Veritas Party

breadmonkey

I'm watching an interview with Kilroy on Sky News and I have to say that if I lived in England, I would vote for this party.

He's only saying what everyone else is thinking IMO

A Dub in Glasgo

Was that his election broadcast I saw on the TV just now?

Edit: It was the BNP broadcast that was just on... same stuff though from veritas.

· To the website of our newest political party, where we begin to get a sense of the "totally different approach" its leader promises. The top story on veritasparty.co.uk cites a Daily Mail poll which asks: "Would you vote for Robert Kilroy-Silk's Veritas party?" "Currently," reveals the site excitedly, "the findings are that 32% say they would vote for Veritas. The latest YouGov poll ... is as follows: Labour 42%, Conservative 30%, Lib Dems 21%, Others 7%. Assuming that Veritas were to take its votes equally from all parties," it goes on - but no, we're awfully sorry, we must have misread. Might we have that again? "Assuming that Veritas were to take its votes equally from all parties, then Veritas would top the polls." Jesus wept. "The revised figures would be: Veritas 32%, Labour 28.56%, Conservatives 20.4%, Lib Dems 14.28%, Others 4.76%." You've obviously got a fantastically clever psephologist on board, says the Diary's Simon Goodley when he calls party HQ. Now, given you're rather light on members, can we expect whoever came up with this to take the role of chancellor when you form the inevitable government in May? "I'll get back to you," says spokesman Patrick Eston. Well, no hurry.

Well if the guy who does the economic policy uses the same logic as the bloke who does the polling, I'm reversing my move to london.......

Ah Guardian diary, it doth ease the pain.

Poor Robert Kilroy-Silk, didn't get his own way while part of UKIP so started his own gang. Went to Europe for a while and made a gimp of himself. Hung out with the UK Travellers (and a Channel 4 film crew) for a week to convince himself of his own righteousness and to prove how he's not going to flip-flop on his policies/opinions.... then went home to his big house in the country (no caravans on his land, thank you very much) paid for with BBC (ie, UK TV License payers) money.

If you get a chance check out this site to find out some of the things Mr. Kilroy-Silk has said about certain races (including the Irish):

http://bfewster.members.gn.apc.org/euro/kilroy.htm

"In 1992 the Daily Express apologised for printing a Kilroy column which described Ireland as a country peopled by peasants, priests and pixies. (9 Nov 1992.) He has been wary of going public on the subject ever since, though a couple of years ago his Sunday Express column included a swipe at "no-mark countries such as Belgium and Ireland" (28 Jul 2002) - "no-mark" being a favourite Kilroy expression of contempt."



Does anyone remember Screaming Lord Such and the Monster Raving Looney Party? At least with him everyone knew he was taking the piss!

Kilroy is an absolute idiot and he was shown up for what he is when he was a member of UKIP

No he has great hair and tan, if you actually listen to what he says he's an incoherant xenophobic moron.
