Anti-migrant party leader hires Poles - Sunday Times

Via Conservative Home, how Roger Knapman of the UK Independence Party, which campaigned against increased immigration in 2005, referring to the "Labour government’s untenable excuse ... that we need large numbers of immigrant workers", has hired Polish builders to work on his house in Coryton in Devon, paying them £50 per day, half the pay you would give a British builder. Knapman sourced the men through his son, who runs a company in Poland to bring Polish builders to the UK!

Apparently, they work much harder than anyone in the UK - "like an army of ants" - and Knapman told the undercover reporter that he could help arrange for teams of east Europeans to do building work through his son's company.

What a hypocrite. I wonder how many people will take his party seriously now.
