"Their views on immigration are stupid and myopic, but that is true of much of the public." - Amol Rajan

Ukip has policies far beyond Europe, and its members are generally patriotic, pinstriped types. Their views on immigration are stupid and myopic, but that is true of much of the public. As the whole European federalist project disintegrates, Ukip will appear prescient, and voters will give them credit.

Source to the person who thinks the general public is stupid. Clearly a vote winner that one.

I have yet to see evidence to the contrary, I wonder who the myopic public will next vote into power.
Milliband?
Clegg?
Cameron?
Who will Brussels put in charge of the United(ha ha)Kingdom.

You cannot call the public stupid for holding an opinion which you disagree with. Then you are stupid.

But generally, yes, the public as a body are not particularly clever.

I am only stupid to the people/public I disagree with, those that agree with me don't think I'm stupid.
If we all agreed we would be the most clever people on the planet but I suspect that there would be at least one stupid person that would hold the contrary view.

The Earth???

All they need to do is offer a tax cut 0.001% more than the other partys and the cheap bastards at the ballot box will roll over like a clapped out dock road whore and put their "X" where the "money" is.
