Well, it looks like the British system just hit a 100% success rate in destroying UKIP.

BBC:

UKIP’s Douglas Carswell is quitting the party to become an independent MP and says he is doing so “amicably”.

The party’s only MP defected from the Conservatives in 2014.

Former leader Nigel Farage recently called on Mr Carswell to quit, accusing him of “actively working against UKIP”.

Party leader Paul Nuttall said Mr Carswell was “committed to Brexit, but was never a comfortable Ukipper”. There are now calls within UKIP for the Clacton MP to call a by-election.

The party leader said Mr Carswell’s announcement was “not a surprise”.

He said: “I was elected on a pledge to forge unity in the party, and have had many discussions with key players to try and make that happen, but it had become increasingly clear to me that some things were simply beyond reach.”

This is an entirely nonsensical situation.

UKIP did Brexit. The people wanted Brexit. But now they have a government which didn’t want Brexit, and is not really doing a good job of implementing Brexit or implementing any of the programs which obviously follow from the mindset which led to Brexit.

Basically, the logical thing is for Nigel Farage to just become the leader of the Tories as Prime Minister, and then for the party to cleanse itself as the GOP in America is presently trying to do. But Nigel keeps doing weird things and changing his mind then doing other things.

So, I mean. I dunno.

Both Labour and Conservative were knocked for six last week as UKIP were able to score their first Member of Parliament in Douglas Carswell, who defected from the Conservatives and was then voted in again by his constituents as a UKIP candidate. At the same time, another UKIP candidate stood against Labour in one of their safe seats, where the opinion polls showed Labour winning by a landslide, yet they only managed to win by 600 votes, not by the 6,000 that they were expecting. All of this has got the Lib/Lab/Con running scared and UKIP are firmly on course for taking the third position away from the Liberal Democrats at the next election.

Predictably Labour are desperately trying to put people off voting for them by claiming UKIP are racist and anti-feminist, yet the more they do that, the more people support them. People are sick of being called racists for wanting the best for their own people and are sick of being forced to go along with the feminist agenda. The worm has turned, the more the general public get called ‘racist,’ the less power it is that the word will actually have and the more sympathy will be gained for those who are being called it now.

Daily Mail:

Nigel Farage today faced calls from Labour to tackle the ‘racists’ in the UK Independence Party.

Shadow business secretary Chuka Umunna claimed elements in UKIP were racist and said ‘terrible things’ about women and some sections of society.

But the remarks risk backfiring coming just as Ed Miliband scrambles to try to win back votes from Nigel Farage’s party, which came close to taking a safe seat from Labour last week.

It came as new UKIP MP Douglas Carswell urged his party to show ‘humanity’ in its approach to immigration and offer a more optimistic vision for Britain.

Opponents of UKIP have repeatedly highlighted offensive comments made by the party’s elected politicians and candidates.

But Mr Farage has vowed to root out anyone whose views might embarrass UKIP in the future.

Labour has been rocked by the rise of UKIP, only narrowly holding its safe seat of Heywood and Middleton by 617 votes last week.

Mr Umunna is seen as a rising star in the Labour party and a frontrunner to replace Mr Miliband after the next election.

Quizzed about the views of some in UKIP, Mr Umunna told Sky News: ‘Of course there are racists in UKIP.

‘And that is unfortunate and that’s something they need to address. They say terrible things about women, they say terrible things about different parts of our society.

Five years ago, the British National Party was the great hope of the nationalist movement in this country. Nowadays it is largely an irrelevance. We need to be realistic however. Even if the British National Party still had around fourteen thousand members and over one hundred councillors then it would still only be one notch above an irrelevance.

The plain fact is that the British National Party has always faced too many obstacles to its successful expansion. These include a hostile press, and a tendency for certain elections to be rigged in favour of the evil establishment.

By contrast, UKIP has never, so far as I am aware, been the victim of electoral sabotage, and while they often receive negative press coverage, they do nevertheless fare far better than the BNP in this respect.

