The new party website is up!

This is not a website of a political party it is a **** poor website of a anti-EU protest party.

I remember Nigel being interviewed and saying "people know what we are against now we are going to tell them what we are for", well i see very precious little of that on our website.

David Sinclair is the website coordinator; have you tried contacting him?

I think that the new website is worse than the old one as it is less informative. There isn't much in the way of policy (the last manifesto seems to have disappeared). It is just too bland.

If I was a neutral, I would look at it, be unimpressed and move on. It wouldn't inspire me to join, or even vote, for the party.

I actually sent them a load of propaganda ideas for their new website. I am realistic enough to realise that they wouldn't take much notice of an ordinary member. Nevertheless, I am disappointed that they have ignored the lot.

Who did you send them to, David? David Sinclair, the web-coordinator?

No, David Campbell-Bannerman the deputy leader. Probably the wrong guy.

My main complaint about the new website is that 95% of the content has disappeared, and there doesn't appear to be a full text search facility available either.

It seems that UKIP has the 5th most popular political party website.
