~~~~~~~~~~#########~~~~~~~~~~

Hi,

'HUMOUR RARELY GOES UN-NOTICED IN POLITICS!'

Such a pity that Nigel Farage leader of The EFD in The EU and UKIP when in Britain behaved like an ill mannered schoolboy in his speech attacking the whey faced non entity van Rumpoy that has gained such notoriety and for which he was rightly called to account.

It is particularly sad that his words regarding von Rumpuy were so very true yet despite Farage's well displayed competence as a speaker and his obvious humour he so demeaned Britain by his behaviour at the time as do a number of his parasites in The EFD/UKIP on a regular basis with their outspoken support for racism, anti Judaism and sexual intollerance which they financially aid.

UKIP's associates in the EU in Farage's EFD make the posturings of The BNP (which seems on the verge of implosion despite UKIP help) seem pretty tame.

Here is Farage at his best in humour terms:
UKIP: Twit-twhoo are you, Mr van Rompuy?

From the official website:

Herman van Rompuy's Twitter efforts brought a wry smile to the face of UKIP Leader Nigel Farage.

The European Council president, tweeted a haiku:

"In the dead of night/an owl's hoot echoes in the void. / Hardly a soul listens.
Twitter

Mr Farage said in response: "Hermann Van Rompuy has just tweeted the world's shortest autobiography.

"When I read it, I immediately thought, 'Just like you old boy'. Van Rompuy IS a hoot... and no-one listens.
His plans to save the Euro in its present form are like a hoot before the raging bull of the financial markets. Totally useless.

"I see that German support for the EU has fallen to an all-time low and only 4 per cent of Germans know who Herman Van Rompuy is.

"I am sure, if it had not been for my speech last year, only 2 per cent of the people would know of him. I did the man a huge favour... for which they fined me.

"Last February, I told van Rompuy 'No-one ever heard of you. Who are you?' It appears I was right."
Would that UKIP concentrated on the job for which they were elected eg. campaigning to get Britain out of The EU rather than making fools of themselves stuffing their pockets on the gravy train and supporting http://thebnp.blogspot.com/ and other extremists.

It is astonishing that after 17 years UKIP has merely capitalised on the corruption of MPs as perceived - has only 2 MEPs left who reject extremism (Mike Nattrass MEP, Nikki Sinclaire MEP) and has only 14 elected Councillors out of some 19,500 available elected seats!

As a long term supporter of UKIP I find this a tragic betrayal of the aims and principles of the members at large by the self serving leadership and its salaried praise singers.

#NF029* - 02-Dec-2010 - Justin ADAMS Pilot in Court & Nigel FARAGE MEP of UKIP

#NF029* - 02-Dec-2010 - Justin ADAMS Pilot in Court & Nigel FARAGE MEP of UKIP

Hi,

Having spoken with Justin Adams at some length in July, when he called me for assistance after the accident
&
Read
Air Accident Report: 11/2010 G-BWDF EW/G2010/05/03 - UKIP Banner Dragging!
which can be seen if you CLICK HERE
also







CLICK HERE not only found but shows in some detail.

There is no doubt that the accident had marked effects on both Adams and Farage.

Justin Adams, as the pilot, had nothing but praise for Farage - which I have written about elsewhere. Farage had taken the attitude that there are two of us in this mess - you are a trained pilot and no doubt have no desire to die - admitting there was nothing he could do other than tighten his seat belts and take on an ashen silence!

May I remind readers that Farage suggested avoiding the village of Charlton, adding to their own risk but minimising the risk to others - FOR WHICH FARAGE & ADAMS are to be commended.

Hanging upside down in his straps and concussed Farage's comment that he could do with a fag - may well be interpreted as a death threat in view of the 90liters of fuel pouring over the pilot which led to hypothermia and also the fuel was running over Farage! Fortunately Farage had the presence of mind to avoid indulgence - that alone seems unusual!!

I do appreciate that Justin Adams at the first opportunity advised Farage that he was heavily insured and expected Farage to capitalise on this fact.

Adams was also far from happy at the delays by the aurthorities in producing their report exhonourating him - if ANY criticism could be laid at his door it would be the judgement call of landing on the grass to avoid sparking when the manual suggests landing on tarmac to exploit the reduced friction and probability of flipping.

