I just saw that on the BBC news and WTFed...

Does he somehow think random Libyans in liferafts can get back to Libya without their boats.

Looks like the one silverish lining is that the "like-minded parties" from other EU nations all hate each other as well as brown people. Nationalism defeats its self in a coalition of nations. Nifty.

All the gap year kids would be boating from Libya then. Ten to a boat, or something, to make the numbers worthwhile.

You and what navy, mate?

"I don't think the EU is in the business of murdering people at sea."

Best response of the day. Hilarious.

I do rather enjoy myself when Griffin actually speaks in public. It's almost always a rib-tickling own goal which does nothing to improve his own party's standing with anyone except the positively sociopathic. So defending people's right to free speech has genuine value beyond the purely ethical.

I'm also amused to see that my prediction about the alignments of right-wing groups in the EUP has turned out roughly as I expected; less amused that my suspicions about UKIP have been somewhat vindicated.

Hooray for free speech! Now everyone can see what a complete fuckwit he is!
