Just when I think it impossible that the world, and the government, can reach any lower levels of idiocy, I find myself doing a massive facepalm at this… The BNP’s new membership rules “indirectly” discriminate against black and Asian people, the UK equalities watchdog has told...

Somebody please kick me in the shin to make me feel better! A transaction tax on banks would raise as much as $400bn a year (£250bn; 291.2bn euros), campaigners have said. Supporters say money raised could help protect public services and jobs, fight poverty and tackle climate change. The campaign...

Nigel Farage on usual fine form telling a little fable to the Strasbourg Plenery…

One of the underlying philosophies of Cameroonism is, as we know, paternalism. Cameron’s Conservative party is nwo more akin to centre-right parties ont he European continent in the face of Labour’s centre-left social democratic positioning. Neither is desirable, and here is just one example...

From ConservtiveHome this stuck out… Taunton Lyngford ward, Taunton Deane Lib Dem – 390 (44%, -1) Con – 253 (28%, no change) Lab – 190 (21%, -6) UKIP – 59 (7%, +7) Lib Dem hold The implication is that UKIP’s entry into the ‘market’ in this ward stole votes...

Serious Quitters’ Arcade Sponsored Post I have just been notified of this new site called "Serious Quitters Arcade" – www.quittersarcade.com – which has taken the classic arcade games from the 1980’s, which all people old enough (older than me, i might add), remember...

More in despair than anger, I see UKIP Leader Lord Pearson has called for the Burka to be banned in Britain. The UK Independence Party is to call for a ban on the burka and the niqab — the Islamic cloak that covers women from head to toe and the mask that conceals most of the face — claiming they...

This story caught my eye this afternoon. I have to say I fully support the sentiments of the common sense member of the public… Police officers filmed using riot shields to sledge down a snowy hill while on duty have been reprimanded. Mr Latham said they were only there for a few minutes and praised...

Just brace!

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? and again Why? Obligatory quotas for the number of women put forward for selection as a parliamentary candidate by each political party have been proposed. A cross-party conference chaired by Speaker John Bercow, acknowledged that its suggestion would be controversial. Controversial?...

Yes, you heard me. Not a statement of fact by me, but a response to an article in the guardian by Timothy Kirkhope MEP. He talks, perfectly legitimately and correctly, as far as it goes that the Tory move out of the EPP into the ECR has not diminished, but has enhanced, their influence. This is all fine...

If the Times is to be believed it would seem Cameron is running scared of a certain Mr Nigel Farage… Mr Bercow — who, despite being a Conservative, owed his victory to a well-organised campaign by Labour MPs — has repaired relations with Mr Cameron. The Tory leader has made clear to party members...

Apparently some bright spark in our federal government (that’s the EU, by the way) has come up with this blinding idea… Europe is making moves to give British MEPs the ‘right’ to sit in the House of Commons at certain times in the year. I told you it was a blinder. But, er, why,...

Wishing all Independence Home readers a very merry Christmas, wherever you are, and a prosperous new year!

Courtesy of UKIP Liverpool, some digging seems to have uncovered the people behind the anti-UKIP website…

This is just embarrassing. More embarrassing than Sion Simon MP doing his hideous attempt at humour. This is the nativity story as told by…Nick Griffin. Notice him stroking his cat like some friendly evil villain with shocking story telling abilities. No doubt he has something to say about the...
