UKIP leader Nigel Farage’s Scotland trip ended in chaos after he was met with protests at every turn calling him a “racist” and telling him to “go home to England”.
Nigel Farage’s UKIP are widely regarded to have been the big winners of the recent local council elections around England and Wales. Their anti-Europe and anti-immigration stance is not, however, shared by all of the British populace, and there is a protest campaign to get British Sea Power’s Waving Flags into the charts.
Foreign Secretary William Hague has urged Conservative voters not to “waste” their vote on UKIP in the upcoming elections in England and Wales.
Pollsters during the last General Election campaign said immigration was the single issue aside from the economy that most concerned UK voters. My experience of Romanian immigrants in the UK is more personal and first hand than most – I was raised by one.
With the border of our EU neighbours also open to immigration from Romania, and the British economy continuing to flat-line, it is unlikely that the UK will face a Romanian invasion on any major scale.
