What motivates the leaders of the United Kingdom Independence Party?

'Bowler Bloom' on Women's Rights (continued).

Further quotes from UKIP's Yorkshire MEP on his appointment to the Women's Committe as first reported in passing in our earlier post of today:-

He told journalists he wanted to deal with women’s issues because “I just don’t
think they clean behind the fridge enough”.

“I am here to represent Yorkshire women who always have dinner on the table when you get home. I am going to promote men’s rights.”

More sensibly as picked up by The Guardian linked here (amusingly enough written by a reporter named Sarah Left), he made the following valid point regarding the employment effects of excessive compulsory maternity leave and re-employment procedures.

"Regulation in protection of women is all well and good in academic and government circles. If you're a small business, you'd be a lunatic to hire a woman of child bearing age,"