We now find ourselves in the curious situation where it seems that it doesn’t matter if press coverage of UKIP is positive or negative. Quite simply, UKIP is on the march.

Until recently, Clacton-on-Sea was an unremarkable town in Essex. It now appears to be the heartland of a growing rebellion by the British electorate. Douglas Carswell, the MP for Clacton, has defected from the Conservatives to UKIP, and has resigned his seat so as to provoke a by-election in which he hopes to be the UKIP candidate.

If recent opinion polls are to be believed, then UKIP will easily win the by-election, thereby giving UKIP its first ever MP to be elected under the UKIP banner. If the national press is to be believed, then other Conservative MPs are also preparing to defect to UKIP. How many MPs will defect remains to be seen, as does the number who can be re-elected under the UKIP banner.

Followers of my blog will know that I am very critical of UKIP, although I think it is fair to say that I pay them a compliment by mentioning them at all. I do not live in the Clacton constituency, and at the present time I do not expect my own MP to defect to UKIP. I cannot see myself ever voting UKIP, but I admit that the rise of UKIP may have some benefits for the nationalist movement.

The next general election could easily result in a hung parliament, but not like the one we have at present. Even with the benefit of the D’Hondt system, the Liberal Democrats narrowly avoided a wipe-out in the recent European Parliament elections. There is a real likelihood that the LibDems could lose all their seats in Westminster at the next general election. Even if they hold onto a few seats, there is a possibility that UKIP could replace them as the third biggest party in the House of Commons.

Imagine a hung parliament in which UKIP MPs hold the balance of power between Labour and the Conservatives. One possible outcome would be either the Labour Party or the Conservative Party forming a minority administration, but minority administrations do not have a favourable history in this country. Imagine you are a government minister in a minority administration. You work hard to draft legislation to put before parliament, but you know that there is a strong likelihood that MPs will either reject it or else demand significant changes.

Few governments would tolerate that uncertainty for long, and so it is likely that a minority administration would seek a pact with another party. A minority Labour government had a pact with Liberal MPs in the period from March 1977 to September 1978 whereby Liberal MPs agreed to support the Labour government in return for certain policy concessions. By contrast, a coalition is a more formal arrangement whereby two or more parties share government.

One possible outcome would be a grand coalition of Labour and the Tories with UKIP in opposition. Nevertheless I am not sure that many Labour or Conservative voters would welcome such an outcome, and I recall that after the last general election there was never any talk of a Labour-Tory coalition.

We should therefore expect a hung parliament to result in either a coalition government involving UKIP or else a minority government bolstered by a pact with UKIP. There is therefore a very real possibility that UKIP could in the next few years force Britain’s withdrawal from the European Union and the Council of Europe.

As a nationalist I want far more than UKIP are offering. I want Britain to halt immigration, and then consider a repatriation programme. Nevertheless I accept that UKIP can remove two very large obstacles to a nationalist victory. It is impossible to end immigration unless Britain first leaves the EU and the Council of Europe.

The people of Clacton will decide who to elect as their MP in the coming by-election. I do not think for one moment that I can influence their decision, and I am not sure I even want to. What I want is for all nationalists to keep their eyes firmly focused on our eventual goal.

However people vote in elections today, we need to work hard to persuade them that nationalism is right for Britain. I urge readers of this site never to buy national newspapers until there is at least one national newspaper which is sympathetic to the cause of the indigenous British people. In case you are wondering, I cannot remember when I last bought a national newspaper, but it must have been years ago.

I also urge readers of this site never to join UKIP or to donate any money to it. Voting for UKIP is one thing, but save your money for the cause of true nationalism.

An illegal immigrant who stabbed a 15-year-old  schoolboy to death less than a year after arriving in Britain cannot be deported because he claims to be gay, judges ruled yesterday.

The 29-year-old Jamaican was jailed for life aged 16 when he and another schoolboy knifed Abdul Maye to death over a £10 debt outside his school in east London.

