Shame about the wallpaper.

I take it you either A) aren't a UKIP supporter or B) found my creation somewhat "amateur" which indeed it is!!

Either way I'm sure we can both agree on one thing - that Microsoft Windows is a heap of rubbish!

On the subject of the logo, I think it is definitely worth keeping for the forseeable future and not change it "for change sake" as someone suggested, which to me would be a very New Labour thing to do.

We do indeed need to retain the symbol, it is the 'crux' of the issue. We must defend the right to keep it at all costs. The reform treaty will be the end of the pound, Article 48 will be used to force us to change. It is this detail that we need to get out into the world.

The pound logo, in my experience, simply plays up people's pre-conceived ideas of UKIP as a bunch of obsessive Little Englanders who are totally irrelevant when it comes to any issue which doesn’t involve the EU. If we are to make serious progress, this must change.

Sorry Michael, I do not agree, this is Farage thinking, remember he just lives the EU, or so it appears!! Change the logo and you will need to start all over again. I enjoyed your speech at the LAW & ORDER CONFERENCE, well done and it was good of you and Rob Burberry from the Young Indepence to support the event, BUT, WHERE WAS YOUR DEAR LEADER??

I am wondering what this has got to do with this topic at all? It appears that you have a personal vendetta which you are trying to air at every opportunity by making tenuous links to completely non-related issues, which quite frankly just makes you look silly.

We have some really good speakers in YI who attend conferences all over the country and who are independent people and don't need hand holding. Why should the YI leader attend every event where a YI member speaks? That's a bit like saying Nigel Farage should attend every event where a main party member speaks.

Sorry, I am just confused about you making such a random statement.
