Well one of the Kippers points is to leave the EU and create stronger ties with the Commonwealth but the other countries in the Commonwealth have said that they would then want open borders with the UK and free trade so in effect you'd just have the same problems with the Commonwealth as you have with the EU...“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.” -

Fair enough the anti-euro party in Germany is quite a civilized and respectful party. Some of their principles are acceptable. If only UKIP and right wing Tories used the same fair play.Originally posted by darmstadt View PostQuite true in some respects but have you noticed that most of these anti-EU parties are right wing, semi-fascist, semi-racist and more than slightly misogynistic?

So what are you proposing? I'm curious. Let's have a honest debate about what Britain should do immediately after leaving the EU, because UKIP haven't addressed this issue yet.Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostThat is assuming everyone who wants the UK to leave the EU subscribes to the idea that at the same time we need to set up closer ties with the commonwealth<Insert idea here> will never be adopted because the politicians are in the pockets of the banks!Comment
