    It is fully costed as they've given pound for pound savings to expenditure.

    You're assuming that we will do worse outside of the EU, which is an opinion. What is a FACT is that we would save the money as listed in the costed UKIP manifesto. What happens next is up for debate but clearly not of enough significance that the CEBR felt they wouldn't put there name to the figures.

    My point was more, why aren't the other parties expected to have there manifestos independently costed too?

    It would bring some credibility back to politics if people believed the parties could find the money to fulfil there pledges. As it stands it's all empty promises.

    I believe one of the things they do is provide statistics for the EU so can't imagine they would want to see UKIP actually win the election <laugh>

    Though I don't know enough about them to be certain they are 100% independent.

    My point was more that it's a good idea to make the parties get there manifestos independently costed.

    Utter bollocks. CEBR didn't put a cost to it as they weren't asked to, they only costed what was in black and white

    To say that they didn't think it had enough significance a sentence after saying I've made an assumption around what will happen if we leave the EU is ****ing hilarious in its idiocy

    Leaving the EU WILL have a negative effect on trade with the EU, that's not an assumption it's a ****ing fact. We'll become subject to export taxes which will affect how competitive we are in that market, that's basic economics 101. Only UKIP have completely glossed over it and have assumed that there'll be zero negative impact economically which is complete horse **** and you've fallen for it.

    Your a right **** the way you talk to people. You should wind your neck in and treat people with a bit of respect.

    Irrespective of the plausibility of their economic strategy, there are so many reasons why no intelligent person should exercise a single brain cell wondering whether or not to take UKIP seriously.

    This is the typical response to anyone supporting UKIP, shout them down as less intelligent. It's amusing that people think there political stance somehow makes them more intelligent <laugh>

    Ok, forget intelligent and substitute socially aware, common decency or not wanting to send us back to the dark ages.

    So which specific UKIP policies would take us back to the dark ages? Have you read there manifesto? Do you actually have any idea of any of there policies or do you just hear the word immigration used often and assume it's all just filled with random racist ****?

    You were rude to me for no reason and don't deserve to be given a respectful response. Why when you act like a **** would I not treat you like one?

    I wasn't rude at all, I'll be rude now though you cockney **** house, you deserve zero respect from me now and that's what you'll get. As you can't back up your massive gob with a decent argument that backs up your point, so YOU resorted to abuse, you're nothing but a vacant moron

    Your first response to me called me hilariously idiotic, was condescending and generally just plain rude for no reason. Your a ****.

    I haven't responded in regards to the EU as your first comment was so ****ing rude, why would I engage in a debate with someone who from the off is looking to attack anything I say? I've more than once on these forums talked about the EU and several of the reasons I don't think it's in the UKs best interests. For a piece of **** like you though I won't bother :)
