Title: I agree with Nigel.
Post by: Anchorman on September 22, 2018, 10:16:35 AM
I never, ever thought I'd say this - I agree with Farage on this one. Not that I'd ever even think of voting for either him or his 'party' in my worst nightmares, but sometimes, even he has to be right..... https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2018/09/21/ukip-war-nigel-farage-gerard-batten-clash-tommy-robinson-membership/

I disagree with Nigel. If Tommy Robinson qualifies for membership under their rules, why shouldn't he be allowed to join if he wants to?

I am sure Robinson qualifies for membership of that horrible party, he is a racist. >:(

If you read the second paragraph of the article, apparently he doesn't. The guy arguing with Farage says a rule change would be needed

Quote from: The Daily Telegraph
Mr Batten said Robinson would not be admitted to UKIP “in the near future" because it would require changes to the party's rules
