UKIP’s rise makes me wish that the instant runoff voting referendum had passed.

UKIP could come in third in the popular vote and win very few or even possibly zero seats while Labour gets a paltry first place finish but a goodly majority of seats.

Latest polling for next years election

Well see what happens.

Good news for these EU elections though, UKIP even got a seat in Scotland. The numbers I’m seeing show +10 UKIP seats plus Labour gaining and the Tories losing 7 seats respectively. Lib Dems lost almost all their seats. LOL. Some are calling for Nick Clegg’s head for leading his party to ruin.

Thanks for the link.
I doubt the seat count will change much for Conservatives or labour , but the next coalition may well be with UKiP.
Well my vote is probably ukip, as I can’t stand the sight of Cameron, or his love of the eu.
Let’s pray Labour don’t obtain a majority. ..we cannot afford those fools in power again.
