Dave,
You claimed that Farage said he would "axe much of race discrimination law" and you were not telling the truth.


EXACT quote from the BBC news article, cut and paste. Nothing altered

Nigel Farage would axe 'much of' race discrimination law

UKIP would scrap much of the legislation designed to prevent racial discrimination in work, party leader Nigel Farage has said.

So, Keith, in what way was I not telling the truth? Or are you saying that the BBC was not telling the truth as well?

As to the other point -


Dave, when you state things that are not true, I am entitled to ask where they came from.
I have never claimed or asserted that you imagined them. I just asked the question. Did you?

Well, here are two examples of you doing exactly what you just said you have not done -

"How are you sure Dave? Voices?"

There is nothing in UKIP manifesto about that, so where did you get it from Dave?
It is not true, so did you make it up or imagine it?

Why do you say something and then deny you said it, Keith, when it is plain for all to see. You are either very forgetful or spectacularly dishonest.

Not sute what you are saying Nigel (you tend not to explain yourself)
My comments should have needed no further explanation. I was making the point that you used the term 'recognised sources'. I made the point that just being 'recognised' does not necessarily mean that the source is reliable. As you seem to point out in the next few paragraphs.
I neber quote from Al-jazeera as the people I argue with seem to believe that Arabs aren't entitled to an opinion.
I very seldom use The sun (except when I am taken short and there's no toilet paper) - occasionally it's useful as when it takes a pop at the establishment, you can take it as read that it wouldn't do so if it were avoidable- likewise the Mail.
Both are right-wing tabloid rags.
The Telegraph is handy as it is a serious paper when you take into consideration where it is coming from.
I scan all the press, either for information or to find out which way the wind blows
These people offer nothing but their own opinions and I know which way the wind blows with them
What on earth is your point?
I didn't get an answer to whether you believed I think Jews to be mentally deficient - neither a yes or no, certainly not a retraction.
I didn't say that you believed Jews to be mentally deficient (although it is possible that you read it that way). I asked whether you believed that, on the basis that you had stated that Jews were forced to wear the black triangle (a sign of mental deficiency). As I hadn't made a statement about the matter, there would be no need for a retraction.
I suppose we have to learn to live with hit-and-run debate

" 'recognised sources'."
Only because Keith and others refuses to recognise those he doesn't agree with - left ones were specified.
As far as I'm concerned, I'll use any source, but with circumspection when it comes opinion rather than established fact
I have quoted from the Telegrapg and the Mail regularly - I think I have used the Sun once, to point out to one of our number that even this right-wing bumwipe had dismissed the forcing of refugees to wear identification insignia while he was (and still is) supporting it.
" I asked whether you believed that,"
Which implied that I might do - I don't, and I would have thought my opinions on this were well enough known.
I've got a little tired of seeing critics of Israel being accused of "antisemitism" by by people whose actions make them guilty of same.

Dave,
I have never claimed or asserted that you imagined them. I just asked the question.

In the two quotes you gave, I make no claim or assertion.
I just asked the question.

So, Keith, in what way was I not telling the truth?

You claimed that Farage, "would axe much of race discrimination law."

Exact BBC quote you just gave, "Nigel Farage would axe 'much of' race discrimination law."

They put "much of" in quotes to distance them from the accusation being reported, which does not stand up.

The second exact quote you gave, "UKIP would scrap much of the legislation designed to prevent racial discrimination in work, party leader Nigel Farage has said."

So BBC is only claiming the want to change some workplace discrimination legislation, and specifically so that British people should be employed when possible instead of giving preference to foreign nationals because they might be cheaper.

Farage answered all that, as the BBC went on to report,

" Mr Farage said: "My comments have been wilfully misinterpreted. I have made no comments about the Race Relations Act at all.
"I have made comments in favour of British people getting jobs over and above those from southern eastern Europe."
The UKIP leader said he was speaking up for Britain's unemployed youth "both black and white", saying the young black community had suffered the biggest rise in unemployment as a result of immigration.
He said Gordon Brown, as Labour prime minister, spoke of British jobs for British workers, adding: "Well I'm saying it and really meaning it."

No Ake, the answer is that you start to respond to the points made rather than treating these these disputes as personality clashes
You refuse to justify your horrendously inhuman claims, you refuse to respond head on to the arguments - you just go on making your extremist points without justifying them over and over again, Keith is the same.
Neither of you are prepared to accept the responsibility for your constant extremism on the people you choose to victimise.

Yes, but why do you people think it is OK to make them?
You say I defend UKIP, but all I do is ask you to justify your claims about them?
Why is that so hard for you?

If it is not in the manifesto it cannot be true

If it is not in the manifesto, it is not one of the stated aims of the Party.
If there is no racism in the views and aims as set out in the manifesto, how do you know it is racist?
You have ducked that simple question several times now so presumably you have no answer.

Isn't it quite nice to know that poor Keith thinks he's won?

This is not a debate to be won or lost.
It is you making claims that you can not substantiate, and others pointing out your failure.

