Default Thus spake a kipper...

Actually, I was rather confused by their stance on Europe as the only
place they have any clout is in the ineffectual Eu Parliament, and if they
vote out they will lose their jobs.


That does show that they are prepared to put their jobs on the line tho.

Unusual for politicians.

I've tended to think kippers are evil or mad. This falls into the mad
variety.

A 'Vote to leave' leaflet posted through my door from Gerard Batten, UKIP
MEP for London.

Under 'how much does EU membership cost' :-

'The total combined cost (direct and indirect) have been calculated as
about £190 billion per annum'

That is approximately how much the UK government gets in income tax
revenue per year.

So I've got a new slogan for UKIP.

Vote to leave the EU, and UKIP will abolish income tax.

You just know it makes sense...
