Ukip candidate calls for death penalty for rivals and 'traitors'

Just days before the European elections, Ukip has been embroiled in yet another scandal after one of its candidates suggested the three main political parties and those who support them should be hung for treason.

In a letter to voters dated 15 May, Gordon Ferguson stated: “The Lib-Lab-Cons have conspired with a foreign power, the EU, and are all thereby guilty of treason. They have sold Britain, which is the 5th largest economy, illegally into increasing slavery outside the EU dictatorship.

“Those responsible should be hung by the neck until dead (but Blair illegally changed the penalty to save his own neck).”

Later in the letter Mr Ferguson said: “If you vote for any of the three Lib-Lab-Con parties you will be aiding and abetting them and you will also be guilty by association of treason against our nation.”

Mr Ferguson, who is running for Cambridge ward in Southport, Lancashire, suggested that the three main political parties are “collaborating with large corporations such as the banks, utility companies and local councils, all in order to defraud and again impoverish the people”.

The death penalty for treason was abolished long before the Human Rights Act 1998 lol silly man. Also he doesn't seem to know what slavery is

You can't be held guilty of treason by wilfully voting for someone in a democratic process. There is so much wrong with that idea that my mind cannot even handle it.

Haha, it's ridiculous isn't it. "If you disagree with me then you're committing treason of the highest order". Ridiculous logic.
