THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Three NEC members resigned from UKIP

Pro-Farage/Woolfe UKIP source: There will be an Extraordinary General Meeting and the NEC will be abolished.

This little example of ''falling out', together with quite mysterious happenings when Farage was due to visit my home town and speak in Northampton market square about Brexit, is putting me off certain elements of this party.

I would guess there is going to be a split too. Half the party seem to be complete weirdos.

Farage ducked out of doing this speaking thingy at the last minute on the day and instead, went off to give a TV agency interview at an 'out of town pub' - but, as we stood waiting in the market square, could we hell as like easily find out from anyone any of the details on this 'instant new venue':
ie. where is it exactly?; which pub?; is he going to publicly speak at this new pub?; why all the secrecy?; why is he not going to speak as planned and as advertised here today in Northampton?; why don't any of you UKIP guys know what the hell is going on?; this is all a bit weird, don't you think?; etc,etc.

Steven Woolfe's removal from the list of 'Leaders to Vote For', is only because of a minor technicality, IMHO.

Woolfe's exclusion in such a manner, merely shows up what childishness and bad feeling must be highly prevalent inside the party and what a nasty organisation it actually is.

My wife and I have now gone right off UKIP.

Nigel Farage is the ONLY leader that will go on any public outings and
take any questions, unlike the leaders of other parties who stage their
walkabouts to accommodate for any fcuk ups and to look good in the media..

Give some dogs an inch and they take a mile! Here's an example of typical trouble with a dog and 'credit':

grannyboy - 03 Aug 2016 14:09 - 72941 of 81564

'My wife and I have now gone right off UKIP'

What just because of the removal of Steven Woolf from the ballot?
because there has been worst situations..ie like the election of Neil
Hamilton, who Nigel Farage despises, and for which i'm in agreement.

Exec,

"I would guess there is going to be a split too. Half the party seem to be complete weirdos."


Only half?

grannyboy - 03 Aug 2016 14:32 - 72943 of 81564

'Only half'

Well in your party, its 100%...Yourself..LOL

Is nothing safe?

Bitcoin exchange hacked and $65m stolen

MaxK - 03 Aug 2016 18:22 - 72945 of 81564

Bitcon is even less "real money" than the stuff they are bailing banks out with.

Is anyone surprised?

MaxK - 03 Aug 2016 18:25 - 72946 of 81564

UKIP tearing itself apart...and without a credible leader (Farage), it's a rebel without a cause.

Fred1new - 03 Aug 2016 18:51 - 72947 of 81564

Farage credible?

Really.

I thought he was a blown tub-thumper of a rabble.

MaxK - 03 Aug 2016 19:17 - 72948 of 81564

But that's you Fred, and at least 52% 0f the population disagree with you.

Not that you would notice stuff like that.

Haystack - 03 Aug 2016 19:48 - 72949 of 81564

Actually just 12% voted UKIP in the last election. That is just 8% of those who could vote

iturama - 03 Aug 2016 20:20 - 72950 of 81564

With that reasoning the Tories had less than 25% of those entitled to vote. Hardly a mandate eh?

MaxK - 03 Aug 2016 20:25 - 72951 of 81564

lol :-)


Haystack - 03 Aug 2016 20:50 - 72952 of 81564

Iturama
But the Tories had the most. No party has had an absolute majority for a very long time.

Haystack - 03 Aug 2016 22:59 - 72953 of 81564

YouGov national poll.

CON 42% LAB 28% UKIP 12% LDEM 8%

jimmy b - 04 Aug 2016 08:13 - 72954 of 81564

iturama - 04 Aug 2016 08:15 - 72955 of 81564

Is that a poll of all the people who are entitled to vote or just those that voted in the 2015 election? Otherwise how to explain that UKIP has 12% when by the your logic, it has no more than 8% of those that can vote... ?
