‘Ask the American Indians what happens when you don’t control immigration’ begins the David Challice’s piece on this week’s Trago Mills advert, on the eve of the UKIP grand meeting Euro Election launch at Exeter University this weekend.
We don’t actually know what The Challice is getting at with his statement, and we wouldn’t want to put words in his mouth – they might give his inane chunterings some structure.
The problem is we don’t know what UKIP is about. We don’t know what they’ve done in the European Parliament to further their cause either, and the whole party gives the impression of a blustering uncle who wears a cap while driving badly and keeping all the toffees to himself.
But we may be wrong.
And at least it will be refreshing to see them reject the next round of MEP pay rises to prove they’re not just a party of stuffed shirts and empty words…
As to The Challice, there is maybe no hope. Try to spot the ratiocinative argument in this sentence from the same Trago piece: “It strikes me that this Government is encouraging our pensioners to move abroad, as few of them vote Labour, and replacing them with illegals who are more likely to preserve it in power, thus ensuring the continued destruction of the British economy.”
Poor old Disappointed User, but until the party gets itself a mouthpiece that isn’t risible, we will continue to poke fun.
(Of course they can have space on the site to explain what they’re about – if it fits with our community policy – and we will be calling on all candidates to offer their opinions for the forthcoming Euro and council elections.)
• In the interest of fairness, here’s David Challice talking about the Eurovision Song Contest, which will be taking place next month. But we do wonder why Teignbridge MP and shadow spokesperson on culture and media Richard Younger-Ross didn’t have something better to go on about than Eurovision. We also regret to inform you that Senor Challice was not chosen to replace Terry Wogan, that job went to Graham Norton.

UKIP, a party of conviction or a group of people who are angry at something they can’t quite put their finger on?
