Mame Biram Diouf Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 ukips main angle is immigration and tapping in to those concerned by immigration... what people are usually concerned about immigration: Racists People on low paid jobs Xenophobes People who believe the scare mongering in the right wing tabloids I would consider the majority of those groups intellectually lacking (racists/xenophobes will have there exceptions) 59% of the country is 'concerned' by immigration according to this from 5 years ago http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/legacy/thereporters/markeaston/2011/02/why_are_we_so_concerned_about_im.html your assumptions are incorrect btw 1000 or so asked out of 60 million people lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dub Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 Green leader Natalie Bennett backs cultural boycott of Israel http://www.thejc.com/news/uk-news/134303/green-leader-natalie-bennett-backs-cultural-boycott-israel I definitely think the west should have acted against Israel in some form of sanctions but I don't think she's going to gain favour or much agreement in 'a boycott of artists, musicians and academics' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Martinez Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 Dub don't be silly chap Realise where you're reading that article and why the boycott was defined like that A more accurate description goes like.. The campaign asks individuals, organisations, councils and governments to refuse to deal with companies and institutions identified as facilitating Israel's military capacity, human rights abuses or illegal settlement activity.

dub Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 I did have trouble finding a quote from the Greens that specifically spoke of a cultural boycott, I just assumed a publication wouldn't specify "artists, musicians and academics" without having a valid reference. Probably just being naïve in my hungover state. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current Coalition would remain in power. I think Lib Dems would be more comfortable in partnership with Labour. They probably would have been in 2010 but Labour didn't want to concede too much power. Like a bunch of policies that have come through with a Lib Dem stamp on have been pretty 'left'. Arguably more left than anything Labour has proposed. Not completely sure why they're considered more central, maybe because they aim to spend less?
