From the blog post at: http://wp.me/p3xSxU-1e5 UKIP's xenophobic fundraising record by Mike Read (now withdrawn from sale) has caused outrage but, tellingly, UKIP sent their sole high-profile black member, Winston McKenzie onto Newsnight in an attempt to defend their racist gaffe and it was a big, big mistake. McKenzie, who already has form for being a homophobe, embarrassed himself and his party in a shameless and bizarre display of ignorant buffoonery during a debate with the BBC Asian Network's DJ Nihal. At one point, violence threatened to break-out when McKenzie sought to remind Nihal that he was "a former boxer" to which Nihal responded with the words "bring it."
