UKIP Firearms Policy

[Geordie bloke]

With regards to the handgun thing, could it be they are referring to it because some time back someone in the UKIP (Farage I think it was) said that they would allow handguns again but didn't mention rifles of any kind?

Hi Blu, I wish they would allow handguns again but our gutless politicians will never in my view allow us to have semi auto pistols or revolvers. We can have black powder revolvers though (whoopee!). I must have missed Farage making that comment which would have gone down like a lead balloon.
Best wishes

Geordie, just googled it and yep he said back in January that he would allow licensed handgun ownership again.

Yup. He said the handgun ban was 'ludicrous'.

...and yet, the Left thought he said: 'I want to arm every man, woman and child in the UK with a gun and force them to carry in the streets'. :lol:

Cheers Blu for that info. What a turn up for the books and who would have believed that any UK politician would say such a thing!
I will wait however for any answer from UKIP and see if they expand on any information before I get all excited and vote for them.

Statements from ukip on firearms are being vastly over analised......

We'd hope the smarter oomans amongst you are actually analysing them rather than using them for rectal insertion...

The words, ooman, have vastly different meanings, though perhaps on reflection both might be considered apposite in this community.

Politicians are masters of double speak and bullshiite,would it not be best to "over analyse" rather than take at face value and see what we want to see, not what is being said or implied?

What politicians say and do are two mutually exclusive things.

You will only ever know a parties "policies" when they have been in government for a few years.
