Nigel Farage's New Year message on the video at the bottom. By gum, he speaks well .....

Indeed he does, but I worry about single issue politics. My best scenario would be a Tory/UKIP coalition, with UKIP forcing whoever is leading the party to come across on the Tory manifesto promises. No more blaming the Lib Dems for their welshing on their so called cast iron promises.

UKIP has gone up one point since I posted on an earlier thread.

As the Tories are their only likely coalition partners I would expect them to join together, if UKIP's popularity converts to seats in a General Election. However, and given Farage's personality, I would expect them to be more bolshy than the LibDems and not be afraid to pull the plug if the Tories messed them about.

If that did happen, and it could, I would expect Farage to give the former partners both barrels and let everyone know where the blame lies.

We live in interesting times.

Farage does speak well - when he's allowed to. Which more or less rules out "Question Time".

Interesting times indeed.

Question Time is so left wing as is Dimbleby and those who produce it..
I was asked many years ago to stand for UKIP, we went to London I was interviewed but spouse a staunch Conservative put the kibosh on my going for it... We were members of The Monday Club, more or less disbanded these days having lost the title of the Conservative Monday Club..
I am not sure about Farage's ability to get us our of the EU, I received his New Year good wishes Cromwell, what I feel is that Cameron is facing the biggest challenges of the century, we have been lied too by successive Prime ministers and MP's....We the people are apathetic to a point of mental paralysis we sit back and take whats thrown at us without any form of retaliation.. And the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
Have the EU made their last years accounts available for public scrutiny?
In my opinion we cannot trust any of them.. I shall vote UKIP in the hopes of getting a UKIP Coalition with the Cons.

We are going to vote for UKIP if a candidate is put up here. It has been Labour for many years and it will take a big swing to change it.
