Wow IceBreaker14, wow. That reminded me of the time someone in the comment section of a The Guardian article that compared Daleks with illegal immigrants. It made as much sense as it sounds.

An ex-candidate for the BNP also wrote - “I’ve never understood why so many men have allowed themselves to be brainwashed by the feminazi myth machine into believing that rape is such a serious crime… Rape is simply sex. Women enjoy sex, so rape cannot be such a terrible physical ordeal. To suggest that rape, when conducted without violence, is a serious crime is like suggesting force feeding a woman chocolate cake is a heinous offence.”



...What. I just...what?

Some more quotes from UKIP politicians...

Dr. Julia Gasper - "As for the links between homosexuality and paedophilia, there is so much evidence that even a full-length book could hardly do justice to the subject."

Douglas Denny - “I just wish they would keep their homosexual nature and practices to themselves and stop trying to ram it down my throat telling me they are ‘normal’ when they are not.”

Godfrey Bloom was an MEP for UKIP and he recently quit after ten years as an MEP for Yorkshire and the Humber. He said that Britain should not send aid to "bongo-bongo" land and to defend his claims he wrote, "If I've offended anybody in bongo bongo land, I shall write to the ambassador at the Court of St James's and apologise to him personally."

He also wrote a controversial autobiography where he said, "Weeping and bawling reminiscent of an Arab nation at a state funeral where the culture demands heart on sleeve behaviour on such occasions. That the British had come to this made me deeply embarrassed... I sincerely hope never to see the like of it again." about Princess Diana's funeral.

Another brilliant (as in horrifying) quote from Godfrey Bloom (there are so many) is "No employer with a brain in the right place would employ a young, single, free woman."

Lega Nord is an Italian right-wing party that work with UKIP. Here are some things the leader, Francesco Speroni has said:

- Regarding mass murderer Anders Breivik, that his “ideas are in defense of western civilisation.”

- "Long live the Whites of Europe, long live our identity, our ethnicity, our race… our blue sky, like the eyes of our women. Blue, in a people who want to stay white."

Back to UKIP. Malcolm Everard MacLaren Pearson, Baron Pearson of Rannoch, the leader of UKIP from 2009-10, said in an interview, "The Muslims are breeding ten times faster than us… I don’t know at what point they reach such a number we are no longer able to resist the rest of their demands."

"Well, we’re all human. There is a big difference between that sort of thing and being really bad." - Current leader Nigel Farage talks about cheating.

"Compulsory abortion when the foetus is detected as having Down’s, spina bifida or similar syndrome which, if it is born, could render the child a burden on the state as well as on the family." - A delightful passage from Geoffrey Clark who, luckily, was sacked in 2012.

Not a direct quote but:

An Idaho lawmaker received a brief lesson on female anatomy after asking if a woman can swallow a small camera for doctors to conduct a remote gynecological exam.

The question Monday from Republican Rep. Vito Barbieri.

Dr. Julie Madsen was testifying in opposition to the bill when Barbieri asked the question. Madsen replied that would be impossible because swallowed pills do not end up in the vagina.



So. yeah. doesn't know how the body works, makes laws.
