UKIP MAN is just starting out
Default Is the Title MEP correct?

If as we say we are NOT "ANTI EUROPEAN - ANTI EUROPE", we are anti "European Union" then surely the Title

..........."Member of the European Parliament" ....MEP


is not correct and this should be Changed in all of printed material that is associated with UKIP.


The title should be MEUP, Member of the European Union Parliament.

so what I am saying is "We have 10 UKIP MEUP's"


Are there any other titles etc that need changing?

SKY NEWS

After listening to the sky news today, the presenters continued to call us anti European every time UKIP was mentioned.


They also said that we had as much chance of getting a seat in parliament as Nigel farrage had of stopping Smoking so come on Nigel Either give it up or send us some DUTY FREE's

Other than that it was a little bit of coverage that has got a debate going on through the sky news e-mails

I watched "This Week" last night, with Michael Portillo and Diane Abbott. Michael said that Howard and the Tories were worried about the influence of UKIP and the BNP (linking us together as usual). Members of these andti-European parties were seen as racist.

If I can find an e-mail address for the programme, I will complain.

Shami Chakrabarti director of liberty on talk sport

I sent this e-mail to her website via the members list

Quote:

Your director was interviewed on talk sport this morning and I would just like to say.

I have never had anything to do with your (liberty) thingy but you may do some good work or you may not I dont know, I have looked at your website briefly and maybe you do.

After the comments spoken by your director she has put down a few million British citizens on national radio in one sentence.

" The racist groups like BNP and UKIP".............. UKIP are not a RACIST group.

Please do not use our party name in the same sentence as BNP.

Next time she wants to call 2.5 million voters RACIST she should do some research first....

Thank you AB

But there is one thing.

I thought that I had actualy Found something serious to talk about with the question of:

Is the MEP the correct title?

also they call it the European Parliament dont they, so when we leave the EU club and even now it should be called The European Union Parliament?


:evil:

You are absolutely correct, and I am training myself to always call it the EU Parliament. It is not a European Parliament.

Well I dont Know, after trying to Edukate people about the title of MEUP and European Union parliament I got my Independence news and the first thing I checked was the Abbreviations and low and behold they are still there.

MEP.......MEUP

European parliament.........European Union Parliament


how many countries in Europe that are not in the club?

Switzerland I know of!

also the letters were a bit tame :wink:


Oh I forgot about the European Union commission :P
