    All ex tories and in with the tories.

    I can't believe a once-proud town fell into believing this posh thatcher-fanatics rubbish.

    They have been conned. Some are waking up and realising it's ********.

    A lot refusing to let go and accept they've been had.

    I know many of the reasons are because they are believing all this immigration tripe. You speak to the people individually and they’ll give it all the immigrants ballacks.

    I would like to see all of these people work the hours some immigrants do and for little money.

    British jobs for British people.

    I've met a few through the years and have never had an issue with anyone. Sometimes the language barrier was there but a little effort and football usually solved that.

    They're not the enemy.

    It's funny in a tragic way because the same Barnsley folk lauding Farage will have moaned in the past about the rest of the country not treating them/the town seriously - is it any wonder when so many wear their ignorance /xenophobia as a badge of honour, dragging the rest of us down with them.

    His visit is vindicated in that we are approaching pantomime season. We need Boris now as the other Ugly sister and then Corbyn can be Cinderella

    Unfortunately we have plenty of people who will welcome him in our town. A sad indictment if our education system.

    Gone are the days when any Tory trying to canvass was run out of town , seem to remember Geoffrey Archer having to make a hasty exit from the precinct one year.

    No matter how much people slag him - he still remains the most influential politician of the last decade.

    Unfortunately journalists will walk past and ignore the vast majority of Barnsley’s sensible people to get to the idiots at the back for a comment.
    Ps we should be sticking coal not dole stickers all over Brexit propaganda. Nigel will love that being a Thatcher babe .

    Whats the level of migrant numbers in Barnsley, just out of curiosity?

    Cotswolds aside... it feels like one of the least diverse places in the country.

    Probably why there is so much ignorance and intolerance.

    Yet the people they blame (immigrants) are not to blame for austerity, zero-hour contracts, and 40% council cuts.

    It's actually 3% of Barnsley's population that are non-British nationals.

    He’s not influential enough to get voted anywhere .
    It’s only the media and those influenced by the media that think that he’s influential truth is the people speak when he tries for office .

    maybe so. Also if we didn’t spend time destroying their homes not so many would come over here.
