    The Party that just keeps on giving. More UKIP clangers.

    Can we have a sticky to put all the UKIP silliness in?

        Andrew Spalis, distribution operative at door-to-door distribution firm Fast Leaflet, told the Huffington Post UK that the company has been carrying out work for Ukip and that many of its employees are from Latvia, as well as other parts of Eastern Europe. He said that the firm had "only yesterday" carried out leafleting for the party.
        The Firm's boss hired Eastern Europeans and then accused UKIP of Hypocrisy?

        Of course UKIP could have hired direct or imposed an illegal 'No Foreigners' clause on the agency.


        not sure there is a story here?

          There's a difference between not letting foreigners in in order to protect jobs, and refusing to give a job to those that are already here (not that I am in favour of either).

            Vote UPIP (The Underpaid People’s Independence Party)

            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.
