Why vote for them then?

Spoil your ballot. Why vote for a party you don't believe in?

Who said I didn't believe in them? What I said was that they won't form the next government. In football terms you seem to be saying that we should all support a team that had a chance of winning the PL.

Ukip may well get in but not just yet. This is a start.
 
Tadger said:
Do you seriously believe that?

Only a very small minority of the British public would benefit under a UKIP government.

Then we are all deciding to vote for that in such huge numbers.
Maybe the scaremongers have got to you.

I've read their policies and can see Farage for what he is.

I see a canny bloke.
Remember when you vote them in it takes years to implement policies.
If you don't like the changes you can vote them out - that's democracy.

Even Farage has said that he won't be Prime Minister any time soon.

Shame that AV referendum was held in 2011 and Farage wasn't involved in the 'yes' campaign. Imagine if they held that referendum now and Farage was the poster boy for the 'yes' movement...

Indeed. I love the way Cameron is contradicting himself over this.
Arguing that voting UKIP, get Labour, ie highlighting the major flaw of FPTP when trying to argue it was the fairest system a few years earlier

He is a wolf in sheeps clothing.

Your second line is ridiculous - it takes days to implement policies. So far as I can remember, the policy to go to war with Iraq this year was actioned within a fortnight of being passed.

he's a member of the KKK anarl ? :neutral:
 
He can't control his prospective MPs. Unlike the traditional parties that evolved UKIP have grown very quickly and they have a shallow pool to choose from and who I don't think have been properly vetted or tutored into what they're in for and any defectors will most likely to be fringe mavericks. Under a concentrated spotlight they'll fall apart eventually. I'm hoping eventually comes quickly enough so that the country isn't too damaged by them.

I am. Why's it worrying?

Read their manifesto mate.

He's an arch-Conservative appealing to the populist vote.

And the other parties aren't?

Damaged in what way? More or less than their current parties has damaged the country?
