Perhaps it’s true that when certain men cannot win an argument against a woman, they will introduce jokes (and sometimes - although not in this particular case) actual threats of rape.
I wonder if it’s merely a diversionary tactic, like when people ignore an argument and attempt to reframe the narrative to suit their own agenda?

//well it wont help but it was made 3 years ago, why has it come up now?//
It wasn't just three years ago. He's still doing it:

Here is the video (you can find the full one elsewhere on youtube):
As for 'why now' - he only joined UKIP last year, and wasn't a candidate for election until now. Before that he was just an internet troll who made money with crappy reaction videos.

I think it may have come up now because of Mr Benjamin’s high profile as a candidate in the Euro elections (see also below). The background being that when Ms Phillips had highlighted the number of threats of rape she’d had from twitter morons, he said that he wouldn’t even ... well you know ...
Then compounded it more recently by saying he might be tempted in certain circumstances.
Whether you blame social media for this partly I’m not sure. It probably has to be up UKIP to ban him, but their leader is either too weak or complaisant with his views to do anything.

"All this rubbish about a person making a jokingly comment. "
It's not a jokingly comment. A jokingly comment is fine. What isn't is making rape seem like a suitable topic for joke. Disgraceful.
Regarding Magi, different times, and we can't prove anyone said that and we certainly can't prove anyone with political ambition said that. This however, is black and white boom, there it is.
