— DrewM The UK Independence Party seems to be the conservative/libertarian option in the UK. They are in favor of tight border control, free markets and are adamantly opposed to the UK's European entanglements*.
They don't have any members in the UK Parliament but have a couple of seats in the European Parliament which they use to more or less harangue the Euro bureaucrats. Like this....
via TV's Andy Levy
*I haven't run extensive checks on everything about the UKIP so I don't want to hear from the net nanny saying I've embraced evil or something. They seem alright and they certainly aren't the cretins from the BNP.

Oh, but you will anyway. Words like "tight border control" are just code for "nationalistic imperial racism," dont'cha know. Charles Johnson has all those clandestine NAZI connections diagrammed out.

It may suck as a political force, but as a place to visit, it's quite nice. Great food, great beer, nice people (most of whom really do speak English, making tourism for an American much easier), and nicely accessible from London via the fast train.
I spent a short time there for work and found the lifestyle much closer to our own than, say, Germany (which sucks balls) or France (which is laughably inefficient, even if the food is great). Almost took a job there.

A fair number of economists think the EU/Euro will collapse into chaos, or at least everyone will have their own currency again. The problems in Greece could well be the trigger. And if you expect both the Euro and the dollar to collapse, gold isn't a bad place to be.

But Belgium a non country? Well maybe. They make some pretty good beer though. And of course the Engllish have been moving through Belgium pretty much like grease through a goose ever since the Duke of Wellington handled things at Waterloo.

FYI, after the last election, UKIP also have more seats in the EU Parliament than the Labour Party, second only to the Tories...which suggests that maybe the UK is not entirely too far gone after all.

You sound like a BNPer. Be careful, lest you get brought up on charges of "inciting racial hatred".
UKIP is great. They are most certainly NOT the racist thugs of the BNP: the BNP is living proof that fascism is a breed of socialism.
Thugs? Excuse me, I think you might have the BNP confused with the "Anti-Fascists" who run around in ski masks using physical violence to prevent BNP members from peacefully assembling. You know, the people who rioted and broke into the BBC when they let Nick Griffin appear on Question Time? Were you one of them?

Right: let's avoid the cretins of the BNP so that we can stick with Liebour, including the half-dozen members of its cabinet with Marxist ties, including Chancellor of the Exchequer Alistair Darling and the Brothers Miliband.
Fact is, BNP is the only party in Britain that takes the threat of Islamification seriously, and is willing to do what it takes to end it, including repatriation of Muslims to their homelands. I don't agree with them on, oh, anything else, but if I were British I would vote for them without compunction, because they're right on the only issue that matters now.
