'Unrepresented' right-wing policies give chance for UKIP resurgence, poll shows
 
https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images...5R_400x400.jpg

New areas of unoccupied political ground on the right could present an opportunity for a Ukip comeback, new polling has found.

Large portions of the population feel disenfranchised and unrepresented, according to a YouGov poll, which experts believe presents a key opportunity for a Ukip resurgence.

Almost two fifths of Britons feel that the justice system is not harsh enough and that none of the major parties share their view. Similarly, 16 per cent feel that immigration restrictions should be tighter and ten per cent want the government to intervene more to encourage housebuilding, while feeling that no major party is representing them.

The findings suggest that there are large sections of the electorate who feel that they lack a voice in the major political parties.

Ukip should seize on the disenfranchised electorate

Not all of the under-represented are from the right, according to the YouGov poll.

Some 12 per cent of underrepresented voters want increased regulation of big business, while one in ten back government intervention in the housing sector. These policies are more commonly the territory of Labour and the Lib Dems.

But, with a track record of eating up the votes of traditionally Labour-backing social conservatives, experts such as Professor Travers argue that there is nothing to prevent Ukip from broadening their manifesto and campaigning on these issues.

"As for the other less traditionally right wing areas, such as regulating big business and more government intervention in house building, would Ukip feel comfortable supporting these policies? I believe they would."

People fleeing from tories to ukip will increase labours chances...

polls show that they would win if there was an election right now, people fleeing to ukip before the election is only going to increase those odds

JoshBB 07-08-2018 03:46 PM

Unrepresented?? as a centre-left person, I feel like right-wing views are all that are represented at the moment. ****ing brexit means brexit etc.... genuinely makes me avoid the news because it's so depressing

The latest polls give the Tories a very narrow lead. When YouGov asked 1,585 adults which party they would vote for in an election tomorrow, 29% said Conservative, 28% said Labour and 6% said the Liberal Democrats.

Pretty much, the majority of the dominant media in this country is right wing.

I think the feeling of being 'underepresented' is actually just them only wanting their views aired and no one else's. Basically they see freedom of speech for anyone other than themselves as an attack on them.

The conservative party are UKIP. Their views are not unrepresented. But go off sis.

You keep making sweeping statements like this but do not say where this info is gleaned from.

If all you read is the express that will colour your opinion

Twosugars 07-08-2018 05:55 PM

This is from may

10 july, labour 39% lead https://d25d2506sfb94s.cloudfront.ne..._VI_Brexit.pdf
12 july, Labour 42% lead http://www.deltapoll.co.uk/wp-conten...poll180714.pdf
16 july, labour 41% lead http://d25d2506sfb94s.cloudfront.net...Trackers_w.pdf
19 july, labour 39% lead https://d25d2506sfb94s.cloudfront.ne...20_for_web.pdf
20 july, labour 40% lead https://www.icmunlimited.com/wp-cont...v-only-BPC.pdf
They actually tied the latest yougov poll, but tories havent won a poll in several weeks. About the time they starting ****ing up brexit publicly. Their fall actually directly correlates with ukips rise, i was just guessing before, looks like i guessed correctly.

...your poll was also from the times... yougov and the times do their polls together a lot. One was also by the sun. Where labour were massively ahead. Despite the sun practically promoting the tories haha.

Its not close at the moment, i dont know how much proof youd need.

To suggest that your one source from may is more relevant than my 5 from july is a bit daft though. See your sig.

None of that is true either, your article is from may (although i cant find evidence of the poll being based on anything at all as the links to the direct source are suspiciously broken), this is serious debates, youre in the wrong place
