Ukip leader will speak at CPAC summit where plastic fetuses are handed out by anti-abortion activists.
Nigel Farage will speak alongside some of the most extreme conservatives in US politics
Nigel Farage will speak alongside Sarah Palin and some of America's most extreme Right-wing conservatives at a conference in Washington next week.
The Ukip leader will share a stage with a host of gun activists, Tea Party leaders and anti-abortion campaigners at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).
Visitors to the summit are sometimes handed plastic fetuses by Evangelical Christian activists as a symbol of their opposition to abortion, while some Tea Party supporters walk the halls in uniforms from the 18th-century American Revolutionary War....

UKIP really stands for something while the Tories pretend to be conservative. UKIP wants to reform the corrupt NHS health care system and above all get the UK out from under the EU and its rules allowing unrestricted importation of cheap labor into the UK.....
LIKE SARAH PALIN UKIP IS AGAINST THE COLLUSION OF GOVERNMENT AND BUSINESS......
Sarah Palin is not for socialism.
What party in the UK doesn’t support socialized medicine?
As I said, they’re not as conservative as the GOP in some areas, but they are moreso in others. (And immigration is the most important issue facing the GOP right now, as it is not only an existential one for conservatives, it is one that the party elite have already sold out on.)
Anyway, some more UKIP positions:
No tax on the minimum wage.
• Enrol unemployed welfare claimants onto community schemes or retraining workfare programmes.
• Scrap HS2, all green taxes and wind turbine subsidies.
• Develop shale gas to reduce energy bills and free us from dependence on foreign oil and gas - place the tax revenues into a British Sovereign Wealth Fund.
• UKIP will abolish inheritance tax. Inheritance tax brings in under £4bn - less than a third of what we spend on foreign aid. The super-rich avoid it, while modest property owners get caught by it. It hits people during a time of grief and UKIP will budget in its 2015 spending plans to completely abolish this unfair death tax.
• Make cuts to foreign aid that are real and rigorous.
• Make sentences mean what they say.
• No votes for prisoners - that’s what losing your liberty means.
• Make welfare a safety net for the needy, not a bed for the lazy. Benefits only available to those who have lived here for over 5 years.
• The law of the land must apply to us all. We oppose any other system of law.
• Teach children positive messages and pride in their country. We want to unite through better integration.
• No to Political Correctness - it stifles free speech.
if I were scott walker I would pay nigel to come hang out with me
they women will swoon and think conservative
And Nigel Farage isn’t either, but they are both fed up with crony capitalists feeding at the trough of the taxpayers.
The bipartisan story of this country in the last 10 years from Medicare Part D to TARP to Obamacare and Amnesty is the bailing out of special interests by the politicians who take their money.....
Nigel Farage used as a Trojan Horse....interesting concept.
I see your point of issue here.
Let`s all sit back and watch what happens, his true colours may show through in this setting.
It’ s the old classic conundrum.
No politician is in it just for you.
Strange bedfellows and all not withstanding.
The lesser of two perceived ‘evils’.
The UK has a quandary
And it best saddle up soon.
Sarah is a survivor. Regardless.
Nicely put, Norm.

“UKIP supports socialized medicine.”
And the Tories don’t? LOL. I didn’t say they were conservative by OUR standards but they are not to the left of the current Conservative party. And those 2 parties are the only choices for right of center voters over there.
Another shock poll says GOP primary voters find opposition to faggot marriage “unacceptable”, I don’t believe that either.
UKIP leaders might be trying to broaden their appeal to leftier voters via campaigning, that doesn’t mean much, that’s marketing. Farange isn’t going to be the Prime Minister but If he were I’d be shocked if he wasn’t better than Cameron. A Tory/UKIP coaltion which in this hard to predict election would certainly be the best semi-realistic outcome would certainly be better than the current situation.
I fear the vote split will lead to disaster.
I would disagree with any positions of theirs on the left, but there’s no denying that the UKIP is the only viable party that wants to save the UK. The Tories (post-Thatcher) ceased to be a “Conservative” party willing to do what was necessary to halt the march to oblivion. They’re certainly not doing it now any more than our hard core big gubmint RINOs in the USA to stop Zero.
