[Livia]

I seriously doubt the LibDems will ever be the second party. They've alienated huge swathes of their supporters just by getting into bed with the Tories and furthermore they've had to move away from the fundamental ideals of their party in order to have a tenuous grasp on power. I think it'll take them decades to recover from the Coalition. UKIP on the other hand, despite their lack of policies and the fact they have no idea how they would fund the policies they do have, are saying what people want to hear. And considering the monumental *******-up the Tories are making of it, UKIP stand an excellent chance at the next election in May 2014. Especially considering that next election is for the European Parliament. If UKIP do well in that, they're really well-placed for the General and District elections in 2015.
