The royal wedding.

"If and when Bolton departs to create another vacancy, he can leave feeling satisfied about a job well done. Running as a virtual unknown, he won by highlighting his enmity to all forms of extremism, but especially the “infiltration” of Ukip by the far right.

Since exposing racism under deep cover was his goal, here’s one political career that will not end in failure. Thanks to Bolton, a Ukip member has been suspended for racism of sufficient blatancy to earn an invitation to serve at the pleasure of the US President."

Any update? Just to make sure Annie doesn't miss it.

Nothing wrong with saying for flip's sake, is there, Jalima?
Not sure how anyone is supposed to know that that's what it means when written ffs, but never mind.

At 9am R4's Broadcasting House ( 1 min in) said

Ukip has suspended the girlfriend of its leader

If I believed in conspiracy theories then the one that says this is all a plan to get Farage back as UKIP leader sounds good. He's talking about the 2nd referendum reversing the result of the 1st. He's also saying he's broke even though he is still getting his MEP salary. Watch this space.

Thanks mcem and it was said at 7, 8 and 9. And yes WK I’m really fed up with ab’s posts on this thread and that when one of her play ground friends comes out to play it’s to tell me to stop using ffs.FFS. You couldn’t make it up - or wait, ab did make it up but then that’s allowed

I was asleep at 6.00am

R4 News Headlines 14/01/2018 ( 1 min 18 secs in)

Ukip has suspended the girlfriend of the party leader Henry Bolton after she reportedly made offensive remarks about Prince Harry's fiancee Meghann Markle. The Mail on Sunday has published text messages sent by Jo Marney which include gerogatory comments about Miss Markle and ethnic minorities. Miss Marney has apologised unreservedly but said her text messages had been taken out of context.

That is exactly what was said this morning at 6am.

I wouldn't use it here because I wouldn't use it at anytime in any company or when alone but accept some do use it as easily as I used damn

What is wrong with using FFS? The fact that it's not used a lot on GN surely shows the strength of feeling by the user when it is used. Personally I certainly don't object to the use of WTF either, but I wouldn't use it regularly.

I’m not sure what Jal is trying to convey?

Come on, jalima. Nothing wrong with saying ffs, is there?

Well as long as she didn’t say ffs there won’t be anything offensive to worry about will there?

The Mail on Sunday has published a series of messages sent by Jo Marney. according to the BBC News

Well, what d'ya know!

eaztbee hummmm let’s think - continually repeating false information; implying someone is a liar or using ffs - what shall I criticise as offensive? Hahahahaha FFS

Don’t forget that Bolton’s girl friend has tweeted many racists remarks prior to the latest and UKIP was fine with that.

That have got annoyed this time because it involved 5he Royal family

Maryliza, will you please stop using 'FFS'.
Using initials doesn't stop it being offensive.

Well carry on posting false information and implying I’m a liar - it demonstrates ALL I need to know about you . If what you’ve done on this thread is what you think is right, then you have a very warped idea of what is right and I ( and maybe some of the silent posters) will judge future contributions from you in the knowledge of what you’ve said on this thread. It’s ckearly not worth discussing this any further but your posts on here have been a disgrace.

Suggest as much as you need to maryeliza, I will do as I think is right.

Well ab at the terrible risk of dominating the thread and being bossy and controlling by telling you what to do, might I suggest you read my posts again? The point I was making is that you had the time to repeat false information but not to condemn the racist texts which are beyond disgusting and have not yet been condemned (so far as I know) by the womans partner aka the UKIP leader. Just saying

jura I think we are in total agreement but saying it in different ways

Do re-read my post - I never accused anyone of being a UKIP member, but to seem to be excusing them in the inexcusable.

whitewave , I was replying to another poster not you

annie I am unaware that you have ever supported a UKIP type post. My post wasn’t directed at anyone in particular.

FFS ab - go onto BBC IPlayer - listen to the news headlines for 6, 7,8 and 9 o’clock. Yes you are bloody well accusing me of lying - I’m certainly accusing you of being so bloody minded towards me that your default position is to be totally incapable of believing I could be right - didn’t it cross your mind that I wouldn’t have carried on repeating the FACTS if I hadn’t checked them first? And if denying implicit accusations of lying on several posts is dominating a thread, then if you werent being so obdurate,I wouldn’t have to keep posting would I?
