Key Policies per BBC
"Withdraw from the EU and enter into a Swiss-style free trade agreement with EU members; replace basic and higher income tax and national insurance rates with a single, flat tax rate for everyone; freeze immigration for five years; establish a grammar school in every town; oppose green taxes and wind farms; create an English Parliament of English MPs at Westminster."

Not as harsh as the bully Brown dictatorship we all suffer with and have suffered with for far to long now. I'm afraid Avronb a vote for UKIP with such close opinion poles is a vote for labour, the party that doesnt listen to the people!

And the party that loves Europe almost as much (if not more?) than the Lib Dems!

"None of the above" is always an option ! If you really think that none of them desrve your vote then dont.We all have red buttons and mobiles etc and seem to vote habitually for "strictly come x factor " etc.....do we really need these self serving dishonest buggers to rule us forever ? Change the whole system I say,its about time.We have the oldest parliamentary democracy inthe world,so lets have the first real modern democracy here,now!

Haven't kept up with the political situation there for quite some time. It's all I can do to follow the FTSE because I had about 22% of my retirement fund in there. Here's a poll that was taken on one of the investment forums that I am on....thought you might get a kick out of it. Of course, it's probably all posters from the States and we, for the most part, aren't going to know s***...
Who will win the United Kingdom's general election on May 6?
Ratio
Gordon Brown (labour party) 13%
David Cameron (conservative party) 22%
Nick Clegg (liberal democrat party) 9%
Not sure 25%
Who cares? 31%

UKIP
Is my party I detest the EU and the politicians that are destroying our country.
Cameron is a huge letdown I am an ex Tory UKIP will soon overtake the LibDems I believe we have a future.
