I had some sort of a dream and it gave me the option to be like "yeah Dan has had the same dream".

 

UKIP's William Henwood says Lenny Henry should go and live in 'a black country' - http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2014/04/26/ukip-lenny-henry-_n_5219469.html?utm_hp_ref=uk

 

Oh FFS, I like Farage but I'd never vote UKIP as they have too many oddballs.

 

You should have seen his answer to his German wife being his secretary. He was so easily manoeuvred into saying the wrong thing.

 

UKIP - totally not racist.

 

Yes I saw that. Nick Robinson completely tore him apart with that one question. Such irony that a man who has campaigned so strongly against immigration and EU people coming over here to work, is married to a German immigrant who works for him. Couldn't make it up really.

 

The only thing different about Farage is he's not stupid enough to actually say these bigoted things he believes.

 

Give it 20 years and something will come out about something ridiculous he's said or done, I'm sure of it. If anyone still cares about him in 20 years, that is.

 

Two new Saints today

Could the Pope help us out in the transfer window. No bothersome negotiations...he just declares them Saints.

 

He rips on Westminster MPs for taking loads of tax money for non-salary expenses, but at the same time gets £2m himself for being an MEP (on top of a £64k salary). So that's something.

 

Manchester United are to award their longest serving member of staff Ryan Giggs by giving him the managers job at Old Trafford. They are also awarding the second longest member of staff Howard Webb by making him Giggs assistant.

 

UKIP will still win the EU vote coming soon.

Too good.

 

The funny thing is is that UKIP keep calling for an EU referendum, but if they form a government they'd take us out straight away and not give people a say. To get a majority of MPs, you need about 35% of the vote, so if UKIP got in not everyone would be demanding immediate withdrawal, and if they say that all of their voters want an immediate withdrawal, then surely that shows that they're a one-policy party and only voting on their EU stance and not health, education, etc?! The Tories have the best stance on the EU.

 

The Tories never have the best stance on anything.

 

Exactly! Sums up the European Parliament, doesn't it. Reminds me of the EU accounts..have they been signed off yet...how many years is that now?

 

Most people want to stay in the EU and to reform it, and want a referendum. Labour and the Liberal Democrats don't believe in direct democracy on an issue which affects many areas. They've lost half the electorate.

 

Blimey. Do you get text alerts every time someone mentions the EU or something?

 

How do you know that? I think we should have a referendum to decide.
