UKIP Poster Campaign Attacked As RACIST
First topic message reminder :
22nd April 2014
Anybody bored of that word yet?
Ukip was plunged into a race storm yesterday after unveiling a series of posters campaigning against EU immigration.
The party has paid for billboards across the country to be emblazoned with messages such as: ‘26million people in Europe are looking for work. And whose jobs are they after?’
Another has a picture of a construction worker begging on the street, with the slogan: ‘EU policy at work. British workers are hit hard by unlimited cheap labour.’
The £1.5million campaign is funded by the Yorkshire businessman Paul Sykes, who is a former Tory donor.
All the posters call on voters to ‘Take Back Control of Our Country’ by backing Ukip in European elections on May 22.
But they were immediately condemned by rival politicians.
Mr Farage said:
"Are we going to ruffle a few feathers among the chattering classes? Yes. Are we bothered about that? Not in the slightest.
“Ukip is hugely grateful to Paul Sykes for his magnificent contribution to the great cause of restoring Britain’s ability to be a self-governing nation. The political earthquake I have spoken of is on its way.”

Perhaps that is down to the efforts that people have made here. If others made an effort in their own countries, maybe they could become richer too. Besides, there are a lot of Europeans coming here.

Learn your history, our riches are built on what we took from other countries.

Don't tell me to learn my history. Do you give no credit to the people of this country who built it up? I have nothing to be sorry for - I didn't go anywhere and steal anything, but you insist on bleating on about the past all the time. Think about the present for a change, and what's happening now.

Oh do get a grip, we wouldn't have the same present without what we had done in the past, and no amount of 'building up' would have succeeded without our exploitation of other countries.

Crap. If you want to give away your stuff to an immigrant, do it. I have nothing to be sorry for, and anything I have I've worked for.

No it doesn't, it means dealing with the issues of today instead of bleating about the past. What do you think should happen? Do you think that people from other countries should come here and steal off British people in revenge for some perceived theft from them in the past? Get real. People have chances to build things up for themselves, and if they don't take that chance, it's their own fault.

Well where did that child come from? From parents who knew they had not much to offer a child.

You can roll your eyes all you like, but I can't be doing with extreme lefties like you. You're always looking around to find a "victim", and then looking around for someone else to blame for that person being a "victim".

And that's how some of the ignorance on a big scale across in African countries annoys me, the poor wee bairns are born only to suffer.

Doesn't matter he is dead and that a petrol can was left accessible, let's make the parents feel worse and blame the wee boy entirely himself.

Doesn't matter he is dead and that a petrol can was left accessible, let's make the parents feel worse and blame the wee boy entirely himself.
I didn't blame the boy at all - that's a lie.
You said it was no fault of the employee who left his van with the petrol in it unlocked.
'You said I suppose he will get the blame now,'and you also said wee boys should not be going in the backs of vans, but sometimes some kids just don't understand the consequences of their actions....which adults are or should be aware of.
So some blame should definitely be shared with that bloke and or company he works for,

What the employee done was neglectful and not mindful of his job duties, all jobs carry responsibilities, and securing his van was one of his.
This has contributed in a child's death , I'm sure it must be on that bloke' s conscience, and that must be awful...
But rules are rules and when it comes to the unemployed and underprivileged , you are always bleating about people being responsible.
I don't know what kind of punishment, but it can't go unpunished surely?
What kind of example will that set to others in a similar position with dangerous goods in Vans?

But you think people who work in shops should break the rules and let people off a penny.
I don't think the guy should be punished. He couldn't foresee that some kids would set fire to another kid. I think you're very heartless to hope that he's punished.

..that's probably one of the most bizarre replies I've ever had, and yes, of course I would let a kid buy a sweet if they were a penny or more short and just pay it myself as would most normal people.

Re: UKIP Poster Campaign Attacked As RACIST
and Yes the council worker SHOULD get the blame.....Its callled statutory duty of care..
Health and safety LAW....
3 General duties of employers and self-employed to persons other than their employees.
(1)It shall be the duty of every employer to conduct his undertaking in such a way as to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that persons not in his employment who may be affected thereby are not thereby exposed to risks to their health or safety.
(2)It shall be the duty of every self-employed person to conduct his undertaking in such a way as to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that he and other persons (not being his employees) who may be affected thereby are not thereby exposed to risks to their health or safety.
and THAT..in a "public place" includes children who may well not be aware of the consequences of their actions........
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
he knows petrol is dangerously flammable.....It is therefore HIS DUTY to ensure that no unauthorised person has acces to it...
It is, in law (and in common sense) reasonable to suppose that a person in charge of such a liquid should be able to forsee that theft and misuse is a possibility. It is also patent that "reasonable precautions" are easily instituted. i.e close and lock the doors.
therefor he fails the legal test of "did he act as a "reasonable person" would "
In other words, would someone, of reasonable aptitude and reasonable knowlege for his position have done differently.....
I think "the reasonable person would have"

And because he didn't do what he would have had training to do, and would know is exceptionally important, a little boy died in horrendous circumstances.

They are probably completely traumatised and it's going to be with them for ever, and all because some idiot didn't do as he was trained and kept his van locked. He has to live with that knowledge as well.

So you just want someone else to feel bad instead then.

Re: UKIP Poster Campaign Attacked As RACIST
considering what I carry now and again sassy.....what sort of out cry would you recon would ensue if someone obtained that from my unlocked vehicle and used it fataly????
that object and its brothers are in a locked safe bolted to the vehicle (which i can promise you no one on earth could get into inside 10 min...even with welding gear....
If the vehicle is interfered with the onboard security besides sounding the alarm, firstly SMS messages me
after 3 mins it then
secondly activates the onboard tracking
and thirdly activates a second tracking device which begins broadcasting its location AND a verbal, morse and text message to all and every radio ham station in range, requesting police action and WHY ......
so should said item/s ever be stolen from it...i recon I have covered my "reasonable duties"

what an idiotic response.....
did you read what I posted on what the LAW says???
as to responsibilities
and how CHILDREN cannot be expected to understand the consequences of their sometimes less than sensible actions....
(which is why the LAW places the onus of responsibility upon those ADULTS involved...and upon "those who should know better"
like the council worker)

Oh of course nothing is ever a child's fault - then they grow up and still think that nothing is ever their fault. People like you teach others that they can do what like with impunity.
