I don't know anyone who doesn't openly dislike ukip. Am I just lucky enough not to have encountered any ukippers, or is it some kind of guilty secret most of them keep to themselves? |

MrStevenRogers of this very parish would practically lick Farage's ring-piece given the opportunity, certainly going by his posting on here. |

Oh please, you will still be the mad king of nothing. Your family all pretend they will vote how you tell them to because the alternative is for you to spit all over the Sunday roast and scare the children as you shout across the dinner table about stuff they don't care about. I mock you without bothering to disguise it, which makes me your best friend. |

I must admit, I've never understood these isolationist view points. Even as a child learning history, the US isolationism of the 30s and 40s never made sense and the calls around the world now for countries to isolate themselves from outside influences make even less sense. My parents weren't pro-Europe, but they weren't anti-Europe either. I grew up seeing the benefits of Europe and international trade - as I was about 6 or so my father started working for a shop outfitters that imported carpet padernosters from Germany and other goods out of Italy. Back in the 70s, I got the opportunity to travel across Europe and get to know Europeans - usually in "real" towns and villages, not holiday resorts. My mother started working for an American oil exploration company a couple of years later and I got to meet people from all over the Middle East and Africa. Having travelled a bit myself, I wouldn't want to be couped up in England with no ties to the wider world. And when I look at the immigration problems that the rest of Europe has to cope with, it makes the UK's problems seem laughable. I live about 4 miles from an asylum camp for refugees, they come into town on a regular basis and are generally very friendly. Luckily we are way outside of the major metropoles, so the right wing protesters don't bother coming here and everybody seems to live peacefully. There have been riots and protests lately about the number of asylum seekers that are being let into the country, but the general opinion is still against these people (the protestors(. Having travelled extensively in Europe over the years, especially since the Euro was introduced, I've always been annoyed that the UK never took on the Euro. I can visit my friends all over Europe without having to show my passport and without having to exchange currency, but when I want to come back to the UK and visit friends and family, I have to dig out my passport and I have to worry about the exchange rates. |

 However as they "Claim" to represent to ordinary working man how much do they need to use twitter. Around my friends of a similar age to me I don't know one who uses twitter. I have an account but never sent a tweet and only look at my train Company's feed when its all gone t1ts up on my line |

i and my family do not care about anything in Europe but we do care about the things that happen here at home no member of my family has a passport nor do they require a passport we have the pound not the Euro, thankfully all we need to do with the EU is trade, nothing more nothing less you and the rest in Europe can get on with it but hopefully without the UK call on us when we are really needed, we will see what we can do, again ... |

The question that jumps to mind here is simply "why?" Even if you don't want to be part of Europe in any political / economic sense, it's full of amazing places to visit, food to try and so on and so forth. Why the desire to just completely shut yourself off from almost the entire world? |
