Off-topic: May we hear more of this man

Kilroy-Silk was once best know for hosting a BBC talkshow every morning. Until he was effectively fired for voicing some accurate but politically incorrect views on the war on terror and the Arab countries:

WE ARE told by some of the more hysterical critics of the war on terror that "it is destroying the Arab world". So? Should w e be worried about that? Shouldn't the destruction of the despotic, barbarous and corrupt Arab states and their replacement by democratic governments be a war aim? After all, the Arab countries are not exactly shining examples of civilisation, are they? Few of them make much contribution to the welfare of the rest of the world. Indeed, apart from oil - which was discovered, is produced and is paid for by the West - what do they contribute? Can you think of anything? A nything really useful? Anything really valuable? Something we really need, could not do without? No, nor can I. Indeed, the Arab countries put together export less than Finland.

For the entire article, go here. It's great!

Kilroy-Silk was a promising rising star in the Labour party as well, the Labour party being the official representation of the BBC, if you will.
So now the former talkshow host has found a new home for his political aspirations. And apart from aiming for the top position in UKIP, he is now taking the EU to task for corruption and misapropriations of funds.

East Midlands M.E.P. Robert Kilroy-Silk of the U.K. Independence Party was today harassing officials in Brussels by handing in a string of 16 written Parliamentary Questions designed to expose various matters relating to Britain’s membership of the European Union.

There were hard-hitting questions on the role of EUROPOL, the cost of Britain’s E.U. membership and the dismissal of Commission staff for ‘whistleblowing’ on corruption and fraud, plus other questions designed to demonstrate that eurozone countries who adopted the euro three years ago were doing substantially worse economically than the United Kingdom, Sweden and Denmark, which stayed out of the single currency.

Mr Kilroy-Silk said: “I’m doing the job I was elected to do - exposing the harm being done by our membership of the European Union”.

The EU in many ways is as sick an organization as the UN is. It exists for the greater glory of France, and just like in the UN, the French have somehow convinced the other participants that membership in the organization is somehow a good thing! Yes, really, pay for an extra hundred thousand or so civil servants, give up your sovereignty and let the French tell you what's good for you.
Kilroy-Silk pays particular attention to the persecution of 'whistleblowers', people who expose corruption and fraude within the vast EU bureaucracy. There is an official policy against such persecution, but in practice, life as you know it is effectively over for whistleblowers.
So good luck to you, Mr Robert Kilroy-Silk. For what it's worth, you have my blessings.
