Why UKIP is better for immigrants than Labour or the Tories

The mainstream media that has portrayed UKIP as anti-immigrant has spectacularly missed the point. UKIP offers real hope to immigrants in a way that Conservatives and Labour can't understand. Whatever you have heard, many love UKIP's Euroscepticism too, and for good reason

UKIP's brilliant manifesto launch should worry the Tories

UKIP has really raised the bar with the launch of its election manifesto. It will require a robust and serious response. But if the Tories are even allowing UKIP to outflank them on defence, they may already be a lost cause

Tooting View: UKIP becoming the party for Catholics

The Catholic vote used to be Labour territory. But UKIP -- with the backing of one in seven UK Catholics -- is encroaching here as in so many areas. We have a Eurosceptic Pope, and people are taking note

Quite what does UKIP stand for? Brexit and Nexit

UKIP these days is less Brexit (though still that) than Nexit. In other words, they're a force for real change. And even though they're working out a manifesto, the party is up for some truly thoughtful ideas. It's Nexit Nige...

Open letter: UKIP gets serious on shale, serious on UK interests

So, one last, hopelessly counterproductive smear against UKIP from mainstream media/politics?

Come on. Let's have some fun. What's the last minute smear we can expect against UKIP? Nigel and women's underwear? "War criminal" charges? Spurned lovers? We wait with bated breath

Mainstream Britain still doesn't understand UKIP

People recoil from the high moral tone adopted by parties that have had members of parliament jailed for fiddling expenses, or have held abominable views on matters such as terrorism or Leftist dictators. But the real point is that a new political era has just begun

UKIP advances in Scotland
