If you thought the ‘Batshit Preacher’ Calvin Robinson took the prize for most brazen fundraising grifts, you’d be wrong. He’s just been overtaken, in spectacular fashion, by Ben Walker, Chairman of UKIP.
Walker has just launched a crowd funding appeal to raise £50,000 for “UKIP’s Border Protection Mission” to “secure our borders and protect our people”.
And he makes the extraordinary claim that UKIP has already launched one “operation” in co-operation with the French police, to stop small boats crossing the channel.
The appeal says: “In light of the ongoing invasion of Britain, UKIP has conducted its first operation in the North of France, collaborating with the French police to locate and stop boats from crossing the Channel.
“We urgently need your support to continue this mission and ensure the safety of our communities.
“Your generosity will enable us to maintain designated teams on rotas in the North of France, working tirelessly to prevent the dangerous and illegal crossing of our borders”.
Gang of goons
UKIP’s “first operation”, as Walker calls it, involved UKIP Leader Nick Tenconi and a gang of goons turning up in Calais a couple of days earlier to harass refugees and NGO workers.
Dressed in black with black baseball caps, Tenconi’s heavies arrived in three vehicles and entered one of the largest informal living sites of refugees in Calais.
Hurling abuse
Wearing black leather gloves and wielding a megaphone, Tenconi hurled abuse at refugees, declaring that “Northern France is now British territory! You’re not coming, you like that?”
“Fuck you! Fuck you! That’s what I say.”
However, the reaction he was hoping to provoke did not come, and after about an hour of shouting abuse they turned and left.
‘TACO’ Tenconi
In fact, given ‘TACO’ Tenconi’s previous performances when confronted with any serious opposition (he just legs it) they were probably quietly praying that those they were abusing would not react anyway.
So this is what Walker’s crowd funder is intended to finance. Gangs of thugs buying day returns on the ferry to shout abuse and film themselves in the process.

However, anyone who is still thinking of chipping in to Walker’s appeal would do well to ponder the fact that – despite his claim that they were co-operating with the French police – there was not a single French police officer in evidence.
As usual, this was just Tenconi and a gang of UKIP scumbags trying to provoke trouble.
At the time of writing, the appeal has raised £10…
