LAST Sunday on the Andrew Marr Show was a business man Luke Johnson who argued very persuasively against the European Union.
He used facts and projections and although I profoundly disagreed with him one could see some people would be persuaded by him.
Contrast this with local UKIP members’ letters that are full of bile, attacks and very little in the way of facts.
Take for instance Bill Williams’ letter “We should leave Europe.”
He opens it with an insult: “I see the subservient nodding donkey stay in The European Disunion brigade are creeping out of the woodwork” and ends on an insulting attack on the German chancellor “mad woman Merkel.”
In between he writes a letter with no facts and some lies he has been fooled into believing by the propaganda in his choice of news media.
