UKIP's unemployed Brit is ... an Irish actor from Dublin

British political party UKIP's latest Eurosceptic ad campaign hit a speed bump today, as it turned out their unemployed, undercut British worker was an Irishman from Dublin.

The poster, part of a massive advertising campaign against EU migration practice, feature a man clad in hard hat and construction site safety vest, with the text "EU policy at work. British workers are hit hard by unlimited cheap labour."

The British worker being hit hard, however, is Dubliner Dave O'Rourke.
