Oh dear! Is this the cursed conference

Don't they all fit in the Lib Dem taxi?

The LD have 8 times the MPs of the kippers, and had a record conference attendance. UKIP have their lowest in 5 years:

Yet if the UK votes for Leave, UKIP can claim to be the most successful party in recent history, even as they disappear.

UKIP will have done pretty well just to have got the vote held in the first place, and the closer it is the more impressive. I think their place in history is already secure.

Apologies if posted before. Cam talks about that book.

UKIP abandons plan to scrap inheritance tax and instead will use money saved from leaving EU to give public sector workers a payrise

And the animals looked from man to pig and pig to man, but they all looked the same...

UKIP are lurching ever Leftward. Very strange.

Given up on the Tory heartlands and having a crack at the Labour heartlands by the looks of it.

Yeah, I don't think its strange, in terms of why and what.

The likelihood of doing it, while having the most libertarian MP, yeah, that makes it *brave*

Quite - except McDonnell wants to achieve it with higher taxes.

Vanishing into the same electoral dead end as 2010 and 2015.

The public shows an amazing capacity to think that things are a good idea until someone points out that they will need to pay more money for them.

The left have always been in favour of a balanced budget. They don't want to be in hock to the banks.
