"Would Consider Voting UKIP"

"If they thought that UKIP could win in the seat where they lived."

Well, there you are, then.

The Lib Dems used to be like that. Rather more than UKIP's third, in fact, used to say that about them.

Well, there you are, then.

  1. Rumour has it there'll be major league electoral reform if there really are 20-25 SNP MPs and half a dozen Kippers next year, to put them back in their box with red-blue support.

    1. Yes, so I hear. Labour and the Conservatives would both being vengeful mood, and of course between them would still easily hold the huge majority of seats.

      It is notable that even if UKIP managed the six seats that are the most that are ever predicted, then that would still be anywhere between three and five, and probably around four, times fewer than the SNP.

      In any event, there will certainly be more than six SNP MPs next year; there are that many now. Yet that is highest estimate for UKIP. The eventual figure will be well below even that.
