Jim you are just talking a lot of nonsense. The "double standards" referred to the attitude of folk club audiences and their acceptance of differing political views.
I do not support UKIP, but I am not so ideologically bound that I cannot accept some policies of alternative political parties as "sensible"
"A hard left government wouldn't oppose immigration on any grounds", cant believe you really wrote that Jim....on any grounds? now I know you have lost the plot.
No one is seeking to persecute a tiny minority (1.5% of the population) You were being referred to the rates of infection which affect that sexual minority, which the health agencies say are very significant indeed. If anyone is "sick, sick, sick," it must be the health professionals who compile these figures.

Not one UK Party wish to stop immigration altogether, and I certainly do not.....we are discussing UNREGULATED immigration from within the EU....I agree with UKIP and the other major parties that we must have a degree of control over our borders. That does not mean prohibiting everyone from entering.

You are simply becoming irrational Jim, you are obviously moving in the wrong circles. Try to avoid stalkers and anonymous guests, or usernames starting with M and ending with t......you will probably find they are all the same person. :0)