Yes Adams was annoyed at two things the first he openly voiced, being the slow progress of the authorities the second - minded that he is a Tory and knows little of Farage he wanted to check Farage's phone number - though I gathered he had intentionally distanced himself so as not to damage any claim Farage may wish to make.

I am also aware that Farage claimed that last Friday complaining they were harrassing him or some such. It seems he had been phoned once and personally contacted also as openly reported.

I would not be remotely surprised if Justin Adams had been verbally 'difficult'.

Justin Adam's experienced an air crash - such traumas have different effects on different people.

A frioend of mine has only just started requiring serious treatment for the flash back effect of his experiences in Aden as a Para sniper - I can well understand how he feels just as a friend of mine spent days talking with me when he was blown to bits in The Falklands. My own Father woke at least once a week with nightmares from his time as a fighter pilot and the work he did in the liberation of Bergen Bergen Belsen whilst with 350 Squadron - that continued until he died in his 80s.

Everyone reacts to trauma differently.

Justin Adams hung upside down soaked in fuel whilst his arm was trapped against the exhaust burning! Justin Adams has been in and out of hospital several times with damage to the digestive tract - he has lost several stone in weight and his livelihood has been trashed - he owned the plane and it was a write-off.

Sadly during this trauma Justin Adams found himself facing a divorce.

Yes I can understand Justin Adams behaving stupidly but based on my conversations with him and the opinions of friends who have spoken to him I rather hope the Court will consider the background to the claimed accusations.

May I remind everyone that my comments are NOT definitive but are based on some experience.

There is of course the possibility that we have unearthed a mad axe man or worse still created one but I have my doubts ;-)

I believe it would be irresponsible of me to provide further facts or speculation as the case is now 'Sub Judice' and justice may be denied by the speculation of those with insufficient information.

#NF028* - 01-Dec-2010 - Justin Adams pilot in Court re: Nigel FARAGE



Crash pilot 'threatened to kill UKIP's Nigel Farage'

Wreckage of plane crash in Steane 
The plane crashed after a banner trailing behind it became entangled with the tail-fin

Related stories

The pilot of the plane which crashed with UKIP leader Nigel Farage on board has been charged with threatening to kill him in a separate incident.
The aircraft came down in Hinton-in-the Hedges airfield, Northamptonshire, on 6 May - the day of the general election.
Justin Adams, 45, from Faringdon, Oxford, appeared before magistrates in the city on Tuesday charged with two counts of making threats to kill.
He was remanded in custody to appear before the same court on 7 December.
No plea was entered.
It is believed the second count Mr Adams faces relates to the threatening of an aviation official.
The pilot was arrested at his home by Thames Valley Police on Sunday and charged the following day.
An Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) report said the crash happened when the banner trailing behind the plane became entangled in the tail-fin.
Nigel Farage  
Nigel Farage was campaigning to become an MP at the time of the air crash
 
This caused the plane's nose to drop, the report said.
Although Mr Adams "maintained some control of the aircraft" he could not prevent it crashing, the report added.
Mr Farage suffered broken ribs, bruised lungs and facial injuries, while Mr Adams was trapped in the wreckage of the aircraft for a time and also needed hospital treatment.
Mr Farage was campaigning against Commons Speaker John Bercow for the constituency of Buckingham at the time of the crash. He failed to take the seat from Mr Bercow.

Synopsis
During an attempt to tow a banner the tow line became wrapped around the tailplane, causing a nose down elevator input. The pilot maintained some control of the aircraft but could not prevent it from impacting the ground.

History of the flight
© Crown copyright 2010 67
AAIB Bulletin: 11/2010 G-BWDF EW/G2010/05/03
Figure 1.

The aircraft took off from Runway 06 at Hinton-in-the-Hedges for the purpose of towing an advertising banner.

The pilot was sitting in the left seat and the right seat was occupied by a person intending to receive text messages from colleagues on the ground giving locations where the banner could be shown to maximum effect.

The pilot made two attempts to engage the banner during which the grapple hook attached to the aircraft failed to engage the banner tow line.

An observer on the ground advised that the grapple hook had deployed correctly but was unsteady in the aircraft’s slipstream. The pilot made two more unsuccessful passes before positioning for a further attempt.

He reported that during the final pass the aircraft was at the correct height and speed and was aligned correctly between two pick-up poles that held the tow line off the ground for grappling.

