Common Sense?

Postby gray_marian » Tue Jun 18, 2013 12:44 pm

A Point of view




Nigel Farage for Prime Minister

This is what he said:
...
"I am the Tory Party's Worst Nightmare. I am a White, Tax-Paying, God
fearing English man. I am a hard working Brit and I work long hours to earn
a living.


I believe in God and the freedom of religion, but I don't push it on others.
I believe in British products and buy them whenever I can.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and not to some governmental
functionary, to share with others who don't work!


I think owning a home doesn't make you a capitalist; it makes you a smart
brit. I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimised, and
does not entitle you to anything. Get over it. Join in with the majority!

I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac, you should do it in English.
I believe there should be no other language option.

I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they
want to.


My heroes are fellow Brits like Freddy Flintoff and Winston Churchill and I
know I've missed a few thousand!!!!!

I don't hate the rich. What I hate is the way they always manage to avoid
paying proper taxes. I don't pity the poor, I just hate the way they are
always moaning that they are hard done by!!


I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time watching or arguing about
it.

I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go back to where you
came from and change your own country!

This is ENGLAND.....We like it the way it is and even more so the way it
was...so stop trying to change it to look like some other socialist country!
If you were born or legally migrated here and don't like it... you are free
to move to any Socialist country that will have you. I believe it is time to
really clean house, starting with the House of Commons, the seat of our
biggest problems.

I want to know where the "Do Gooders" get their money from, and why are they
always part of the problem and not the solution? Can I get an AMEN on that
one?


I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you're breaking the
law, regardless of what race, colour or creed you are. And, no, I don't mind
having my face shown on my driving licence. I think it's good....


I dislike those people trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to their
cause....Get a job and support yourself and your family!

I believe 'illegal' is illegal no matter what the lawyers think!


I believe the Union Jack flag should be allowed to be flown anywhere in the
United Kingdom!

If this makes me a BAD Brit, then yes, I'm a BAD Brit. If you are a BAD Brit
too, please forward this to everyone you know....

We want our country back! My Country.....

I hope this offends all illegal aliens.

My great, great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Boer War.

My grandfather watched and bled as his friends died in World Wars 1&2.

I watched as my friends died in Sierra Leone Bosnia, & Desert Storm.

Our sons and daughters watched & bled as their friends died in Afghanistan
and Iraq.

None of them died for the Afghanistan and Iraq Flag.

Every Briton died for the British flag.

At one high school, foreign students raised a Middle East flag on a school
flag pole. British students took it down.

Guess who was expelled... the students who took it down .

West London high school students were sent home, because they wore T-shirts
with the Union Jack flag printed on them.

What is going on?? What idiots do we have in authority?? Enough is enough.

This message needs to be viewed by every Brit; and every Briton needs to
stand up for Britain.

We've bent over to appease the Brit-haters long enough. I'm taking a stand.

I'm standing up because of the millions who died fighting in wars for this
country, and for the British flag.

And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message. IT IS NOT !

Britons, stop giving away Your RIGHTS !

THIS IS OUR COUNTRY !

This statement DOES NOT mean I'm against immigration !

YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY, welcome to come legally:

1. Get a sponsor !
2. Learn the LANGUAGE, as immigrants have in the past!
3. Live by OUR rules ! Dress as we Britons Do
4. Get a job !
5. Pay YOUR Taxes !

6. No Social Security until you have earned it and paid for it !
7. Find a place to lay your head !

If you don't want to share this for fear of offending someone, then YOU'RE
PART OF THE
PROBLEM !

We've gone so far the other way... bent over backwards not to offend anyone.

WAKE UP BRITAIN !

Well, as I'm sure Bill could have predicted, I do not agree. There are indeed many problems in our country but blaming Jimmy Foreigner is not the answer. I utterly deplore Farage's politics of division and hatred. The politicians who created our problems over mass immigration are the ones to blame and Farage is just another opportunistic Little Englander looking to scapegoat the poorest and most voiceless of our society for the economic crimes of the elite and the bankers.

Utter piffle.. Brilliant word..
Do you really believe Farage came out with that sh***. Whatever else he is he is not a fool.
I believe it was always Johnny Foreigner who got the blame, I met him once he was selling ingins over at Daintober.
I am not sure as I have never really paid that much attention but I dont think Farage is your standard racist, I thouht he was more anti-Europe than anti-foreigner, if so more power to his elbow. :<>

Gizmo, at no point did I say he was a racist.

I do say he is xenophobic though so I'll just add that to my piffle 8)

Sorry GG,

I meant the OP.
I would consider the nonsense in the original post attributed to Farage is verging on the racist.
I dont think Nigel is racist, xenophobic maybe. A fine quality. :lol:

Ha ha Gizmo, sorry I thought you were referring to MY piffle :lol:

I'd say you're right. This piffle was indeed going the rounds years ago except it was supposed to be said by some Australian dude about his country. So I guess then it's not genuine and just a way to incite more hatred :(

From Bob Katter

"I am the Labor Party's Worst Nightmare. I am a White, Conservative, Tax-Paying, God fearing Australian. I am a hard working Australian and I work long hours to earn a living.

I believe in God and the freedom of religion, but I don't push it on others. I drive Australian-made cars, and I believe in Australian products and buy them whenever I can.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and not some bloody governmental functionary, Labor/Greens or Liberal, that wants to share it with others who don't work!

I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!

I think owning a home doesn't make you a capitalist; it makes you a smart Australian. I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to anything. Get over it!

I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac or any other item, you should do it in English. I believe there should be no other language option.

I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to.

