patentdragonThe European Election results are finally coming in, and as each count is announced, the whole country must be gritting their teeth, fearing the announcement of the first British Nazi Party success
One thing that worries me, even more; scanning through the Twitter posts on this nasty little bunch of racists, every once in a while I see things like "BNP = Scum, UKIP = Scum with better PR". Of course, internet users aren't always the smartest people, or even do the slightest research before venting their digital spleens, but I did my research, and as a result, I voted for the UK Independence Party...
This just in... Hull now has a Nazi MEP. Fucking idiots.
...back to what I was saying: Now, the mainstream media have not, for one moment, suggested that UKIP are "Nazi-Lite", as some have been Tweeting. None of the UKIP successes have been greeted with the same disgust as the Nazi Party, or actually been greeted with any response at all, so I'm discounting the Tweets as ill-informed, until I receive information to the contrary.
If UKIP do turn out to be racists, they have hijacked my vote, and I will make them pay.
*sighs* I'm in no mood to continue with this right now. If I believed in religion, I'd be praying that there are no more "protest votes" of this kind...
