UKIP - ignore them at your peril.... 10 Years, 8 Months ago

Sky News says that - taking the current polls into account - the Conservatives could lose 100 seats; they suggest that the ratings would give the following seats:-

Labour 253

Conservative 187

UKIP 128

Lib Dems 11

Others 71

However, a poll for the Sunday Times gives UKIP 25 seats.

But there is little doubt that the UKIP efect will be significant and unprecedented in UK politics.

Funnily enough I reckon UKIP will have difficulty holding on to half a dozen seats at the General Election (this comes from someone who got the biggest by-election vote in history as a non special issue candidate). General Elections tend to reflect different voting motivations. Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

You may well be right. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/ukip/1...arvellous-chaos.html But, at least, the UKIP factor will make things more interesting! Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.

Ukip have scored well at BOTH recent Euro elections -- and then collapsed at the following General Election.

Voters can "protest" (when it does not matter) - but return to safe ground when it does.

They could well win Thursday; Farage will win a seat; that's three already. A couple more Tories and a Labour before May? Enter code here Please note: although no board code and smiley buttons are shown, they are still usable.
