well, he's off on one again. good old Chuka - the gift that keeps on giving.:D
Ukip has been condemned as 'absolutely vile' by Labour rising star Chuka Umunna, who accused Nigel Farage of trying to blame foreigners for all of Britain's problems.
In his most outspoken attack yet, Mr Umunna said Ukip was 'sowing the seeds of division' by accusing 'that bunch over there' of being responsible for a shortage of housing, GP appointments and well-paid jobs.

Whatever your opinions on UKIP are (and mine are varied), UKIP have definitely shaken up the established parties, (for better in my opinion), as they have now forced the main parties into discussing the 'taboo' subjects' they used to ignore.

As opposed to those who blame the conservatives and/or mrs Thatcher for all Britains problems. Its just petty party politics and we'd all be better off without it.
I think a quick read of the comments section below the report gives one a 'flavour' of exactly what we are dealing with here.
For example,
;-)
Give the UK back to the British? Where is that sentiment when talking about Northern Ireland and a united Ireland?
Shhhh, ;-)
Huh
As far as I can see, the evidence on this forum proves the opposite, that it's the left wing that are intent on the absolutely vile destruction of this country.
Doesn't seem entirely unreasonable given the antics of many of their membership.
And the last point is simply factually correct.
Eh? No evidence for that whatsoever.
See how easy it is to make stupid comments?
Pretending to support the views of the less well off in society whilst living a champaign socialist lifestyle.
The Labour party would be better off without Politicians like you.
which point?
that foreigners are to blame for all of britains problems, or that farage has blamed all foreigners for britains problems?
A perfect summing up of Farage if you drop the word "socialist".
When did he do that then?
Labours still in denial for sure, they haven't changed at all.
Their world ends when they reach the M25.
BTW: He forgot to mention school places due to the baby boom with immigrant mothers.
Chukka is about as man of the people as Tony Blair was.
Not many convictions as a politician but has lots to say.
How i weep when i see the likes of the Labour front bench now,and think of the likes of Barbara Castle,Tony Benn, although people may have disagreed with them,they were far more then soundbite politicians. Unlike ER Chukka,who is as far removed from the parties core vote as you could possibly get,:(
Ah sorry - you're right. He didn't blame all foreigners. He made an allowance for his German wife, who, as his secretary, is apparently doing a job that no British person is qualified to do, so she is actually an asset to the country.
Sorry for the confusion.
Meanwhile, on a daily basis on this forum, UKIP supporters continue to rail against pretty much every section of society that they deem to be unrepresentative of their sepia-hued Shire-like vision of Britain. Just today in another thread we've seen a UKIP supporter moaning about 'riff raff in sneakers spoiling a night on the town' for some people. So we can seemingly add trainer-wearing riff raff to the list of people that are contributing to societies ills.
THAT is the very definition of divisiveness, THAT is the very essence of right wing populism and THAT is the strategy of UKIP.
Maybe he should make the case for why he's right and their wrong instead of just saying he can't stand them.
Watch out though... if they've already got onto sneakers it's only a matter of time before they turn on odd socks ;-)
yeah, i want to know that as well. a link would be nice.
this does not answer the above.