My heroes are, fellow Australians like Don Bradman, Steve Waugh, Alan Langer, Slim Dusty, Fred Hollows and the Aussie scientists who invented the bionic ear – missed a few I know. I don't hate the rich, but hate the way they always find ways to pay less taxes. I don't pity the poor, I hate the way they are always crying that they are hard done by!!

I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time watching or arguing about it.

I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go back to where you came from and change your own country!

This is AUSTRALIA....We like it the way it is and more so the way it was...so stop trying to change it to look like some other socialist country! If you were born or legally migrated here and don't like it... you are free to move to any Socialist country that will have you. (And take Julie Gillard and her group with you.) I believe it is time to really clean house, starting with the Lodge, the seat of our biggest problems.

I want to know exactly, where the "Do Gooder's" get their money from, and why are they always part of the problem and not the solution?

Can I get an AMEN on that one?

I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you're breaking the law, regardless of what race, color or creed you are, but not just because you happen to be an illegal alien and scream that they are "RACISTS PIGS". And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my driver's license. I think it's good....

I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to their cause....Get a job and do your part to support yourself and your family!

I believe that it doesn't take all the intellectuals to raise a child, it takes two parents....

I believe 'illegal' is illegal no matter what the lawyers think!

I believe the Australian flag should be the only ones allowed to be flown in Australia !

If this makes me a BAD Australian, then yes, I'm a BAD Australian. If you are a BAD Australian too, please forward this to everyone you know....

My great, great, great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Boer War. My grandfather watched and bled as his friends died in World Wars 1&2. My grandfather watched as his friends & brothers died in the Depression of 32. My father watched as his friends died in Korea. I watched as my friends died in Vietnam, East Timor & Desert Storm. Our son's and daughters watched & bled as their friends died in Afghanistan and Iraq . None of them died for the Afghanistan and Iraq Flag. Every Australian died for the Australian flag.

At a Victorian high school foreign students raised a Middle East flag on a school flag pole. Australian students took it down. Guess who was expelled...the students who took it down.

I Am the Democratic, Republican Liberal-Progressive's Worst Nightmare.
I am a White, Conservative, Tax-Paying, American Veteran, Gun Owning Biker. That's me!
I am a Master Mason. I work hard and long hours with my hands to earn a living.

I believe in God and the freedom of religion, but I don't push it on others..
I ride Harley Davidson Motorcycles, and drive American-made cars, and I believe in
American products and buy them whenever I can.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and not some liberal governmental functionary,
Democratic or Republican, that wants to share it with others who don't work!

I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!

I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer; it makes you a smart American.

I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and does not entitle you to
anything. Get over it!

I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac or any other item, you should do it in English.

I believe there should be no other language option.

I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and where they want to.

My heroes are Malcolm Forbes, Bill Gates, John Wayne, Babe Ruth, Roy Rogers, and Willie G. Davidson, who makes the awesome Harley Davidson Motorcycles.

I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.

I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time watching or arguing about it.

I've never owned a slave, nor was I a slave. I haven't burned any witches or been persecuted
by the Turks, and neither have you!

I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go back to where you came from and
change your own country!

This is AMERICA ...We like it the way it is and more so the way it was...so stop trying to
change it to look like Russia or China, or some other socialist country!

If you were born here and don't like it...you are free to move to any Socialist country that will
have you. I believe it is time to really clean house, starting with the White House, the seat
of our biggest problems.

I want to know which church is it, exactly, where the Reverend Jesse Jackson preaches,
where he gets his money, and why he is always part of the problem and not the solution?

Can I get an AMEN on that one?

I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you're breaking the law, regardless of
what color you are, but not just because you happen to ride a bike.

And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my driver's license. I think it's good....
And I'm proud that 'God' is written on my money..

I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I don't want you deciding who
should be running the most powerful nation in the world for the next four years.

I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell me stuff or trying to guilt me
into making 'donations' to their cause....Get a job and do your part to support yourself and
your family!

I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents....

I believe 'illegal' is illegal no matter what the lawyers think!

I believe the American flag should be the only one allowed in AMERICA !

If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.

If you are a BAD American too, please forward this to everyone you know...

We want our country back!

My Country.....I hope this offends all illegal aliens.

My great, great, great, great grandfather watched and bled as his friends died in the Revolution
& the War of 1812.
My great, great, great grandfather watched as his friends died in the Mexican American War.
My great, great grandfather watched as his friends & brothers died in the Civil War.

My grandfather watched as his friends died in WW I.
My father watched as his friends died in WW II.
I watched as my friends died in Vietnam, Panama & Desert Storm.
My son watched & bled as his friends died in Afghanistan and Iraq .
None of them died for the Mexican or any other flag.
Every one of them died for the American flag, our beloved Stars and Stripes.

Texas high school students raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole,
other students took it down. Guess who was expelled...the students who took it down.

California high school students were sent home on Cinco de Mayo, because they wore
T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.

Enough is enough This message needs to be viewed by every American; and every American needs to stand up for America .
We've bent over to appease the America-haters long enough. I'm taking a stand.

If you agree, stand up with me and forward to everyone in your address book!!

Gray_marian - you might want to send a follow-up email to everyone you forwarded it to and inform them that dear old Nigel didn't say any such thing, and you've been hoaxed! Alternatively, you can choose to ignore the fact and perpetuate the myth :?

I have been travelling hence my delay in responding......Obviously had I known it was a hoax I never would have posted.
My apologies, especially to you Bill, it certainly was not my intention to mislead anyone........

As to sya & iiii take a hike, I do not rate what either of you two have to say about anything after your previous responses to me. I'm amazed you even read my post.
