Survation poll for The Mail on Sunday published last month.
Again, Frank Davis has inspired me to put fingers to keyboard, this time with his post about UKIP being a “state of mind“.
When David Cameron begs Labour, LibDem and Green supporters in Rochester and Strood to vote Tory to stop UKIP in this week’s by-election in which the UKIP candidate, former Tory MP, Mark Reckless is expected to retake for his new party, you know the Establishment are fighting for their lives now and that the LibLabCon truly is one party.
Maybe it’s an old joke, but somebody commented,
Desperate Dave reduced to begging for LibLabGreen votes to “stop UKIP”. Somebody should break the news to him that Eton Mess is supposed to be a dessert and not a state of mind!
It doesn’t take a rocket scientist in a sexist shirt to explain the reasons for UKIP’s success. Like Frank, once a Liberal and me, once a Labour voter (how I winced typing that), we discovered that we are actually not “progressive” or statist because we value freedom more.
From his quote from the source of his inspiration,
No easy portrait of an average ‘Kipper’ can be drawn. It is the ability of the current mood to unite seemingly disparate groups in support of Ukip that has the established political class perplexed.
From ‘Animal Farm’,
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.
The LibLabCon party doesn’t ‘do’ logic or truth. They are “perplexed” because they have been fooling the people for so long that they have addled their own brains. If some publicly-funded ‘charity’ tells them that two plus two equals 124 then they’ll accept it and demand that we all accept it too or we have arithmophobia (the fear of numbers) and must be re-educated. Schools must teach that “2 + 2 = 124″. Bakers must decorate cakes with “2 + 2 = 124″ or appear in court. We must all celebrate this new arithmetic because the scientists have reached a consensus, like passive smoking is dangerous and climate change will kill us unless we start living like eighth century peasants.
That said, the ones at the top will always know that 2 + 2 =4 just like they know that climate change is largely natural, that SHS is of no consequence, that ‘gay marriage’ is a ridiculous concept, etc.
So, here we have David “Vote UKIP, get Labour” Cameron begging all the other voters, who can’t stand him or his party, to vote for his candidate in this safe Tory seat because the last thing any of the mainstream want to do is risk stopping the cycle of social destruction that, for example, Annabelle describes, above.
It is telling that UKIP’s support is disproportionately from people over forty: those who can remember when this country was a better place to live in, friendlier, more free, more easy-going with fewer regulations and the feel of home, not as part of a grand social re-engineering experiment by demented professors in blood-stained lab coats.
Unfortunately, the younger generations cannot make that comparison from experience, having been mollycoddled from birth, both by overprotective parents and the State. And brainwashed by the media and in schools that everything which carries the ‘equality’, ‘diversity’ or ‘human rights’ label must be virtuous and those who oppose them are dinosaurs, out of touch with reality and plain nasty. They are probably more likely to favour the EU and global government over the nation state because they think it will banish wars and protect the environment. They believe that the sort of people who hold a conference – only to then kick out the public and press – to discuss a global tax which would hugely increase tobacco prices, can be trusted to treat them fairly.
Ironically, we seemed to be a more tolerant country decades ago, before the ‘equality’ brigade started stirring the melting pot. Hardly surprising, as their intention was division. dehumanisation and demoralisation to force our society to collapse under the pressure.
I probably voted tactically in half the elections before turning to UKIP. When I lived in Tory Harrow, for example, I used to vote Lib Dem to try to oust the Tories, to no avail. If I was still a Labour voter and living in Rochester and Strood, I think I would be voting for UKIP to help give the Tories a good drubbing.
But desperate times call for desperate measures and Desperate Dan Dave is making his pathetic plea to try to save the illusions of ‘democracy’ and ‘equality’ and to realise his treasonous dream of a united Europe and a top job therein.
Presumably, as long as our freedoms continue to fly out the window and our country disappears from under us, UKIP will keep on growing and growing and that includes the young, who aren’t as controlled as the government would have liked.
