Here’s a fascinating article on the hidden support for the one political party in the UK that stands for Britain: The United Kingdom Independence Party!
Potential support for anti-European Union party UKIP far exceeds that suggested by opinion polls, with almost a third of voters holding views in line with its supporters, according to a study to be published this week.

Euroscepticism, hostility to immigration and dissatisfaction with established politics were the main reasons for supporting UKIP, with 20 percent of voters holding all three beliefs and 30 percent agreeing with two of the three motives, the study found.
Now I published some time ago this blog post with a nifty computer that can show how difference percentages for each party can affect a General Election. Here it is and if you have just over a third of the electorate (34 percent!) voting UKIP in a General Election, they can win a majority of the seats at Westminster. The momentum from the successful 2014 EU elections can start that process. But there will be smear tactics for sure.
What a victory for liberty that will be! Makes me want to go to England and help out!
