So pedantic, picking out a quote that's not perfect; even if the message is clearly the same. Picking out a newspaper article, from a medium from which so many get their news / information; along with many others. You're like the little Swiss Watch maker, dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's; working to a thousandth of a millimeter, making sure every little thing is perfect...........but ask Him what the TIME is and He NEVER knows.


Oh dear. I think the Swiss Watch here is going to be the source that tells the correct time, as opposed to some broken Mickey Mouse watch given away free with the Daily Express.
It's quite ironic that Kippers often claim the "political establishment" are "out of touch" with reality. Yet "reality" to Kippers usually seems to comprise of an odd mix of fear, paranoia, tabloid headlines, and conspiracy theories.

I wonder if UKIP will end up the same way as the Social Democrats and the Gang of Four? They were going to take the country by storm to hear them talk.

 


They effectively became the Lib Dems. I think "Cleggmania" just prior to the 2010 election is perhaps more comparable. Problem for ukip is that a significantly large proportion of their voter base are going to be worm food or wind-up in nursing homes within the next 15 years - Demographics are just not on their side.
