#UKIPMANIFESTO

Ukip leader Paul Nuttall launched his party’s election manifesto yesterday. @Mrharrycole wrote: “Ukip manifesto: clamp down on terror, scrap vat on takeaways. Abolish the lords. Spend aid on NHS. And 20k new soldiers and coppers.” @bbclaurak noted: “UKIP putting attack on May at centre of manifesto launch - all but blaming her for Manchester because of policy during time at Home Office.” @Polhomeeditor tweeted: “Every single journalist who has asked a question at the Ukip manifesto launch has been heckled by party activists. Not a good look.” @dr_alex_gates observed: “Ukip, with no MPS and just one councillor, get their manifesto launch broadcast live on BBC. We live in an odd world.”
