UKIP that is, over the European Arrest Warrant. The truly Kafkaesque bit about it is this: Foreigners, as a flight risk, are often refused bail and pretrial detention in some European jurisdictions can last years. Youi’re denied bail because you’re a flight risk….but the very existence of the EAW means that you’re not a

Videos of UKIP Leader Nigel Farage in full flight as he releases yet another Farage Barrage on a visiting dignitary along for a day out have been viewed by millions of people on YouTube, not only in Europe, but around the world.

It seems that Bob Spink no longer describes himself as a UKIP MP. Indeed, he says he has never been a member of the party, according to THIS article in his local Essex newspaper. How very strange. Do you think anyone has told UKIP? They list him on their website as a UKIP MP.
