Maybe they should all just go into a coalition. I can see it now...

Cons: Ed I will allow your 90% tax on millionaires (MPs excluded) if you allow me to boil the unemployed and disabled in boiling lager with fag ends in it.
UKIP: Best Add in those foreigners, only way I will agree
SNP: Will make quite handy compost, I'm on board aslong as we can send the goods to Scotland instead of wasting it on these English and Welsh bastards
Greens: As long as the trees are unharmed
Lib Dem: Whatever you all want...I'm just going along with it all for a slight bit of power.

Not sure it's really a surprise. UKIP simply = Tories that were too outwardly racist to be in a mainstream party... no?

do we have to live in a society, that controls are opinion of words, there's one word for that is,mind control programming, people are afraid to say what they think, and we are suppose to be a free country, I mean katie hopkins tweets what she says,and people want the police to put her in a cell, people in this country think the word chink is far worse that the sickest crimes that happen in are country.

I don't think it's worse than the sickest crimes, I don't think anyone does, that's somewhat ridiculous hyperbole.

I do however think that using words like "chink" is casually racist, or I suppose, more accurately, I think that people who casually use words like "chink" as if it's any normal throwaway term are utter arseholes. Satire / comedy is different and has its place.

I don't believe in censorship so I wouldn't censor them or make it a legal issue, but I do fully support anyone who wants nothing to do with that sort of person, and I certainly don't think they belong anywhere near any sort of political power or influence. They are bigots. Pure and simple. Maybe not the biggest or worst in the world, but bigots nonetheless.

Amen to that...........

Well that is expected that UKIP will win millions of votes,what quantity of millions is the real issue.

With just 10% of the vote,if the same numbers vote that voted in 2010, he would have something like 3,000,000 votes but no seats.

Even with 20% of the votes and around 6,000,000 votes cast,he would be hard pressed to win 7/8 seats.

The mountain he has to climb is that he needs Labour and the Conservatives way down in the lower 30s and himself on around 24% to be likely of any breakthrough as to just double figures of seats won.

That is the challenge of this electoral 'first past the post system', grossly unfair that it can be most of the time.

user104658 16-04-2015 12:35 PM

Exactly. He could get a few million votes and still have no seats at all, if those votes are spread out across the whole country.

user104658 16-04-2015 12:38 PM

I just noticed that I said "he" and not "they" and several other people have too... Which just sums up UKIP support for me. People are voting for Farage - no doubt a proficient orator - because he blares a convincing trumpet. The majority of the party's potential MPs are oozing pustule covered troglodytes.

I'm actually sat on my own in a lovely little cafe in a sleepy and affluent little Scottish village, having a home baked fruit scone and a large coffee, safe in the knowledge that there's absolutely zero chance of my next MP being a UKIP member, pondering politics and suicide (not my own, to be clear).

The skies are blue, I can't see a cloud at all actually, and it's warm in the sun yet there's a fresh breeze.

I'm not going to lie LT, on balance the weather is pretty ****ing spectacular.

That is one of the big problems with open prisons...too much time in the local village when you should be breaking rocks

It's OK Kirk, Livia has no idea what I look like, if she did she wouldnt be able to come on the forum any more. She would get too excited with hunks* like you and me around.
