Not me, I'm afraid, but I was just sat at the window table of my favourite restaurant on Rochester High Street watching a black guy absolutely berating the UKIP supporters outside their campaign headquarters. I couldn't hear anything of what he was saying as he was a few doors down, but the body language was incredibly passionate. A couple of customers who'd popped out came back in to say he was brilliant, and that Farage had been there for at least part of it - result!

The owner was sat at the next table and commented he was hoping Farage would pop in so he could refuse to serve him :)

(Rochester isn't my constituency, I'm in the next one over, Chatham and Aylesford, so unfortunately I don't get the pleasure of casting a vote against their candidate, Mark Reckless, who while he was Tory MP for Rochester responded to a TV interview with me on disability hate crime by saying that people were entitled to feel angry at disabled benefit claimants - Reckless by name, Reckless by nature, he'll fit well in UKIP).

When discussing politics, in whatever country, it seems the prefatory warning, "Really-not-The-Onion" is always advisable. RECKLESS!
