Nige and his bunch of inadequates get far more air time than any other

and far less than a party with only 1 MP, or a party that wants to be

But much much more than other parties with more than one MP.

In terms of actual voter percentages, UKIP is the third biggest party in
the UK, well ahead of the SNP, Plaid Cymru, Sinn Fein, the Ulster
Unionists, the Greens or the liberal democrats.

At the last election, they got 3.1% of the votes. LibDems 23%.

Er actually that is a lie, at the last NATIONAL election, for MEPS, they
got nearer 25%.

Right. So you now want to talk about other than the national election? Or
shall we make it local council ones?

Hint. People often vote very differently where it matters. As the SNP
found out. One thing voting as a protest - but when the crunch actually
comes many change their tune.

You are terribly selective with your 'facts'

Crikey. Do you ever understand what you post?

But the Left never could face reality...

Right now not a single opinion poll puts them at less then twice the lib
dem support

Let's ignore actual votes and just use opinion polls, then.


On those figures, UKIP get vastly more air time than they are entitled to.

So you are talking total ******** as usual.


MMm. I'll let others decide which of us is talking ********.

Absorb that an tell me why the *perceptions* is of a small fringe
minority party.

You consider 3.1% not a minority?


No I consider 16-19% not a small minoroity.

You really do like to use any figures you want to support your views. Just
like the average lying politician.
