could win a lot of support from the majority that feel that immigrants/foriegners have too much power, but stop short of actually being part of the BNP. I know that group is fairly big.

On the whole though, as a person, with or without his arabs comment, he is a bit of a joke, so I don't know how many people would trust him to do anything important. But saying something publically that people on the whole are too afraid to say, some people say is the mark of a good leader. So I don't know, it would go either way. You either love him, or hate him.

Oh yes Labour, not sure why but I keep thinking he was a Conservative.
The European elections are PR (proportional representation) so it will be slightly easier to gain a seat than with first past the post.
