contribution by Tim Worstall You'll have seen that loudmouthed rude man on TV recently: that Nigel Farage. Yes, he's one of us, one of UKIP, the UK Independence Party. Vote for us.

I've been and will continue to be a little too busy to blog properly this weekend, and I'm doing the Blogpower round-up tomorrow. But it's well worth pointing you in the direction of this very interesting post over at the Devil's Kitchen on the situation in the UK Independence Party (UKIP). Tim Worstall has been at the UKIP conference this week, and has posted on some of the more notable developme...

Just received from Tim Worstall in the UKIP Press Office... UKIP is being inundated with calls from voters complaining that UKIP is not on the ballot paper. Voting has only been going on for three hours and already hundreds are calling the UK Independence Party to complain that they were not able to vote for the party. The problem is that Returning Officers have been folding the ballot papers. The...

Tim Worstall - back in harness after running for office as a UKIP MEP - writes about the Labour government's stated desire to ensure that not a single tract of the UK is without broadband access.

He tries to engage as a reasonable person on this blog, and then goes back to his own blog, hurls abuse and waits for his sycophan...

Today is June the 4th, UK Independence Day. Here are your instructions for tomorrow: Take your voting card to your local polling station Exchange your voting card for a ballot paper Find the box with UK Independence Party written next to it Put a cross in the box If you encounter any canvassers for the LibLabCon, the Greens, Libertas, Jury Team,

There is, however, another reason for not engaging further. I note some of the rather offensive comments on Tim’s blog. I am quite sure neither Dennis or I would allow such ad hominem attacks, all unfounded. But Tim comes from a very different part of the political and, might I say it, social spectrum. Tim

The UK Independence Party has had a makeover. Go to their website and you will find a fetching new logo involving butterflies. Their point is to emphasise independence as a theme: not just the independence of the state, but also the independence of the citizen from the state. It's potentially a very powerful combination.
