Lampwick Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 So come on what is your prediction for this by election? Currently UKIP are sitting pretty (good news) in the polls! I can't wait to see the spin (excuses) if they win, "protest vote" etc Shapps must be "Shapping" himself!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdubya Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) The ever so predictable BBC has started their attempts at smearing of the UKIP candidate and I admit for once Farrage did not react to it very well at all, so the pressure is starting to show, but lets see UKIP set more alarm bells off.

belly47 Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 as its my manor I will be voting tomorrow when I finish work and its UKIP for me. politics needs a shake up and if we don't take the chance we have no one to blame but ourselves. every leaflet I have seen from conservative seems to be telling us why we should not vote UKIP, but they don't actually say why we should vote for them. should be interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poontang Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 I think the most interesting thing will be how the Labour party poll. Even the Guardian are reporting that they're haemorrhaging votes to UKIP. At the last election, in 2010, they polled 28.5% of the vote. I can see that dropping to 12% - 13% tomorrow, possibly even less. There are about 100 Labour marginals around the country, some held by just a few hundred seats, and if the Labour vote does collapse tomorrow I expect there'll be a few of Ed's MP's paying serious consideration to their futures...and the future of young Ed too. The Limp Dumps I would expect to lose their deposit, and be soundly beaten by the Greens. UKIP will win, probably by about 14 points.

It's about time for a shake up. It's been interesting to see the liberal Guardian readers try to have a pop and the Torys,,, well Cmoron is clutching at straws!

Liamey Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Go for it! As you say there is nothing to lose and everything to gain! The main so-called parties let the UK down big time - let the sound thrashing begin! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STOTTO Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 This result will set the tone for the ‘General Election’ and it will be the scale of the victory or defeat that will be the crucial factor. What with the Jocks hoping to invade Westminster from the north with the intention of opting out of the Union and UKIP gathering their forces in the south with a similar but larger agenda if both parties generate the anticipated momentum then interesting times lay ahead in the political arena!

robbiep Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 There was a thread on the next general election a year or so back, I said it then, and I'll repeat it now : next general election, outright conservative majority. Though I'll also wish UKIP the best of luck today. Shaking up the established parties is no bad thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHOOTEMUP Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 I think UKIP will get a very easy win with about 38/40% of the vote with some very concerned parties trailing way behind and next year will be one of the most interesting times in British political history I believe the limp deems are a spent force that Cameron is history as well as millipede and those parties will struggle to find one of their own with enough charisma to be leaders of those individual parties! And I really cant wait for it to happen UKIP all the way and as I said interesting and difficult times ahead as the vote tonight will be a defining moment in our history Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmytree Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Has anyone seen anything on the news? Coverage of polling stations? Forecasts? Or has that all been stifled because the BBC and mainstream parties have blocked it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

belly47 Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 my dad is doing his bit for the conservatives at his local polling station and he phoned me to tell that earlier this afternoon the labour rep on site had gone to the car owned by the UKIP guy and snapped the UKIP flag off of the guys car. he was seen doing it by the UKIP guy and an altercation occurred in the car park, dad said it was quite amusing as things got heated. politics has never been so much fun down here I can tell you!!! my dad foiled my attempts to put a UKIP sticker on his back when I went to see him a while ago :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poontang Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 They certainly seem to be on the (far) right path... Predictably boring as usual. Maybe you could enlighten us as to which side of the political fence you sit? I know I've asked before, but you must have some idea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
