Marmite and fruitcakes: UKIP activists in their own words | Channel 4 News

Who are these Ukip die-hards? What drives them? Zed Nelson meet another side of Ukip.

It took quite some time before I worked out this wasn't a comedy thing.

Oh god this whole thing is remarkable. None of these people have justifiable opinions, except perhaps the builder regarding falling wages. I love the mindset of people that have emigrated here, or there parents emigrated here, and now they don't want anymore to come in. And the elderly middle englanders so far removed from any comprehension of Britains demographics that they believe we are overrun by the small minority of immigrants in the UK. And what did the parents of that first kid do to him?

5:34 was the highlight for me though. That dude claiming he can't contend with foreigners with more experience. Perhaps he could contend with them if he made the effort to appear even remotely employable. In this day and age you don't even need to be clean cut. There is absolutely no feeling anywhere on Earth that the British youth aren't as good as others. He as an individual might feel that sentiment however as he has deliberately and provocatively chosen to look like a cast member of the rocky horror show.

I thought this was a mockumentary at first. Wow These people are throwbacks and are very regressive in my opinion.

'He's sort of like... Martin Luther King.' I was thinking more Hitler.

I liked the UKIP Goth. There should be more Political Goths.

I hated that they did not show the rest of me on the comments I made. Had to pick the one quote that people would assume only applies to intergalactic war and sci-fi, and not see the implication how what I said, actually has happened and continues to happen to the world.

I mean, look at what has happened to Iraq now. Totally destabilized now, and much worse off because of the now current civil wars and now mercenaries that now own that country.

Anyway, it was a fun thing to do seeing as it was my first time doing an interview.

I was very nervous as well so don't hate me for trying, my comment was two sided as well, one for the people coming to the UK who feel that they are out of place becasue of all the stigma, and the people that live here, who, all they see it waves of people coming into the UK.

Hopefully I can be more confident next time. Hopefully.

I wonder how many of these interviewees were vetted by UKIP before appearing on this film.

[universityofutubesjewtubes]

This wasn't made to make UKIP voters look weird or arrogant at all. All very normal.

"He's sort of like Martin Luther King." That kid will probably regret this video in a few years time...

[poopbagify]

Did I mishear or did that child compare Nigel Farage to Dr Martin Luther King?
