Ukip says it will replace Labour as the party of the working class

[barryqwalsh]

One senior Labour MP warned that the party was losing touch with its traditional voters, saying "the leadership are talking Swahili when ordinary people in ordinary jobs are talking English".

Douglas Carswell, who last month became Ukip’s first MP, said the row showed that the "Labour leadership despises ordinary folk" and is "no longer in touch with working people".

Better UKIP than Labour. I am surprised that a hard core of Brits temain so oblivious to the economic incompetence of the last Labour Government. Shame I disagree with their flagship policies on EU membership and immigration cause Farrage at least strikes me as an honest man. Makes him far more interesting than the rest of our phony and nihilistically narcisstic political elite.
