The types of UKIP activists and politicians – Ducksoap
UKIP is a raggedy concoction of the dregs and peripherals of society, according to Ducksoap.
Its activists, councillors, MPs, MEPs, parliamentary and council candidates, and chairpersons of various propaganda subgroups are easily categorised by a finite list of types.
According to the blog, these are:
- Tory careerists
- Bitter old gits
- Slimy young opportunists
- Vaudeville and
- ‘My mate is a dodgy lawyer’
… but you’ll have to visit Ducksoap yourself to see the evidence for these labels!

Quality arguments difficult to come by nowadays, eh?
Not in my experience.
“The (new) Tory video seems to exemplify negative campaigning” I think you said barely hours ago. Mark Twain said, “Always tell the truth, that way you don’t have to remember what you’ve said.” As used by Lord Brian Paddick on the flyleaf of his autobiography – and he should know.
I like UKIPPERS because they wind up so easily.
For example, I posted a comment on over on the news section on Yahoo! suggesting a couple of tunes that might sum up dear ol’ Nige and his acolytes.
The songs chosen were ” I wanna rule the World ” by 10 CC and ” Making plans for Nigel ” by XTC.
Imagine my ( faux ) surprise when the very next message came up asserting that I must be an umarried german. They must all be psychic over at UKIP Towers!
