MAY I through your paper be allowed to respond to the comments made by Mr Scurlock from Penarth regarding comments he made about myself.

First of all Mr Scurlock in response to your reprehensible claim that I am a devoted member of Ukip, I wish to make it known to yourself that I am in fact not, have never been, and have no intention of being a paid up member of Ukip so before you add comments like that please make sure you have the facts.

Mr Scurlock then goes on to say that I point to a tragic murder in order to tarnish the name of immigrant men, women and children. Mr Scurlock you are well aware that I was pointing out the senseless slaughter of women and children by the Islamic Fundamentalists, you can’t even get that right.

With reference to the funding of parties, Mr Scurlock makes a big play about my comments, I don't care where Ukip, Labour, Liberal Democrats, Tories or even where Donald Duck gets their funding from as long as its legal and not from the taxpayer.

Mr Scurlock states the voting public cares; oh do they really, did the voters who voted 24 Ukip MEPs into the European Parliament stop and think where the money came from? Did the voters, who only a few short months ago voted two Ukip MPs into Parliament, bother to ask where the funds came from? Did all the people who voted for local Ukip councillors ask where the money came from?

Mr Scurlock you belong in Disney as you make a lot of things up. Mr Anti Ukip Scurlock is coming to the defence of Karen Tyre, I am sure that Ms Tyre is quite capable of fighting her own corner.

One thing I do find strange with Mr Scurlock is his lack of reaction or even apology for the actions of his anti Ukip party and their behaviour regarding the throwing of eggs at the Ukip offices in Penarth and of the more serious threat by two people in Merthyr who were arrested for threatening the property and the staff of the Ukip offices.

In Rothertham Nigel Farage was attending an opening of Ukip's office but was prevented from doing so by Mr Scurlock’s Anti Ukip party. In actual fact Mr Farage was advised by the police to stay in the office as they could not guarantee his safety.

Mr Scurlock goes on about the policies of Ukip, the racists, homophobes, etc, yet the party he represents are showing their true colours of being anti-democratic, and intimidating and threatening.

Mr Scurlock, if this is the way you and your colleagues want to go on, you should be ashamed of yourself.

I rest my case your honour.
