Title: British Asian Ukip youth leader quits 'racist' and 'terrifying' Ukip.

Sanya-Jeet Thandi, who defended her support of Ukip on Channel 4 News, says the party is now appealing to 'stupidity of ignorant anti-immigrant voters for electoral gain'

I think there's a lot more about the UKIP that joe public doesn't understand, me included.
I believe in immigration, it's the rules and benefits handed out that nark me.

Sorry Pete, well, I'm not actually, I have nothing to be sorry for.
I don't want to email Julia again after she told me in our last contact that she would probably answer questions this weekend just gone, or contact me directly if she had login problems. I've heard nowt  :-X 
I'll give Julia another day or so then re-email her, perhaps she's too busy with the up coming elections, shame really  ::)

Not sure whether they are generally racist but they are preying on people's fear of mass immigration to push through right wing policies that will suit bosses and allow ordinary workers' terms and conditions to be eroded

Just a thought.
If I'm registering a protest vote then it stands to reason that in doing so I'm protesting against something. Correct?
So rather than the mainstream parties warning me again the perils of making that protest for fear of extremists getting elected, wouldn't they be better served finding out what I'm protesting about and actually doing something about it?