A judge at the Old Bailey ordered that he be kicked out of Britain once he had served a minimum of eight years.

Judge Paul Focke told the thug, who cannot not be named for legal reasons: ‘You are a Jamaican national and within months of coming to this country you committed murder.

‘I am of the view that your continued presence in this country will be detrimental to its citizens.’

But yesterday, the Court of Appeal ruled that he could not be sent back to Jamaica because he could face degrading treatment for being homosexual that would breach his human rights.

In an extraordinary judgment which has provoked outrage, Lord Justice Kay said he believed his mother’s evidence that he was  gay – even though the Home Office said he ‘had made no mention of it’ until his first appeal against deportation failed.

The decision is expected to infuriate Home Secretary Theresa May, who has battled to send him home since he was released from prison in 2012.

The judge referred to Article Three in the Human Rights Act, which protects an individual from inhuman or degrading treatment.

Douglas Carswell, Tory MP for Clacton, said: ‘Most people would think this is outrageous. It’s a gross distortion of the concept of justice.

‘Until we have freed ourselves from the European Convention on Human Rights, these sorts of basket-case decisions will carry on happening thick and fast.’

Peter Bone, Tory MP for Wellingborough, said: ‘Whether or not this man is sent back should be entirely at the discretion of British courts.

‘The idea that his human rights should have any impact whatever when he has come in to this country illegally in the first place to murder someone is absurd.

‘When it comes to murderers, courts should have the absolute right to sentence people for as long as they want, or to send them home immediately after.’

The murderer, referred to only as JR, arrived in the UK in December 2000 when he was 15 on a temporary visa to visit his  mother.

An application for leave to stay longer was refused, but the yob remained in the country anyway.

And less than a year later he and a 14-year-old stabbed a fellow schoolboy to ‘save face’ after he humiliated them by refusing to pay a £10 debt – a payment which he owed them for cannabis.

The Old Bailey heard JR, who only has an IQ of 63 – putting him in the lowest two per cent of the population – knifed Abdul in front of his horrified classmates outside Little Ilford Comprehensive School in Manor Park after the victim had just finished a mock GCSE exam on December 7, 2001.

The victim, whose family fled to Britain from the civil war in Somalia in 1995, died shortly afterwards in hospital.

In the weeks beforehand, the schoolboys had threatened to ‘chop’ or ‘stab’ the victim and the Jamaican sprayed him and a friend with CS gas.

The pair were jailed for life in September 2002 and told to serve a minimum of eight years and two months. But this was reduced on appeal to six years and two months with the deportation recommendation set aside.

However, the Secretary of State ordered JR’s deportation in 2009.

A seriously ill teenager from Pakistan being treated free of charge on the NHS has launched a legal appeal to stay in Britain.

The 17-year-old and his mother argue that forcing them to return home to poorer medical care amounts to “inhuman treatment” and breaches his human rights.

If he wins the battle, not only will UK taxpayers have to foot his huge hospital bill, but the NHS may be forced to open its doors to sickly youngsters from around the world.

Last night Tory MP Priti Patel called it “an appalling case of health tourism”, adding that Government reforms in the Immigration Bill would stop “such abuses of our public services”.

Fellow Tory MP Douglas Carswell said: “It would be inhuman not to have enormous sympathy with this young man and his condition. But if we can’t get this sorted our National Health Service will become an International Health Service, and that is unsustainable.”

Yesterday two immigration judges at the Upper Tier Tribunal were told the teenager, identified only as MQ, has a potentially fatal blood disorder which stunts his growth.

The youth, who has the build of a boy of 10 because of his condition, arrived on a tourist visa in 2012 and almost immediately sought medical care.

MQ’s mother, who has a husband and another son in Pakistan, denied bringing him to the UK for treatment – even though her asylum application appeared to show otherwise. She claimed to have been visiting her sister when she took her son to a specialist and then the Whittington Hospital in north London.
