UKIP’s European allies

The United Kingdom Independence Party are the largest members of the Europe of Freedom and Democracy group in the European Parliament. Amongst their European allies are Dansk Folkeparti (DF or the Danish People’s Party).

DF have published an advert:

After you’ve finished finding the poor photo manipulation (look at the swords…), it’s worth reading the text. In English, it reads:

Headline
NO to large mosques in Danish Cities!
GUARANTEE

Text
As a bolt of lightning from a clear and peaceful Danish summer sky, the politicians in the City of Copenhagen the other day decided to construct a large mosque in the middle of town.
Only the Danish People’s Party Voted against!
The money comes from, among others, the terror-regime Iran, but none of the other parties cared about that.
In three years another giant mosque – on Amager and financed by the dictatorship Saudi Arabia – a reality, if the citizens don’t say stop.
In other Danish towns there are plans*
We give you a guarantee: The more representatives from the Danish People’s Party that get into/are elected to your city council at the November 17th elections, the more resistance against the strongholds of Islamism there will be, also in your city

Vote Danish – locally as well

* my correspondent says that this most likely refers to the local-planning regulations, i.e. there are plans which don’t allow for the building of large mosques. But then again, they also don’t allow for large malls either.

The advert also appears on DF’s website under the headline ‘terrorist lairs’.

The Conservatives would not allow the Danish People’s Party (or the Italian Northern League) to join the EC&R group because of their open xenophobia. UKIP seem to have no such problems.

The thirteen UK MEPs sit alongside nine from Italy’s Lega Nord, two each from Lithuania’s Order & Justice Party, the Greek Popular Orthodox Rally and the Danish People’s Party and one each from the True Finns, Mouvement pour la France, the Netherlands’ Reformed Political Party and the Slovak National Party.

My suspicion is that UKIP may become nuttier without a recognisable, charismatic leader like Nigel Farage. I hope they don’t go for the anti-Islam meme that their Danish allies have.

xD.

A tip of the hat to my good friend and all round bad-ass, David Willumsen, for sending me the link and the translation
