MAG has recruited Farage because MAG sees 'Brussels' as a 'Threat to biking': remember those motorway protests of a few years ago?
Anyone who 'recruits' Farage for their cause must be either stark raving crazy or truly, truly out of options. If that bloke and his bunch of local busybody loons get anywhere near having a say in the running of the country then god (or whatever deity you think might be able to) help us. I wouldn't want him on my local village hall committee let alone having anything to say about how my kids are educated, what taxes I pay or representing my country on the world stage. I feel so strongly about UKIP not getting in it may even prompt me to vote Tory for the first time in my life!

I'm not a UKIP supporter...yet.
But forget about their portrayal in the media and have a look at their actual, published policies:

Whether you agree with them or not, they are at least clear, rational and mostly deliverable.
Where can I find a similar sensible document produced by any other political party?