As the aircraft passed the poles, the pilot initiated a sharp pull-up, applied full power and glanced over his right shoulder to see whether the grapple hook had engaged the tow line. He recalled seeing the tow line “snake” upwards between the trailing edge of the wing and the leading edge of the tailplane and loop over the elevator.
When the slack in the tow line had been taken up and the banner was in the air, the pilot found that the control column was being pulled forward with a force that required both hands to resist. 

He managed to hold the aircraft level at what he estimated to be approximately 300 ft agl and, as there was nowhere to land straight ahead, decided to fly a circuit and approach the grass north of the main runway. 

The recommended procedure to be applied in the event that the tow line hooked around the main landing gear or tail wheel was to fly a steep approach so that the aircraft remained below the banner until touchdown. The pilot judged that insufficient nose-up pitch authority remained to attempt a steep approach and decided instead that a shallow flapless approach would be controllable.

When the aircraft was approximately 35 ft agl on final approach, the control column was pulled forward with a force that the pilot could not resist. Then, as the nose dropped, the forward pressure on the control column reduced and he was able to raise the nose to achieve a level attitude, but this did not prevent the aircraft from hitting the ground with a high rate of descent. The impact separated the engine from its mounts and collapsed the landing gear. 

As the fuselage hit the ground, the front section dug in and the aircraft pivoted forwards, coming to rest inverted. The right seat occupant was able to leave the aircraft after his harness was released by witnesses, but the pilot’s foot was trapped until freed by the attending fire service.

Photographic evidence

A photograph of the aircraft on one of the attempts to engage the tow line showed that the grapple hook had not deployed but was still attached to the aircraft beneath the left side of the cockpit. A later photograph showed the hook trailing behind the aircraft but it was not possible to determine when the hook actually deployed.
Other photographs showed that the tow line was wrapped around the left elevator from the trailing edge to the hinge between the elevator horn balance and the tailplane (see Figure 1, which shows the tow line after cutting by personnel on the ground). Marks on the paint in the internal gap between the tailplane and horn balance were consistent with the tow line rubbing against the two surfaces.
Banner Towing Operations Manual
The operator’s Banner Towing Operations Manual recommended that if the tow line became caught on the aircraft’s main gear leg, the pilot should land:
‘preferably on a hard surface to minimise the ground drag of the banner.’

The manual also stated that a steep approach would:
‘keep the banner at or above the height of the aircraft.’
The procedure did not refer specifically to fouling of the elevator.
Pilot’s assessment of the cause
The pilot operated the hook release mechanism only once and was unaware that the hook had not deployed immediately. Photographic evidence, along with the report from the observer on the ground, suggested that the hook deployed sometime between the first attempt to engage the tow line and the last. However, the pilot believed throughout that the hook had deployed correctly and did not modify his usual technique for engaging the tow line. He believed, therefore, that subsequent events were unlikely to have been caused by the hook’s failure to release immediately.
After the aircraft had picked up the banner, the pilot believed that tension in the tow line combined with its downward angle created a nose down elevator input that he could barely overcome. He considered that on the final approach, the banner made contact with the ground when the aircraft was at approximately 35 ft agl, which increased the tension on the tow line momentarily and pulled the control column forward. 

Tension in the line was relieved as the aircraft descended, allowing him to raise the nose to a level attitude before impact.

#NF025* - Ein Volk Ein Reich Ein Farage - Lebenstraum von EFD
This email has been doing the rounds. Every UKIP MEP was sent a copy. Some were amused, some were not. We at Junius thought that it should receive a wider audience.

Subject: FW: None of the above (including UKIP)


Do take a moment to read this devastating appraisal of Nigel Farage - first published in May of this year.


It would be criminal for a charlatan with a dangerously overheated ego, aka Nigel Farage, to be allowed to continue to lead UKIP???

None of the above (including UKIP)

http://critical-reaction.co.uk/2641/17-05-2010-it-wasn-t-the-squeaker-we-were-promised

Now that he is on the mend, one can ask the question that many have privately asked, but which they have refrained from raising while he was in hospital, out of good taste and also because, bluntly, there have been more important considerations in the political world over the past ten days. But just what in heaven’s name was Nigel Farage doing aboard that plane on election morning?


