This makes them look really weak and even more desperate after all they have said as to UKIP. In fact it is massively hypocritical of them too.

I mean, my Parents were,(were now being the operative word), lifelong Conservative voters, they hate UKIP with a passion and they are totally dumbfounded at these antics of this led Conservative Govt.

But in your area it may not be a merge.


In some places UKIP have more than Conservative votes
so can you not understand the panic

I think in most places the Conservative vote will drop and UKIPs rise, however that doesn't mean that many extra votes really.It will save or bring in some seats but overall still enough will be lost and badly lost too by the Cosnervatives in my view.
Strong Labour and Lib Dem voters will not give as much as maybe people think they will as to extra votes to make that much difference.

I can well understand the Conservative party's panic but what they advocate doing because of that I don't understand at all and furthermore I don't think the bulk of voters will like it or respond to it either.

As I say, I believe this will,if it was even attempted,badly backfire on the Conservatives and not just for the 2015 election either but for a good while beyond that.
