He sounded like he was one step short of being a clinically insane bond villain in that speech, and that picture of him doesn't exactly do him any favours either. It's possibly the most evil face I've ever seen.

The speech was also incredibly blinkered and one sided. It came across less as a reasoned view on things to come, and more as a hatefilled maniac trying to justify his own stance. That's probably why he was told to fuck off.

The problem is that people just don't understand immigration, and see it only as a threat. It's only a threat if you're not prepared to accept it.

What's he on about?
