Fruitcakes and Loonies


The Daily Record ran a story the other day which exposed the antics of another creepy Ukippper, Jason Smith the 'chairman' of Ukip in Bradford apparently.

I read somewhere the other day that some senior boffin at Ukip HQ spends half his time weeding out membership applications from assorted 'weirdos' and 'crazy' people.

If that's correct, then all I can say is that an awful lot of fruitcakes and loonies appear to have slipped through the net.



UKIP candidate offers to pay for Facebook friend's holiday 'in exchange for sex'

BRADFORD and district chairman Jason Smith begged an unnamed woman online to let him see her in a bikini.

Scandal: UKIP's Jason Smith, left, and party leader Nigel Farage

ANOTHER member of UKIP has stirred up a fresh sleaze scandal for Nigel Farage’s party after offering to pay for a woman’s holiday if she slept with him.

In a string of messages sent openly by Bradford South candidate Jason Smith on his Facebook page to an unnamed woman, he begs to see her in a bikini.

And when she says she can squeeze into his holiday suitcase, he responds by inviting her along, writing: “As long as I can sleep with you."

When the Sunday Mirror contacted Mr Smith, 43, he shrugged off the incident, saying: “We all do it.”

It is the latest controversy to hit UKIP after general secretary Roger Bird, 41, was accused of sexually harassing Natasha Bolter, 35.

Last night Labour MP Chi Onwurah said of Mr Smith’s Facebook exchanges: “These comments are utterly inappropriate on a platform where anyone can see them – even children.

“This shows more and more that UKIP see women in sexist stereotypes. Their attitudes to women are rather out of touch with the lives of real women today.

“The more scrutiny there is, the more we see what UKIP candidates and their politicians really think about people – men and women, black and white – and why they’re not fit to represent this country today.”

Mr Smith, the party’s Bradford and district chairman since 2004, has claimed his constituency is a key seat in the May 2015 General Election.

His personal Facebook page is plastered with UKIP logos and anti-Labour propaganda.

But just over 12 months ago, he used the same profile to exchange the sexually charged messages with the woman.

In one, he describes her as a “special friend” after writing: “LOL – actually the thought of seeing you in a bikini might be worth paying for you.”

He continued: “I am prepared to pay for you (put up with you) to go on holiday with me as long as I can sleep with you (I’ve secretly always wanted to be in pain) ROFL!!”

Responding to a comment, he says: “I f’kin miss you too – still remember the day you told me about your ladies bits – lol! Hope you’re life is great, your [sic] a gem. Shalom!! x”

In an online biography, Mr Smith brags he has an IQ of 155 and describes himself as a lecturer and philosopher.

Last night he accused opposition parties of “stalking” UKIP members, saying: “The woman is one of my best friends.

"Real people in the real world will look at this and think, ‘We all do this sort of thing, we all have banter on social media, we all have friends of the opposite sex’.

“I’m basically being stalked by other parties because they don’t have an answer to our policies.”

Earlier this week Roger Bird released intimate text messages alleged to have been from mum-of-three Ms Bolter as he fought to prove he had had a consensual sexual relationship with.

Ms Bolter claimed he had propositioned her and tried to kiss her as she was seeking selection for a target seat.
