Will vote for a party that represents my views, reducing immigration, protecting our borders and getting out of the EU.
Clairvoyant are you, sorry to disappoint you but i will not be voting Tory.....
You really do love to vote for minority parties, If no UKIP presence, and negating Tories, and Labour. The elections in your locale will be difficult for you I guess. Not wasting your vote at all. :-D
Anyway, Im going to bed. Night

you dont consider 28% of the popular national vote to be substantial? not sure if you've deliberatly misunderstood that comment, the meaning or in denial. one cant ignore well over a quarter of the population supporting a particular strong way of thinking.
The only way UKIP will cease to exist is if UK vote to leave the EU,their job will be done so to speak.
Good to see,you and others are now recognising this as a possibility.
The point being made was the underlying issues that have driven voters towards the FN remain. Yes the voting system helps block further electoral success but it would be extremely complacent to think this could not change.
My vote, my choice, i live here.
In my opinion it is a better system than here precisely because of this. If you have two bland parties and one abhorrent one, it stands to reason that the public ought to be able to vote AGAINST the party they find least palatable. You'd think that in the next term, the two bland parties might then pick the more rational policies of le FN so as to appease a bulk of the hefty chunk of people who feel disenfranchised enough to have voted that way.Only because one party pulled out and they urged all the people to vote for Sarkozy party, not very democratic is it, otherwise the results would have been different.
Is this how democracy works in the EU these days?

Our situation leads to a minority dictating the wishes of the majority. This is not good. For example, in Northern Ireland, there are cases where two parties sometimes split the vote on one side of the sectarian divide letting in one party on the other.

It was the left that was routed losing seven of the 13 regions reducing them to 5.Although the National Front did not do as well as expected they tripled there councillors.Bad election for the socialists.
