POLL: UKIP SET TO WIN EURO ELECTIONS
BREITBART ^ | 16 Mar 2014 | NICK HALLETT

Posted on 03/16/2014 3:27:14 AM PDT by grimalkin

The UK Independence Party is on course to win the largest share of the vote in May's European Elections, according to a new poll. The party is currently on 30 percent, with Labour in second place on 28.

The ComRes poll for the Independent on Sunday, which bases its European voting figures on the 38 percent of respondents who said they are "absolutely certain" to vote, is the first poll for some time to ask a question specifically about the European elections.

The Conservatives, who maintain that they are the only party who can offer a referendum on the EU, linger in third place with 21 percent of the vote, 9 percent behind UKIP. The Liberal Democrats, meanwhile, look set to finish a dismal fourth with just eight percent, putting them in danger of losing all their seats in the European Parliament. They are also only two percent ahead of the Greens.

These poll numbers come on the heels of a favorable court ruling for UKIP that confirmed its status as a ‘major party’ which cannot be ignored by UK media in the runnup to the elections.

Not even negative “coverage” by the Daily Mail (who still favor the party over the ideology) can keep Farage and his party down.

David Cameron FORCED sodomy and the celebration of it on the nation. No wonder the Tories are failing. Idiot...he also embraced Obama.

This is the story of what happens when real conservatives leave the fake conservative party and start their own.

If America had a parliamentary system the Tea Party would be in control. Period.

How nice... maybe the UKIP could show the GOP how to be conservative.
