Is there anybody that is even slightly surprised by this ?

[davegosling]

I couldn't have named the current UKIP leader anyway!

[ToraToraTora]

"Is there anybody that is even slightly surprised by this ? " - is there anyone except mikey that's even slightly interested? UKIP have been the most successful party in history, their work is done, disband, do not continue with this unedifying pantomime just to give mikey something to write about.

[Baldric]

UKIP 100% achieved what they set out to do, has any other Party matched this record?

[mikey4444]

So if UKIP has been so successful and "done its job", why are they still performing in this never-ending pantomime ?

[Baldric]

Like a Dog with a bone ^^

[Voltage]

why are they still performing in this never-ending pantomime ?
bit like corbyn the red and the labour farcical party!

[mikey4444]

Voltage.....Labour 262 MPs.....UKIP.....0 MPs

Labour has own elections in the past, some by huge majorities and will do again in the future....UKIP never will.

So I can't where your comparison is coming from ?

[ToraToraTora]

mikey:17:49 no idea mikey, as I have said countless times they should disband. These days they serve only to give you something to obsess about.

[Voltage]

well mikey as long as corbyn stays at the helm we are all safe of not getting a labour government in the near future

[mikey4444]

TTT...I will continue to heap ridicule on UKIP as long as they continue to exist....in exactly the same way as you, and others do about Corbyn and the Labour Party.

But of course....that is OK when you do but not when I do it !

[EDDIE51]

As I have said before. Is there a member of UKIP who has not had a turn at being Leader?

[ToraToraTora]

mikey mikey mikey, me old china, seats are not the only measure of political success. Labour has been in government and had countless seats but they have basically achieved nothing since the NHS. UKIP on the other hand have 1 policy and have achieved it with barely entering the commons.

[ToraToraTora]

mikey; "But of course....that is OK when you do but not when I do it ! " - not at all, I support most of what you say, again, I agree they should disband. As for COB I'm surprised that you are happy to still support him given recent events, though you have been shy in commenting on those.

[mikey4444]

TTT...have you any idea why UKIP are still around ?

I meet plenty of people that voted UKIP in the last 2 Elections and most of them tell me that they would vote for them again. But none of them can give a valid answer for so doing !

I hope that UKIP still hang around like a bad smell in a lift, as they worth their weight in comic content.

UKIP would have been the most successful political party of all time if they had set out to achieve their objectives.

They have not.

Their objective was not to force a referendum. It was to get us out of the EU.

We are not going to leave the EU in the way that UKIP wanted.

Hard Brexit will never happen.

This is why UKIP still exists...it's because the party knows that they still have to fight for the type of Brexit that we will have.

Don't let people dictate what you can and cannot post about.

TTT spent the greater part of a month in 2016 telling us about his love for the Trumpinator.

AOG has Lenny Henry, Baroness Lawrence and gay things, so should be free to post on UKIP.

[mikey4444]

SP...I can assure you that nobody will dictate to me about what to post !

But you have hit the nail on the head....when we leave, it will not be the kick-all-foreigners out of Britain way that UKIP intended, and I doubt very much that we will have any kind of hard BREXIT.

[ToraToraTora]

the clue is in the name sp they wanted independence and they have achieved it, end of!

[mikey4444]

TTT...all UKIP did was to scare just-call-me-dave into having the Referendum. He thought, wrongly, that people might vote in huge numbers for UKIP and not the Tories. In the end, UKIP actually lost a seat at Westminster.

It was the Tories that were responsible for us voting to come out of Europe, not a bunch of swivel-eyed loons called UKIP.

Perhaps darling Nigel will make a comeback, now that he has had a well deserved rest, and fire up the afterburners for the Brexit lift off.
