Behold the greatest contrast offered by the Dunfermline by-election campaign: the aftermath of the moment when Zara Kitson’s Green campaign was interrupted by the 3rd Viscount Monckton, notorious climate change denier and UKIP’s top candidate for Mid Scotland and Fife in 2011. Personally I think it’s brave of him to campaign in Scotland having said “the Scots are subsidy junkies whingeing like a trampled bagpipe as they wait for their next fix of English taxpayers’ money.” I also like the fact that Zara fobbed him off with a leaflet on the Greens’ vision for an independent Scotland. No wonder the furrowed brow, as he contemplates ideas he presumably can’t distinguish from full communism.

What about oil revenue.. your happy to accept thousands of millions of pounds from Scotland and then England re-drew the water borders of the north sea, can’t keep their hands off the natural resources world wide either. Anyways.. there’s over 50 million people in England.. way more dole scroungers south of the border. But that’s probably because the unequal distribution off wealth and your middle class society ignoring the fact that poor people may need some help. You can’t blame people on job seekers for using tax money when you have corporations like boots hiding out in Europe and paying 3% tax.. how about that? They have 4 stores within a 13 mile radios where I stay. The thing with you guys is that you always omit information.. Voting Yes btw.

But just what is Zara doing with her right arm to that poor woman?

UKIP 908 votes, Greens 593.
