Another UN official who makes me more likely to vote Ukip

The latest half-witted United Nations official to stick the boot into the United Kingdom is one Francois Crepeau, UN ‘Special Rapperteur’ (nope, sorry, don’t recognise the term), on the Rights of Human Migrants.

Crepeau, who comes from the useless part of Canada, said that British fears about immigration were ‘utter bullshit’. He added that if the British people voted for Ukip it would ‘not be cool’. Mr Crepeau’s intervention made me 30 per cent more likely to vote Ukip next May – and if Farage suggested we leave the UN as well as the EU, make that fifty per cent.

Crepeau is the third UN official to have decided recently that of the many problems facing the world – famine, drought, Muslim maniacs decapitating people, warfare, torture, dictatorships etc — the appalling UK is undoubtedly the most pressing.
