More Chaos For Ukip

But I expect Mr Farage will just say that it is a one off and isn't very important. This is just a few days after Sanya-Jeet Thandi, a rising student star of Ukip's youth organisation denounced him as a racist and quit the party.

Incidentally , how do our resident UKIP supporters feel about Sanya Jeet Thandi? She was one of the leaders of UKIP's youth wing, spoke at their conference, and was hailed as a rising star by Farage. Now she has turned her back on the party on the grounds that she things large numbers of racists have gotten into the party....

No NJ, you are pretty much on the button ! I too forecasted that the coalition government of 2010 would descend into the shambles that it has. To be honest, it is taking nothing away from your or my intellect to have foreseen this...it was obvious to anybody if they had but thought about it.
The great danger, as you say, is that votes for Labour and the Tories will be somewhat depleted by the votes that people waste on UKIP. It will affect the Tories more than Labour, which may ensure that a Tory defeat is even more likely than at present. If the Tories are defeated, then a Labour victory, perhaps with the aid of A N Other will then proceed. So another 5 years of omni-shambles is on the horizon
But my central theme has always been that UKIP cannot and will not form the next Government at Westminster. They may get a seat or two but even that is not expected by the Polling organisations or the Bookies, who are seldom wrong.
I don't know if you mix with ordinary working-class people but I do on a daily basis and I am hearing that lots will be voting UKIP in May 2015. But none of those people have any idea whatsoever what else UKIP appear to be standing for, apart from their constant whinging about racist matters.
The blind leading the blind it would seem.

K is right here.
I am getting fed up with being told that "UKIP speaks for the silent majority" or words to that effect. Can I remind everybody that all the Polls ever done, have put UKIP support at about 15%. In other words, 85% of people Polled do not support UKIP ! Where is the silent majority in this ?
Empty vessels make the most noise.

No.It is not the blind leading the blind.UKIP are constantly campaigning about immigration issues.This is what the working class and others wish to hear.They do not wish to see the other parties sweep THE PROBLEM under the carpet.Labour created the problem and the coalition don't have the unity to solve it.It is not a racist issue .It is an immigration issue that many people are concerned with!!
Roy...those "many people" that you refer to don't appear to concern themselves with immigration issues enough to admit to Pollsters that they are contemplating voting for UKIP next May.
Anyway, even if this was the real concern that you say it is, what would be the point in voting for a party that is never going to win an election and be able to do something about the situation ?
That is the thrust of my post concerning UKIP...the votes are wasted because they are going to lose in May 2015. Any UKIP votes will be swept up by the cleaners the morning after the election and consigned to history, along with all the other loony-tunes.

|Of course these other issues affect the lives of the electorate.Thats because education,health,housing,water,utilities,crime are all seriously being affected by almost mass uncontrolled immigration.We are being swamped,the infrastructure is barely able to cope.Immigration is a major cause and UKIP are the only party to have the guts to stand up and support the best interests of my country.
I don't suppose a large number of Welsh have come into England recently to have their cancer treatment more speedily dealt with because the Welsh NHS can't cope with the excess numbers of growing patients due to immigration.Hell no.How racist of me to think that.Curb immigration and much of this countries problems are alleviated.
