Since, I also believe this govt; will achieve better results as to immigration too in the next 5 years,with Labour also in line on that too.

UKIP not disappearing but probably never hitting towards 15% in a general election again.
If the referendum is a no to staying in result, UKIP then have little purpose after that,any other policies can easily be presented more forcefully by the other parties.

If the result is a yes to staying in, especially a narrow yes,then there will be no appetite from the 2 main parties to even think of going down the referendum road again for at least decades, if indeed ever.
Thank you very much Joey, I am appalled that arista would consider my views to be anything but fair and balanced

the referendum will be enormous....and farage will be the only leader fighting the other pro European zealots. the result of the referendum will determine our future and ukips....I don't see ukip doing much in 20 years but with farage they may be a force for the next 5 to 10 years..farage has done an enormously great service for this country in europe

MTVN is on the wind up as his party evaporated before his very eyes and labour

Bit off topic but who out of Tim Farron and Norman Lamb do you thing has the best chance of restoring the Lib Dems to 3rd party in votes again over UKIP,MTVN.
I'd go for Tim Farron myself.

Hmm well I think Farron definitely will win; he's the party darling who has put in the hard yards to rise through the ranks and has a lot of support amongst the grassroots. He very much represents a new start and a break with the Clegg era so probably does have the best hope of rejuvenating the party. I do actually like Lamb as well and might even prefer him to Farron but I just don't think Lamb is enough of a character to muster widespread support and I don't think he's as capable as breathing new life into the Lib Dems. I think Lamb would be the continuity candidate and that's probably not what they need.

It's a very difficult role for either of them. It will probably take ten years at an absolute minimum to recoup their losses from this election, probably even longer. It might not happen at all; if Labour and the Tories both move to occupy the centre ground then the Lib Dems need to do a lot of thinking about where their place is in modern politics.

Some of Nigel Farage's fellow European Parliament members have been making references to his shortlived resignation as UKIP leader.

Guy Verhofstadt, leader of the ALDE group that includes British Lib Dems, said: “Nigel Farage has sent a letter to Nigel Farage saying I resign, and Nigel Farage has responded to Nigel Farage saying ‘I refuse’."

It's important to listen to business isn't it ...That's what Cameron, Farage et al are always force feeding us?
Then why when the CBI suggest businesses promote staying in the EU is this not acknowledged?....
