Unfortunately, as they have almost no policies, you can only look at the things its members say and seem to believe to judge where they possibly stand overall.

That is something you could do. Their European policy is pretty simple, Referendum and hopefully an exit from the EU. Nigel has said they're working on their domestic policies and manifesto over the summer.

By why wait? Why not make up your own policies for UKIP? It's exciting and imaginative, like trying to guess what will happen in the next series of your favourite drama.

The press has been doing it for the last few months, so why not join in on the libel? Even a BBC News political editor joined in on the jokes.

Because then they'd have to explain why they stuff the EU with their own failures. And how they never really participate in a meaningful sense and like all the other big countries, trys and get their own way by threatening to throw their toys out

Don't they help prevent splinters on your broomstick?

Knickers do that perfectly well.

Yes, it's very simple. Good that they're going to try and toss together some other ones over the summer. Also good that you don't let an overall lack of current policies stop them from speaking to you as a party.

No, that is exactly what the press haven't been doing. They aren't allowed to just make shit up, they get sued.

Fortunately, UKIP candidates do all the work for them.

I also prefer skirts, for a variety of reasons. "Exciting men" is not one of them.

When travelling, skirts are more conducive to the use of public toilets. I won't give details.

I would be very happy if the first two UKIP domestic policies were:

1. Outlawing all guns ever.

2. Outlawing smoking everywhere.

You might just find Nige turns on you, RCP.

Very unprofessional

How else can I judge them, Renny? They don't have a handy manifesto for me to read.

So I read this instead:

Sometimes all you need is a strong, charismatic leader who members of the public identify with. And other times, you just have to look at the current immigration figures - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-25135418

You could also look at the records of the previous parties and how they made promises on manifestos and policies that they never delivered.
