As for Nigel Farage endorsing skipping queues for money, a tweet has not become party policy when I stopped looking, right? :P
A tweet calling a post from another UKIP member a "statement by a health spokesman" is as close to policy as we are going to get from a party who refuse to endorse any policies.

I mean, where are you getting the idea that UKIP are against being part of the EU? All I see are statements by individual party members. You can't say that's representative of party policy, can you?

This is why I don't like memes/references. If you haven't heard the joke before, you're a moron! Hooray! :I

I couldn't phrase my answer right, so instead I accidentally stumbled upon a small realization in the field of social psychology <.<

Of all the jokes, only one was a reference. The joke of wind turbine PMs is that the implacable march of the green party shall leave us with more turbines than men, hence why our overlord would be harnessing the winds for political power.
Neptune's symbol is the trident, the joke is that Britain would sooner turn its most potent weapon against itself than give birth to abominations like the green tea party. Seppuku is ritual suicide, sudoku is often interchanged with seppuku to deliberately make others laugh through their sense of superiority as the other clearly does not know sudoku is a world famous puzzle. No one is calling you a moron, it's quite the opposite too in that it's self depreciatory humour, if I'm implying anyone's a moron it's me.
Pleased to hear you hate memes too.  It's always welcoming to hear.

Of course not, dear fellow! But that's because it is part of the policy. You know, the already existing one? Other stuff may change, but I doubt that will. :P
A tweet, however, simply isn't. In fact, in regards to health care, they endorse free dental and eye checks. They want to make the NHS more organised, especially in terms of procurement, and resources. They also want it possible to use private health care, if it is wished.

They speak of a voucher system. "UKIP proposes introducing a voucher system that will enable people to receive treatment outside of the NHS"

And Graknorke, don't worry about Wind Turbines. Whilst a party's position can change, it seems that the recent urgent demand for them has slackened. There are more restrictions on setting 'em up.
It's not specifically wind turbines I'm worried about. It's more the way the position was stated as being different on two different official sources at the same time. It's unprofessional.
Though the attitude to the environment does concern me actually.

Now, now, they don't generally limit their rhetoric to "thieving" or even really "scrounging", do they?
