So is Nigel still actively campaigning against immigration since we left the EU. He doesn't appear anywhere? I'm sure you've had your quota of reporting for this year.  He's always compaigning for the UK. He was never against immigration, he wants a controlled system which leads to a vastly reduced number of useless Hamas supporter types.
I've never used the report feature.
Yes I agree he wanted controlled immigration, I just don't see anything from him since Brexit. I didn't mean you use the report feature, I meant the number of times you've been reported. |

Wasn't Nige recently filmed manning a one-man observation post somewhere on the South Coast? I agree he would probably have been more useful waving placards in the arrivals hall at Heathrow but big things can from little acorns grow. Yes they all seem to focus on those trying to sneak in, ignoring the millions coming through the front door. I find it strange to be on the same page as you Dan. I even agree that migration from the EU if preferable because laws, culture, education, expectation is far closer to that of the UK. |

Why would I be reported a number of times? Just because you may smear people and lie about them doesn't make it true.

Before Farage became the Big Kahuna UKIP policy called for a five-year moratorium on all immigration. Once he was leader the policy was quietly dropped and a 'level playing field' was called for in its place.
He has never been against immigration except when the migrants came from the EU.

He talks about it a lot, mostly in regards to the failure by the Westminster establishment. He's also accused of pushing the Tories on the issue with a political comeback, but as we can see by immigration figures the Tories have failed to deliver after a lot of talk. Farage knew it, too:
I agree Farage did tame the UKIP's policies, but when it came to the UKIP's primary policy he was a success.

Personally I don't think he was against migrants from anywhere, it was just a convenient way to stir up the mob and get us out of the EU. What with all their new regulations on money laundering and money passports. |

It's rather facile to pile all the blame on the Blairites, as Andrew Roberts pointed out in Eminent Churchillians, the rot had set in decades earlier: The record shows that Churchill, for a variety of reasons, took no effective action to staunch the flow, nor did his successor Eden and neither did his successor, Macmillan, at least until very late in the day. surely the answer to that is that most of those immigrants being migrants from our empire held passports barely different to the one given to me in 1960, aged three, allowing me to travel with either my mother or my father where the far more common situation, of being a mere name in one’s father’s passport, required my father to be travelling. My passport declared me a British Subject, a Citizen of the United Kingdom and its Colonies. Same as the one issued to a chap called Harry Webb. Same as the one issued to every Indian who went to Uganda to administer it for King George. The immigrants allowed in to Britain in those days were here to do work that needed doing but for which tbe manpower lay dead in war graves or rotting in battlefields unburied |
