SOme of you may be aware of the ongoing news story regarding Roger Bird, general secretary of UKIP and recently suspended over allegations of sexual harassment towards another UKIP candidate, Natasha Bolter. http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2014/dec/09/ukips-suspended-roger-bird-denies-sexual-harassment Bird claimed that there was a consensual relationship between them. Bolter denied this. Bird released texts and e-mails to him from Bolter that seem to indicate some degree of intimacy prior to the sexual harassment claim. But the latest turn is this: Natasha Bolter claims to have red PPE (Philosophy, Politics, Economics) at Oxford; Oxford says she hasn't. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/oxford-university-rejects-natasha-bolters-ppe-degree-claims-as-roger-bird-ukip-sex-scandal-rolls-on-9917027.html
So just what is going on? Now, I may be a bit cynical when it comes to politics but I think it no accident nor coincidence that Natasha Bolter was a former Labour supporter. I seriously suspect that this sexual harassment claim was a stitch-up from the start. EDIT: Plot thickens; seems Bolter may still be a paid up member of the Labour Party.

Sounds like a plot from "Where Eagles Dare", place an agent to destroy a party within. Nothing surprises me with the Labour party. Then and again, Mr Bird has published texts and e-mails which he claims show he was in a consensual relationship with Ms Bolter between 18 September and 2 November, when he said he requested it should end. As the old saying goes, A Woman Scorned......................... |

Looks like a Labour attempt to discredit UKIP, something I expected the main parties would start doing sooner than later. Good thing it has failed. Note though how now the allegations are increasingly suspect this story has began to fade from the headlines? The establishment's media buddies hoping the public will only remember the initial headline story which undermines UKIP rather than the new developments which exonerates them.

The woman is a career mole, and enlisted with Labour to do the same there, as with UKIP. D Green had his mole in the immigration office, likely there are more moles than honest advisers. When the stakes are so high everything is possible, even Mata Hari seductresses with a living to make. Edited by Affa, Dec 12 2014, 05:52 PM.

I agree . My instincts suggest that it is a stitch up ,and the evidence so far suggests it is so. Her credentials seem to suggest that she was a left wing, anti racist, anti UKIP placement who has revealed herself too soon. Her identity and background seems to be so opposed to the UKIP agenda. |

Cleared by an "independent HR expert"? ![]() Might as well have got a five year old to conduct the inquest! He's still buggering off though, presumably to avoid lingering suspicion and the rather odious smell. Edited by Tigger, Dec 24 2014, 10:22 AM.

Why would Labour want to destroy UKIP? I suspect it is the Tories and the right wing media up to all the dirty tricks. |

The Establishment PS. The same people who infiltrate any and all protest groups. It is how they maintain control, are able to dictate. Where the main parties are concerned, these are already 'Part' of the Establishment ......... and UKIP itself will be also, eventually. |

Anyone with a modicum of intelligence and an ability to read can see that UKIP is a neo liberalist , elitist wolf in sheep's ( worried working class people who demand a easy solution to their perceived problems) clothing. Why the major parties need to resort to dirty tricks says more about them than UKIP. |

I seriously do suspect the State responsible, and no particular party. UKIP are a threat to the Establishment, their desire to remain in the EU ...... that Establishment is far more than Political parties, Whitehall, CBI, MI5, Press, - you name it and the State has control of it. It will take control of UKIP too eventually, as improbable as that must seem at this juncture. |

Natasha Bolter is a card carrying Labour activist who claims to have read PPE (PHILOSOPHY, Politics, Economics), we all now know she is a liar, yet PS believes it is the Tories and the right wing media up to all the dirty tricks. Why would Labour want to destroy UKIP? Because they are a serious threat especially up North. Edited by jaguar, Dec 30 2014, 01:05 PM.

Apologies, Natasha Bolter WAS a card carrying Labour activist. And of course you have proof that she is not still a card carrying Labour activist |

I continue to be amazed at how quickly the Usuals resort to claims of conspiracy. It cannot possibly true therefore it must be a conspiracy. |

If the woman were a Labour activists, a party member, a committed Socialist, none of that is proof that the Party were involved in her deceit. I have stated that the most likely accomplices were the State police, the ones that put moles into any and all political organisations, protest groups. The motive for these plants is invariably 'money'. Edited by Affa, Dec 30 2014, 05:36 PM.
