/// Communities Secretary Eric Pickles accused Mr Farage of ‘pandering to peoples’ worst fears’ and branded his comments ‘irresponsible and wrong’. ///
/// But Mr Pickles said the comments were ‘irresponsible and wrong’, and accused the Ukip leader of both ‘running down’ Britain and ‘pandering to peoples’ worst fears’. ///
Notice that Mr Pickles falls short of saying "it is all lies".

Well, given recent events at Tower Hamlets,
http://
videos of Muslim youths telling Caucasian people to leave certain areas and the Police admitting they did nothing concrete for years at Rotherham through a fear of being labelled racist would tend to prove Farage's point.
As a politician with a looming General Election he's bound to play on these facts, facts that Pickles appeared not to deny outright.

While I am at it, can anyone tell me when and where "Sharia Law" has prevented FGM prosecutions please.
"Mr Farage said the imposition of Sharia law meant there had been no prosecutions for the ‘tens of thousands’ of female genital mutilations carried out in Britain"
Is it any wonder that Americans have these hackneyed ideas of how we all live here in Britain, when people like Farage insists on running our country down, in order to gain short term advantages in the run-up to a General Election. Far be it for me to defend Mr Pickles but he has my support here.

I wonder if Mr Pickles, or for that matter most MPs would be prepared to actually walk through a housing estate in a large city. No, they are too wrapped up in their comfy safe houses. They are so far removed from real life they haven't a clue what is going on out there. This annoys the hell out of me and makes me want to stand for election !
Read it again mikey, Farage never said that, AOG did.
This is what Farage actually said:
In an interview with US news channel Fox News, Mr Farage said the authorities had turned a ‘blind eye’ to the growth of ghettos where ‘the police and all the normal agents of the law have withdrawn and that is where Sharia law has come in’.

Chili...I was quoting the DM article, not AOG. AOG may not have said these two next things but the DM said that Farage did ::::
Top of the page bullet point :::
"The UKIP leader claimed British cities are being run under Sharia Law"
Further down the page :::
"Mr Farage said the imposition of Sharia law meant there had been no prosecutions for the ‘tens of thousands’ of female genital mutilations carried out in Britain"
I haven't paraphrased the DM, instead I have quoted in full. But I shan't quote the DM again, without checking its validity with you first !
To answer AOG's original question...is Farage telling the truth ?.....well it transpires that no, he isn't. He appears to be using a witches brew of hyperbole, exaggeration, and complete lies, in order to whip up racial unrest, in the run-up to the May election.
To make matters worse, he chose an notoriously gullible audience, the American media and the American people, in order to do achieve this.
Well done Nigel...another foot in mouth triumph !
