    Read this earlier - must surely be more to it than the kids were taken away simply because the parents were UKIP members ?

    you would hope so, and i know it was the Telegraph...however, I wouldnt put it past Ed's political correct fascists.

  • I don't know SE9, when I went to sign up to UKIP I did notice article 15 of its constitution states that you have to eat at least one foreigner a month OR 2 small ethnic children.
  • I would take kids off people for reading the Daily Mail...

  • Seems quite reasonable to me.
    They oppose multi culturalism which the council want in their foster parents. They could always approach other foster organisations that don't take that stance.
  • I wonder what UKIP will call itself once Scotland gets independence? EWNIIP doesn't quite have that snappy feel to it does it?
  • The children are not 'white British'. That's the only reason I can see why they were taken away. What I can't get my head around is if the parents were that opposed to non white British people then why would they agree to foster three non white British children?

    They clearly didn't have a problem with it.

    Utterly ridiculous decision by Rotherham council.

    That's fascism.

    Do UKIP really oppose multiculturalism ? Genuine question.

    I think they want to end this idea of living here all with encouraged seperate identities and all should be British first. People confuse diverse culture with diverse race.

    Apparenytly the social worker told the foster carerers that as they supported UKIP and that UKIP wanted to send europeans back home that they were not suitable to foster kids from an ethnic background.

    The council seem to think so.

    I have worked in fostering services in the past and I can't believe this decision was taken lightly or after much investigation and debate internally.

    If any foster parents don't believe in or act in accordance with the conditions of the foster care agency they would be removed from the register of foster carers for that agency.

    I suspect there is more to this than meets the eye.
  • On the face of it, it sounds bonkers, but we don't know all the details. For example, if the kids had come over here from Eastern Europe with their parents and then had to go into care for some reason, then the foster carers' membership of UKIP could be an issue. This is particularly true if the kids are old enough to understand any political leaflets that are left lying around the house, as they may be left with the impression that the foster carers believe that they don't really belong in this country. And it's the needs of the kids that are most important in this, not those doing the fostering.

    Being a social worker is a horrible job - you're damned if you do, and damned if you don't. I'm not going to jump on the outrage bandwagon without knowing the whole picture.

    They appear to oppose it according to their pocket policy.

    I agree using the term Fascist lightly is wrong. For instance the stupid term " there is an awful lot of poppy fascism about"

  • from what I have read about it this seems an absolutely mad decision. Could understand it if they were members of the National Association of foreigner bashers (not the band btw), but they are members of a party that want Britain out of the EU - I suppose you could extened that the reasons for wanting out is on the back of some kind of racist agenda but I am not convinced by that argument at all.

    Far too sensible. Can't we all just have the rant about political correctness gone mad, blah blah blah from the thinly veiled far-right that we usually get on here?
  • And while we're at it, I'd have all members of UKIP thrown out of the country, if I were in charge.

    Touche. I phrase however I have not used - I did say that trying to ban burning poppies was an idea comparable to fascist policies however.

    End support for
    multiculturalism and
    promote one, common
    British culture

    Ending SUPPORT is not necessarily the same as opposing or banning.



  • Promoting one common British culture is pretty oppositional in my opinion.
  • edited November 2012
    Have we ever had one common British culture? We've always had multiculturalism in this country - with more or less tolerance depending on the way the politcal and social winds are blowing.

    I mean the Britons probably had strong opinions on the Romans coming here and taking our jobs and houses, imposing their namby so-called "civilised" bath-taking, robe-wearing ways on the good old traditions of painting yourself blue and worshipping stones.
