Ukip

                        
    Liberal (Multi)Culture(ists)                   










Council which removed foster children after parents' Ukip membership was discovered finally apologises seven months on 

Social workers took three Eastern European children away in November
  • Rotherham council originally said couple's affiliation with right-wing group meant they opposed 'multiculturalism'
  • It has now back-tracked saying reason for action was badly communicated
  • 'The council can confirm that membership of Ukip would not prevent any individual from being considered as a foster carer'
  • But council insists decision was still in the children's 'best interests'
Gee, what is this Ukip (UK IndependenceParty), and why are they so bad that their children can be taken from them? 
  • European Union: UKIP advocates leaving the European Union
  • European Court of Human Rights - UKIP wants to repeal the Human Rights Act, and remove Britain from both the European Convention on Refugees and the European Convention on Human Rights to "enable us to deport foreign criminal and terrorist suspects where desirable" while still "allow[ing] genuine asylum applications in accordance with our international obligations"
  • Monarchy:UKIP fully supports the British monarchy and its constitutional role.
  • Immigration: The party has previously outlined a number of measures designed to reduce immigration into the UK which include a five-year "freeze" on immigration for permanent settlement, the introduction of a points-based work-permit system and initiating a drive to remove illegal immigrants.
  • Same-sex marriage: the party supports civil partnerships but opposes legalisation allowing same-sex marriage because of concerns that a law change could mean that faith groups and places of worship would be forced to perform same-sex marriages.
  • Energy, environment and climate change: UKIP's 2013 energy policy document states that global warming is part of a natural cycle: "the slight warming in the last hundred years is entirely consistent with well-established, long-term natural climate cycles".
  • Defence: UKIP proposed a 40 percent increase in defence spending and the purchase of three new aircraft carriers. (Source)

Oh, I see.  They're a Brit "Tea Party." The bastids.  Carry on then, they don't deserve to have nice things.
