That is one thing I admire, he has stuck to his guns and he will likely be the only leader of a party advocating leaving the EU, no matter what deal David Cameron gets or even doesn't get.
The CBI now is calling for members to be more vocal in their support for being in the EU, that in turn with a Conservative govt; (desperate in the main as to them not wanting to be the govt; that takes us out of the EU really),will swing the media to portray that David Cameron has won some incredible concessions and have them swing behind the yes campaign too likely.
That will be UKIP and Nigel Farage's real test.
I still believe myself, those who wish to leave the EU will come wind,rain, hail or snow go out any time of the year to achieve that aim.
Those who would prefer to stay in, or have no real position either way, are less likely to make the effort to vote.
So if it was reasonably close.I could see the UK sleepwalking out of the EU.
Which is why, nearer the time, I can see a good number of Conservative MPs,reluctant to support a referendum bill if it looked like it was too close to call or it seemed a vote to leave would likely be the result.
As you say, UKIP and Nigel Farage will be the only and lone voices advocating leaving the EU.
After the referendum,that is when UKIP in my view will fade in popularity,eve moreso if its a resounding yes to staying in.
I have always however admired Farage for not budging an inch from his long held view as to the EU,while never at all agreeing with him on it in any way.

to say you disagree with ALL that he says regaridng the EU is simply a lie. You havent even listened to ALL that he said for starters nor have you even read the constitution so you dont even know what youre agreeing or disagreeing with....embarassing
