  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.

  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.
