LOL: Bizarre, Paranoid, Email from UKIP's Alan Bigwood to a Potential Christian Voter

In April a friend - tired of Nigel Farage and UKIP bollocking on about Christian values and beliefs wrote to UKIP seeking to find out whether Nigel himself actually went to church. It was a fairly straightforward request (see below). However, in typical style, the reply from UKIP's Alan Bigwood was anything but. His bizarre conspiracy laden ramble of half truth, no truth and downright lie reveals much about a party that claims to be progressive and liberal but is in fact anything but. Between the Marxist conspiracies and Urban myths,  perhaps the most telling thing of all is that Bigwood fails to actually answer the question at all. To UKIP Head Office Z** P*******

Hi There It's been so refreshing to see UKIP actively seek the Christian vote and to try to put in place policies that will directly appeal to followers of Christ.  I am a former Conservative voter who became disenchanted with David Cameron after his comments in which he said his faith "came and went". I and my husband C****  are now both actively considering voting UKIP. Can you just confirm for me that Nigel himself is an active church goer and where does he go to church? Thank you and Gods Blessings Upon You Z** and C****

Dear Z** & C****, Many thanks for getting in touch with us, and for your support. UKIP is firmly in favour of maintaining our culture and our heritage, and an integral part of that is of course the recognition of the huge impact that Christianity has had (sometimes with mixed results, it's true) upon our history for probably the last 1,200 years. UKIP was the only Party to oppose Gay Marriage and although that political battle has been lost in the House of Commons, we are the only Party that is still seriously concerned about the (inevitable) pressure regarding Gay Marriage that will be exerted onto schools and churches, if they don't "toe the line" and start teaching that traditional ideas of Marriage are outdated and "so Last Century". The trouble with "progressives" is that they are so far out in front that they lose contact with everyone else, and they even come to think that it is incumbent on everyone else to "catch up". But when they are leading the way over a cliff, "catching up" is not always a good plan. I must also make the point that UKIP is the only Party that wants to pull out of the EU, and yet the EU's Constitution made absolutely zero mention of Christianity. The architecture of the Parliament building in Strasbourg was deliberately designed to represent the Tower of Babel, signifying "unfinished business".  This isn't some zany conspiracy theory.  The EU is quite open about it and makes no concealment of that.   Man is in charge, not God. They even point out the scaffolding bars (part of the structure) winding around at the top, ready for the next level, should Man choose to go up another storey. The EU is secular, Marxist in origin, and a self-serving Customs Union.  One small  (actually large) example:  the West African (native) fishing industry in countries such as Mauretania, Senegal etc has pretty much been wrecked. Corrupt Governments all down the coast have sold off their Fishing Grounds to the EU Armada, which comes along, sweeps the seas clean, and disappears again, leaving a raped wasteland. The local fishermen are left standing open-mouthed on the seashore. Teach me to fish and I will live forever? I am not sure what church Nigel attends but he often confirms his Christian belief.