Britain doesn't need anti-discrimination laws, says Farage
He made the comments in a documentary that will go out next week.
Mar 12th 2015
NIGEL FARAGE, LEADER of the UK Independence Party (UKIP), sparked outrage today for saying Britain should scrap laws on racial discrimination at work because it was no longer a problem.
In a documentary to be screened next week, the head of the anti-mass immigration, anti-European Union party said he would repeal "much of" the legislation introduced a generation ago to stop employers hiring staff on the basis of ethnicity and gender.
He said businesses were burdened with regulations and scrapping such laws would allow them to hire British workers – from any ethnic background – rather than immigrants to address the issue of unemployment among young Britons.
"Moved way beyond that"
In a BBC radio interview, Farage said discrimination legislation had been necessary in the past but "I think we've moved way beyond that as a society".
Asked if there should be redress for victims of racial discrimination, he said: "Yes of course, if people are being blatantly racist, but they're not.
"Let's stop beating ourselves up and saying we're a racist country, we're not. We've moved way, way, way beyond that."
He said: "I think employers should be able to employ people on ability… Let's try please to put the interests of unemployed black and white British youth first."
A spokesman for Prime Minister David Cameron, whose Conservative Party risks losing some of its lawmakers to UKIP in the May general election, said Farage was "wrong".
"The laws are there to protect people from racial discrimination. It's deeply concerning he doesn't understand that," he said.
Opposition
Opposition Labour justice spokesman Sadiq Khan said Farage showed "breathtaking ignorance" and said his proposal would take Britain back to the days when businesses put up signs saying they would admit "no blacks, no dogs, no Irish".
"We have made huge progress on tackling racial inequality and discrimination in this country… but things are still far from perfect," he said.
The Labour Party this week released figures showing that long-term unemployment among black and minority ethnic young people had increased by 49 percent since 2010.
Overall the number of 18 to 24-year-olds unemployed for more than a year fell one percent in the same period, according to The Guardian newspaper.

Jim, we have been through all that.
From your quote,
"Britain should scrap laws on racial discrimination at work."

Yes, but only those that prevent employers giving preference to British national, whatever their race, over foreign nationals just because they are cheaper.
"British jobs for British workers" as Gordon Brown used to say.

BBC on this issue.

" Mr Farage said: "My comments have been wilfully misinterpreted. I have made no comments about the Race Relations Act at all.
"I have made comments in favour of British people getting jobs over and above those from southern eastern Europe."
The UKIP leader said he was speaking up for Britain's unemployed youth "both black and white", saying the young black community had suffered the biggest rise in unemployment as a result of immigration.

No. I do not believe we have different moralities and ask you to justify that claim. Please do not make vacuous claims that you can not justify.

I am as opposed to racism every bit as much as I am sure you are.
I just ask for evidence of it before I vilify someone or some party for it.
Farage and UKIP may well be racist and worthy of our contempt, but show me some unequivocal evidence for it first.
Why is that so hard to do?

Different language.

I ask you to justify that claim too.

So it is down to "belief" not evidence Dave, and I am "stupid" for requiring actual evidence of their racism.

I am willing to see their racism and keep asking you to identify it, but you seem unable to.

UKIP is a political party. Its aims and objectives are set out in its manifesto and its literature.
If there is no racism in any of that, how do you know it is racist.

It seems like just prejudice because their views differ from yours.

Jim,
"Yes, but only those that prevent employers giving preference to British national,"
On a racist basis then - agreement at last

Not on a racial basis. What is wrong with you?
British Nationals are of all races. EU immigrants are overwhelmingly white. Race has nothing to do with it.

Gordon Brown also demanded, "British jobs for British workers."
Racist Jim?

"My comments have been wilfully misinterpreted. I have made no comments about the Race Relations Act at all."

Off topic but a little tale for all those who buy the media stuff about how easy immigrants get benefits.

Then she worked abroad for two years and came back for a while to see us, where she had a temp job up to and over the Christmas period. On Friday she went to sign on with two agencies and also at the Job Centre. It appears she is not entitled to any job seeker or other benefits because she is regarded as an EEA citizen not a UK one and she hasnt been in the country long enough.

You would not want to risk ridicule by saying that again.
Does anyone here know why Lox rejects a cultural explanation?
Dave, you have been more than fair in you comments on this debate.
Do you know?

"And Alan - by definition, a hypothesis which discriminates solely on the base of race/culture and which deliberately excludes all other factors is a racist hypothesis."
So, if we think that culture might be the explanation for the massive over representation, we must unthink it, because it is "racist."
No theorising is permissable, or you are a racist.
Stop the debate, or be guilty of racism.
You must not even imagine such a thing.
Quite liberal Lox. not shared with us?

When I go to an EU country my EHIC card covers me as if I was a national of that country. A reciprocal arrangement, Keith. UK nationals living in or retiring to, for example, Spain, can normally expect to be treated in exactly the same way as a Spanish national and that is also reciprocal. Travelling to countries expressly for treatment may not be covered. But that isn't what Farage meant, as otherwise he wouldn't have had to say it. He means all health care for five years and nothing for AIDS sufferers, even if they didn't come here expressly for treatment. Great if you're rich. Shitty and unaffordable if you're poor. Discrimination, Keith. At the moment anyone who is ordinarily resident in this country can use the NHS the same as everybody else regardless of nationality and how long they've been here. If you've never been here, arrive by parachute and break your ankle on landing, you'll get exactly the same primary care for free as everyone else. Remove your blinkers and THINK about the implications of Farage's proposition. Farage planned that speech carefully with his spin doctors and knew exactly what sentiments he was appealing to. And so do you. Admit it.
