Ours is an angry age. It's characterized by what Roger Scruton called "ressentiment" (resentment).

I have several hundred books in my personal library that I’ve yet to read. I plan to use the current isolation reality to catch up on some reading. Join me in nourishing your mind. Use this opportunity to dust off some books!

The UK Independence Party is committed to withdrawing Britain from the European Union. As the debate on the new Constitution has now made clear, the EU agenda is complete political union with all the main functions of national government taken over by the bureaucratic institutions of Brussels.Check out Mr. Cusack's post for video clips of the party's leader, Nigel Farage (wiki; his campaign website)
UKIP believes that this is not only bad for Britain's economy and prosperity, but it is an alien system of government that will ultimately prove to be totally unacceptable to the British people. UKIP would replace Britain's membership of the European Union with the kind of agreements on free trade and co-operation that we thought we had signed up to when we first joined what was then called the European Economic Community..
The UK Independence Party is the fourth largest political party in the UK. We currently have 10 members of the European Parliament who use their positions exclusively to expose the true nature of the EU and to campaign for British withdrawal. Our party has a full range of policies including a firm line on immigration. A policy of non-discrimination is enshrined in our constitution.
His political philosophy:
Nigel’s Political Philosophy
“Successive British governments have, without the permission of the British electorate, continued to ignore public opinion in driving forward to sign up to a European superstate. Working in the European parliament has given me an insight into the excesses of the bureaucratic nightmare that exists in Brussels. I feel that the time has come for a return to honest politics in this country, where an elected representative tells his voters the truth and does not support his party to the detriment of the country. The fraud and waste that is endemic in the EU is an abomination. My seat in the EU parliament gives me an opportunity to report these facts to the British public and, as a member of the Fisheries Committee, I am in a position to fight for British fishermen whose livelihoods have been sacrificed in order to assuage the fishing industries of the other member states.
“In terms of domestic politics I think you could call me a Libertarian. This means I believe in the freedom of the individual to control their own lives and to make the best of themselves. And it’s not just about how we spend our own money either. Whether we want to smoke cigarettes, hunt foxes or ride fast motorbikes should be our choice and not the government’s. Of course that does not mean absolute license. Every country needs a framework of laws and rules within which its people can live their lives, but that framework should not be too oppressive. In recent times the state blanket of rules and regulations in Britain has become too overpowering and too intrusive, and we need to role it back - decisively. I am pleased to say that UKIP's domestic policies are formed very much in this same Libertarian mould, and as Leader I would do my best to make sure it stays that way.
“My vision is a free people in a free country. For all of our history we resisted invasion and our people resisted tyranny. Our country is the home of modern democracy and a major exporter of liberty to the rest of the world. It is intolerable that after all our forebears have done for us, today’s political leaders should be replacing national independence with subservience to the EU, and individual liberty with an authoritarian collective state. I will fight both of these tooth and nail.”
