it may well be that UKIP represent what most of us think, but realistically - would we be any better at running the nation this way?

what i mean is, ideally many of us want this and that, but does it translate well in the wider picture - when has a party ever gone in and totally shaken things up. Things take time, messes need to be cleaned up and it isn't that easy.

Politicians are no more more than puppets and 'yes' people to the higher powers that be - banks and corporations.

Would UKIP stand their ground and piss off the economical world or eventually get their hands twisted and be just another puppet?


I mostly agree with your analysis except the first sentence, which is clearly untrue, given current polling figures put UKIP's support at about 12%.

what i mean by this, is a lot of people out on the street appear to want to vote UKIP but are either embarrassed of being called racist, or don't think it will make a difference. If that makes sense.

I think you are right. many more people will vote for them in the privacy of the polling booth, away from the anti-UKIP baying mob.

I don't agree at all. On a football supporters website, based in the south east but mainly outside London, with the majority of posters a) Male b) a bit older than average, you will get a higher proportion of potential UKIP voters than in the general population.

There's no value to be had in assuming that most people are like you, the vast majority of people who vote will support other parties, well over 85% of voters. The only impact UKIP will have is they will split the Tory vote in marginal constituencies and ensure a hung parliament.

And I would suggest that the majority of UKIP supporters are far from embarrassed by their opinions; on the contrary, they seem only too happy to be very loud in expressing their opinions.

In the current climate, anyone expressing any sympathy with UKIP views is branded a racist, xenophobe etc and voicing any such views could damage your work prospects, if not worse, such as being arrested. The UKIP vote will be far bigger than the polls suggest.

10 per cent at best I reckon. Loads of Tory placards and posters here in South Devon. Have a feeling that plenty of Blues will not be deserting and voting for Fuhrage after all.

Ukip will be an ok force in parliamentary elections and continue to sweep up in EU elections.

Whatever happens it's important that they receive enough votes so that all the EU suck ups in whatever party leads in government can't easily ignore them.

We will see in a few days time, but I really don't think UKIP will make any difference to the outcome of the election, in terms of forming a government. One or two MPs at best. And Farrago won't win his seat, so if he keeps his promise and resigns as leader, they'll return to being a noise box for saloon bar bores that they were.

UKIP have won. There will be a referendum in the next parliament if the Tories get in and both the Tories & Labour have committed to controlling immigration.

UKIP are forcing the main parties to adopt their policies.

Think about that when you vote for Milit***. He is not just in the pockets of the Unions, Nicole Sturgeon and Ed f***ing Balls but also UKIP.
