This isn't really a forum suggestion but a feature suggestion, wasn't sure where to put this!

When editing profile details, there is a section where you can select your political party. Now three main parties of the UK are listed. I wouldn't have a problem, but a fourth party is also listed, the Greens! The Greens have a lot less support than UKIP in pretty much everything, including the 2014 European election, Parliament and the latest polls.

I'm just politely wondering if you could add UK - UKIP as an option, because they're a lot more popular than the Greens and are increasing in popularity to challenge the main three (the latest polls show UKIP having a vote share of around 20%, and the Greens trailing at around 5%).

Nope, there isn't one and it has been raised before and chances are it isn't going to be added.

The Greens are an established party that will be around beyond 2015 as well :p

Ah, that's a shame. Fair enough, though I would say UKIP is also an established party that will be sticking around. :p

Well it's a protest party and just look at what happened with Scotland. People played it safe.

Leaving EU is one thing, the rest of what they plan to do is insanity in my opinion.

I disagree but won't get into a political debate here. :D

I know what, let's make a deal. If UKIP wins more than 20 seats in the May election, it'll be added. That's fair right? :D

Okay UKIPers, almost no Americans know about UKIP - BUT my interest is in bible prophecy and I am looking at the person known as the little horn in Daniel 7 (who ultimately becomes the Antichrist) emerging as the leader of the EU.

But first the EU will have to become federalized - the United States of Europe in concept - with some form of Authoritative rule by ten men. What's this got to do with UKIP ?

Because I really like the Nigel Fararge videos in the EU parliment his ranting and raving over the EU "project" to create a United States of Europe. So far away across the pond, us over here are not in tune with what is going on in the EU - but with the Greek extension coming due - and the crisis over the Euro, there could be a revision of the EU' to a federalized state.

So if any UKIPers have any input to the Eschatology Forum regarding a United States of Europe - a thread(s) on the matter would be appreciated - be me at least.

Where can I discuss with the UKIPers on this forum ?

Nigel Farrage is just a sad racist little man who needed the reality slap he was given in the general elections.

i'd prefer not to have racist political parties represented here.
uh, did you vote for him..... ;)

Hey, I want to know what you think about the EU "project", a federalized Europe.

Never going to happen.
Hasn't the EU gone through several changes already since its inception toward that end goal?

EEC, then EC, then EU, then ?

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/wor...ed-States-of-Europe-says-top-EU-official.html

Viviane Reding, vice president of the European Commission and the longest serving Brussels commissioner, has called for "a true political union" to be put on the agenda for EU elections this spring.

"We need to build a United States of Europe with the Commission as government and two chambers – the European Parliament and a "Senate" of Member States," she said.
