Oh yes, those rules he referred to when backtracking spectacularly
having previously bracketed people with HIV alongside murderers as 'people who should not be allowed in'.
And I presume you entirely disagree with Dr Rosemary Gillespie, chief executive of the Terrence Higgins Trust, who said: ?The idea that having HIV should be used as a black mark against someone?s name is ridiculous and shows an outrageous lack of understanding of the issue.
?It is to the UK?s credit that for more than three decades successive governments, no matter their political stamp, have refused to put in place border controls against people living with HIV.
?Major international organisations, including the United Nations, agree that such draconian measures would have no impact on the epidemic.
?In bracketing those living with the condition with murderers, and suggesting there is no place for them in his vision of Britain, Mr Farage has stooped to a new level of ignorance. He should be truly ashamed.?
