Support Of Ukip?
With UKIP's popularity growing, do you see a point between now and the next General Election, where a national newspaper comes out in support of the party?
If so - which paper do you think will be first out of the gate?
I've always found it odd that the Daily Mail hasn't thrown it's weight behind the party as the paper's stance on so many areas dove-tails perfectly with UKIP.

Gawd help us if they do, we'll have aog spouting the newspaper chapter and verse at us.
Steady on, dtc, he already does
Suggestion to the Ed, put a separate topic subject up for the Daily Wail and run a subscription link to it, at least you'll get the hard earned shillings of the UKIPites on here as ad revenue.

You can see that some who are forever spouting "Fascist", are the one's that wish to stifle free speech.

Since there wouldn't be a site such as this without the Daily Mail, a suggestion to the Ed, step in and stop the Lefties constantly trying to take over this site.

Janbee....UKIPs support in the POlls have been stuck at about 15% for ages. In other words, 85% don't support UKIP. Not a very few but hardly many, however the word is defined. Here is a dictionary definition of "many"
a large number of.
"many people agreed with her"
synonyms: numerous, a great/good deal of, a lot of, a large/great number of, great quantities of, plenty of, countless, innumerable, scores of, crowds of, droves of, an army of, a horde of, a multitude of, a multiplicity of, multitudinous, numberless, multiple, untold;
So...not 15% then clearly.

Bizarrely, whilst looking at groups least likely to vote for UKIP, you managed to skip past households with an income of more than £30,000 a year, university graduates, Daily Mirror readers, those 'slightly left of centre, the under 40s, Times readers, Labour voters, Independent readers and those 'very left of centre'.
It's almost as if you skipped past all those others, to focus on the tiniest groups (with 1% each) simply because of some (un)hidden agenda.
I'm sure this isn't the case, and that you're not trying to make this thread about race, because you never ever do that.
I'm assuming that there must've been a problem with your web browser and the read of the list didn't display properly.

Ok, let's take it to extremes if you want to be argumentative. 6 million Jews died in the Holocaust.
That was defined as genocide. 4 million voted for UKIP at the Euro election, yet you're trying to pass it off as a piffling amount.
Yet a comparative fledgling party has got you flustered and have gone from no-marks and swivel-eyed loons to a serious force in British politics in the space of 18 months. That would in all probability be described as meteoric, nothing less so the quicker you wake up and smell what you're shovelling the easier it'll be for you.

Same question to you (trying belatedly to keep this thread focussed).
One of the reasons I think the Daily Mail will side with UKIP is that whenever someone links to one of their stories from AB, I can't help but notice how positive the site's readership is of Nigel and his party.
Therefore, the Mail and UKIP would see like a marriage made kn

So what do you make of these figures from the latest Ipsos/Mori poll mikey?:
One in four (23%) think the Labour Party is ready to form the next government, while 61% disagree; this is the lowest score for an opposition party since the Conservatives in September 2003 in the penultimate month of Iain Duncan Smith’s party leadership, when 21% thought the party were ready. This is down from 35% agreeing Labour were ready to govern in June this year, when 52% disagreed. One in four (27%) Labour supporters currently believe that Labour are not ready to form the next government, with 57% saying they are ready.
Satisfaction in Ed Miliband as Labour leader is at its lowest level, with 21% satisfied in his performance and 65% dissatisfied, giving him a net rating (% satisfied minus % dissatisfied) of -44. This is the lowest level of satisfaction in any Labour leader since Gordon Brown at the height of the economic crisis in July 2008, who received the same score.
The last Labour leader to have a lower satisfaction score than Mr Miliband was Michael Foot in the days following Margaret Thatcher’s landslide victory in the 1983 general election. His satisfaction rating is now lower than for Nick Clegg, for the first time since January 2012.
So even if Ed gets into power on the back of a stunning performance by UKIP, he'll be seen as having go there not on his own merit but on the back of another person/party's success. He'll be ridiculed from dusk till dawn.
