    How's Labour's Master Strategy for recovering their losses going?

    How is Cam and Oz's master strategy to outflank UKIP working ?

    Queen Margaret's funeral seems to have galvanised the kippers !

    I think you'll find a lot of right wingers will be pretty sanguine about ukip´s rise, especially if those votes can be won back for the tories at a general election where the choice is tory vs Labour.

    Next general election still seems everything to play for. Especially if the economy recovery picks up

    UKIP gain Godstone, but the Tories have held all their other seats in Runnymede and Tandridge.

    I see the "Should Be Labour" vote has been scared off by the Trade Unionist Master Tacticians who voted in Ed Miliband.

    Hur hur hur....

    In the 6 Hampshire seats in Eastleigh being defended by the Lib Dems, they lost 2 to UKIP and held 4. UKIP do seem to be mopping up the WWC vote and their wins seem to be higher in urban areas than rural (IMHO).
