      Interesting that UKIP is actually more of working-class party than the Labour party.

      Interesting but hardly surprising.

        Also interesting that they changed the scale on the ethnicity table so it looks like conservatives have a good chunk less white people but they in fact have 95% compared to 98% for UKIP.

          That's because Labour is a corporatist party, and the nearest it gets to socialism is ballot rigging
          Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

          No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

            This is true to an extent.
            Certainly when I was at the UKIP national conference last summer it did feel like a SAGA convention.

              If the majority are 'white and retired' then how can they be working class? Its not as if they're exactly working is it?
              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.

                They did working class jobs when they were in employment.

                The UK has difficulty in categorising retired and unemployed people as they aren't economically equal.

                  Well, wasn't I right in using the term "white trash" and "peasant" a couple of days ago?

                    No, it's not interesting either.

                    Nope. Unless you consider hard-working honest people to be white trash.
