UKIP are looking pretty safe for their seat in Scotland at the moment. They have got 95K and SNP have 266K. They would need to gain another 30K (I think) to take the extra seat.0

You evidently misunderstand me. We all know people don't like the EU. Even Clegg knows that. My point was that the only party that is proudly for In was already heading for zero MEPs (or max 1-2) before Clegg took on Farage and after he took him on the same thing looks like it is happening.Socrates said:
Because it shows how much people don't like the EU. The party of out has surged to incredible highs, while the party of in has utterly, utterly collapsed. Hefty majorities backed Farage's euroscepticism over Clegg's europhilia in post-debate polls, showing how the europhile myth that you just need to stand up and speak for the EU and the plebs will all realise what's good for them. That has now been shown to be complete and utter bunk. We don't want European integration and we don't want miserly fiddling at the edges reforms. Brussels must give us back huge swathes of national sovereignty or we will take it for ourselves.kle4 said:
I still don't see how - they were already briefing around that stage that they expected to lose all their MEPs, or that is was possible at least. It didn't work as a tactic, but since they were on course for a wipeout or near wipeout before it happened, and that has now occured after it happened, it didn't actually have much impact on the LD outcome, even if it cost them some % points or raised UKIPs.Stuart_Dickson said:
That was a mistake. A big mistake.GIN1138 said:

Seems Libdems may be sixth in Scotland...
Therefore, that it did not work in Clegg's favour hardly means it was a mistake to try it. It at least had the chance to change the outcome. It didn't work at all, and Europhilia is toxic (in addition to the other reasons the LDs are toxic right now) even if more people out of fear would vote to stay in the EU, but challenging Farage was an attempt to stave off complete disaster. That the attempt failed does not mean the attempt was a mistake unless it made things worse, and even if it did in vote terms, it didn't in outcome terms.

They've been reduced further than this in previous incarnations and survived to rebuild over many decades. I think it premature to assume they will disappear entirely, they will just have to readjust to being a much less ambitious in scope party.maaarsh said:Where will the 7% Lib Dem rump go when they collapse in to nothing over the next 10 years?

Less ambitious than they are already? They sold themselves to the Tories for an AV referendum when they never wanted AV.kle4 said:
