Britain’s premier racist politician has argued that his lack of popularity in London is due to its large proportion of immigrants.
“The fact is that the inner ring of London is very difficult for anybody but Labour. It’s the only part of England in which the Labour vote continues to rise,” he told BBC radio.
“The Labour vote falls everywhere but rises in central London. The reason for that is a lot of newcomers with new passports vote Labour.”
He’s spot on. UKIP’s waning popularity in the capital is due to its multicultural demographic. A demographic which accepts and embraces people no matter where they’re from, even northerners. The fear mongering ‘us and them’ tactic doesn’t work on a city which has met ‘them’ and actually quite likes what they bring to the mix.
But UKIP don’t like that, so he’s decided that the only explanation for their failure is the foreigners drowning out everyone else’s voice.
He’s arguing, basically, that if we get rid of all the immigrants and everyone who isn’t a massive racist, then his party would fare much better in the polls. Which is a suggestion that would work brilliantly if it didn’t leave Britain with a population of about 12.
This isn’t Farage’s first racist tirade. The UKIP leader has previously stated that parts of Britain were now “unrecognisable” and “like a foreign land”. He clearly hasn’t walked down a high-street on a Friday night recently.
He needn’t worry though, the proliferation of sweaty people in football t-shirts, urinating into cans and hurling them at police officers is still as high as it ever was. The country is still as grim as always and no amount of colourful Indian clothing or Mediterranean food which actually tastes nice is going to stop us.
In Farage’s keynote speech at UKIP’s autumn conference, he told his audience that the party and its supporters “want our country back”. You can have it back, and the rest of us will sit over here drinking tea and eating pizza with all the wonderful things which are only possible because Britain is more than just British.