The polling stations were open in Buckingham, where he was opposing John Bercow in what he had promised would be a hard-fought battle. The tried and tested, efficient way to achieve electoral success is to spend the campaign weeks canvassing for your pledges – identifying your definite or at least, if as desperate as Farage clearly was, your likely supporters – and then concentrating your election day resources ruthlessly upon them in order to maximise your vote. But while the pocket-sized Speaker was tearing round the constituency from dawn on May 6th in his usual fashion, UKIP’s ex-leader was many miles away at an airfield in Northamptonshire, posing for press photos (just in time for Friday’s local papers!) as he strapped himself up and all the while getting out precisely zero per cent of his Buckingham pledges.



It’s arguable whether or not trailing a “Vote UKIP” banner high in the skies around the Home Counties, as was the plan, could ever have been an effective polling day tactic, but, even if could have got the votes out, why did Farage have to be in the plane? Here was the man who said he would “professionalise” his party upon becoming its leader in 2006, neglecting the most elementary requirements of electioneering, the sort that a twelve-year-old could grasp, in order to indulge in what was, in terms of the necessity of his own presence, nothing but a jolly jape at best, and a vanity project at worst.


It’s little wonder that Farage, by his own admission, was so out of touch with the Buckingham voters, absurdly saying, ‘I wasn’t to know just how popular Bercow was with his constituents’, which could have come straight out of the Alex Ferguson Book of Lame Excuses. A quick glance at the archives shows that UKIP had stood candidates against Bercow in at least the two previous elections. Is Farage suggesting that his Buckingham party colleagues had gleaned absolutely nothing about their major opponent in all that time? On the evidence of his own approach to marshalling the vote, perhaps they hadn’t.


Worse still, Farage is so out of touch with Buckingham that, even after the event, he has managed to draw the wrong conclusion. In an election in which none of the major parties stood against the Speaker, over 24,000 people still chose to vote against him (and that’s deliberately not counting those who voted BNP). On any scale, that’s a lot of evidence against Bercow’s overwhelming popularity. The problem for Farage, about which he is conveniently saying nothing, is that two thirds of them chose to express that evidence next to a name other than his own.


Perhaps Farage is simply unaware of the result. Certainly the UKIP press office struggled to interpret it, declaring, in one of the most stupid pieces of spin imaginable, that Farage was ‘the leading candidate amongst the ten who had (challenged) Bercow … in third place behind John Stevens’.


The bigger issue which both Farage and his successor as UKIP leader, Lord Pearson, must address is this: May 2010 was truly the “none of the above” general election, the first in living memory when not one of the main parties could happily let the results speak for themselves. In such circumstances, UKIP ought to have been perfectly positioned as the leading “none of the above” party. If it was unrealistic to expect that it could have matched its vote in the last two European elections, when different factors were at play, it was not unrealistic to expect that it should have polled much better than the 3% that it managed.


But when handed the ball in front of an open field, UKIP, instead of running with it, immediately kicked it into touch. We had the bizarre sight, surely unique in electoral history, of its leader campaigning with another party’s rosette. Equally uniquely and equally bizarrely, Pearson also advised electors to vote for the Tory candidate in a constituency where his own party was standing. That was in Wells, where the Tory candidate still lost. Up the road in Stroud, Farage was doing his bit by backing another rival candidate, Labour this time, describing him as ‘a good egg’ despite the fact that he was shown to have tabled a Commons EDM calling for an EU directive to be tightened up and properly enforced. No matter, he lost too.


What sort of message were all these shenanigans sending out to the electorate? UKIP has long claimed to be the anti-establishment party, yet here it was, backing all sides of the establishment at its own candidates’ expense. One final clue to all this can be found by revisiting that strange interview given by Farage, post-crash (and you take that as a bad pun if you wish). He put his “miscalculation” about Bercow down to the Speaker being ‘somebody who is pretty unpopular amongst the Westminster set’.


And there you have the reason UKIP is missing its current opportunities, in a nice little nutshell. The Westminster set will tell you that Nigel Farage is a common sight around its watering holes these days, both inside and outside the House, a rather sad sight too, given that he sits in another ‘parliament’ a couple of hundred miles away. No wonder then that, on his own admission, Farage’s political antennae are attuned more closely to that set, that establishment, that elite, than to the ordinary voters in Buckingham and up and down the rest of Britain too.

Of course Farage is guided by the Westminster set. He’s part of the Westminster set. And when it comes to the political establishment, UKIP, sad to say, isn’t part of the solution – it’s part of the problem.
