Disappointed by the turnout figures, even with all the extra interest of a UKIP win.
East of England, LDs only down 7%...granted as they were only at 14% to begin with, which makes it less great.0 -

Quite right, Mr. O.. It will be back to political business as usual on Tuesday. A fun night but it will change next to nothing. We must also remember that OGH said that Thursday was a disaster for UKIP and their popular support has dropped massively.SouthamObserver said:

UKIP will storm north Wales, it's tailor-made for them.0

I predicted a few days ago that UKIP would get 171 seats at the locals and 34.4% for the Euros.
In the event I fell short by about 5% for the locals, there being only 161 seats. If I extrapolate from that to the Euros UKIP would get 32.68%.
IT LOOKS LIKE I'LL BE PROVED RIGHT0 -

Given split UKIP/Con votes, there is a real chance now of EdM winning most seats in 2015, but not having real legitimacy.
Perhaps he should begin discussions with Clegg? Who would have thought it? The one person who may remain in Government for 10 years running would be Nick Clegg!0 -

Kellner: Greens to beat LDs.0
-
Bear in mind at all times people - no-one was voting Thursday for the possibility of Ed Miliband being Prime Minister. Read across to 2015 has limited value.
I expect a good % of UKIP former Tories lending their vote to the Tories to prevent PM Ed. I expect a good % of UKIP former Labour to stay with UKIP because they really can't wear the idea of PM Ed.0 -

Watch the Sky +/- %
If it adds to less than 12% for Lab minus Con, then Lab are heading for third.
Currently 11.0%0 -
Watching the news I'm guessing the FN result will probably have far more effect on those running the EU than the UKIP vote.
I would also add that the FN vote doesn't surprise me at all having lived on the border with France for decades, worked with many French people and having worked in France.
You can call them racists and by UK standards they certainly are but I get the impression that their feelings pretty much align themselves with the general UK populace. They are just less frightened of saying exactly what they feel.0 -
We'll see about that. Labour could do very badly in places like Kent and Southampton.Pulpstar said:
