neems 2,406 Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 I'm glad Nuttall isn't standing,he's not a likable person,he constantly argues with or shouts over anyone who interviews him and his voice/accent doesn't exactly inspire trust from the public He'd probably take away more labour voters than the other candidates,but on the whole they're both better than him,Woolfe seems the more charismatic which will be the deciding factor imo.

Good to get input from someone that actually knows something about the candidates Can see what you mean about Nuttall, I suppose it comes down to who they're trying to target. I have seen Woolfe on QT etc a couple of times and he does seem a good public speaker. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BGD 6,385 Posted July 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 is there anything in ukip policies that could ever sway you to consider voting for them BGD ? beings as labour are nearly dead n buried I'd hope UKIP wouldn't change enough to make me want to vote for them, those that agree with their current principles deserve to have a party that represents them If Corbyn does lose the Leadership Election (doubtful but anything is possible) and the destruction of the Labour Party continues I'll just vote and campaign for TUSC or some other small left wing party that represents my views. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BGD 6,385 Posted July 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 Looks like Steven Woolfe might be excluded from the election because he got his nomination papers in late, this is after it had already come out that he might be excluded because he had let his membership lapse. What a shambles. http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/ukip-steven-woolfe-leader-nomination_uk_579e07c1e4b0459aae5d9174 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WILF 44,196 Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 As soon as the likes of Hamilton etc started joining and getting parachuted into positions I am afraid UKIP lost me a bit.......I still rate Farage as the best man in politics (until he retired of course) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ok then I'd rather see 500,000+ members paying dues every month and taking part in picking the new leader than 50,000 personally. Edited July 31, 2016 by BGD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
