This time they did,in the last election,, already there are signs of slipping as to UKIPs support too.
I also do really believe that if the UK votes to stay in the EU, Farage will have had enough and UKIP without Farage is unthinkable in my view as to any real electoral success.
However even if Labour and the Conservatives were taking around only 30% of the votes each and UKIP even got 20%,that would still leave one of them the largest party,way short of an overall majority but UKIP still left with only a handful of seats under this current electoral system.

If we vote to leave, then there will be no need for UKIP afterwards,they will likely remain for a time but steadily decline too.
I also think a fair number of current UKIP voters who may stop supporting UKIP after the referendum,would then simply just not vote at all

Labour has a massive job, no doubt about it.
However writing them off now out of wishful thinking rather than fact,will lead to disappointment for those,in my view, who simply hate the left of politics and would find faults with Labour no matter what they said or who led the Party.
