I found this fascinating article at the BBC website about how potentially it is ILLEGAL (under UK law but really EU imposed law) to even discuss any sort of exit poll numbers prior to the broadcast of the vote (scheduled for about 5 pm EDT here in Virginia). Here’s the law (thanks to the BBC): […]

I found several interesting articles on the Zimbabwe skier – Luke Steyn. Here is the Yahoo Sports post on Luke Steyn, who is competing for the African nation in the Giant Slalom and Slalon events. ”He might not get a gold, but there’s plenty of time,” Kevin Atkinson, the head of the Zimbabwe Snow Sports […]

There’s a fascinating article from the BBC about how the Catalonian region of Spain (Barcelona is the capital of this autonomous region and it was the last section of Spain to surrender to Franco in the Spanish Civil War) wants to be an independent nation. But Spain is trying to block it: The Spanish government […]

Two great stories from the UK showing the continuing growth of UKIP! First, former Tory MP Rod Richards has become a new member of UKIP. He states exactly and succinctly why every Briton should support UKIP as well: He said it follows “10 years of frustration watching the country I love going down the pan […]

I have blogged that Botswana ought to have a national curling team. Set up some Olympic-quality curling ice in Gaborone (say about 8 sheets or so) and then do try outs. But nobody can curl in Botswana, Sandy? It would take 50 years to have a competitive team. I disagree. If you get a name […]

The BBC has a great, positive report on the people who seek to change British politics through UKIP. Here’s a couple of highlights: Local membership [in North Yorkshire] is now above 350, and branch secretary and betting shop manager Claire Palmer tells me she’s getting three or four enquiries a week from potential new members.

This article has a calculator to determine what the vote percentage in a British General Election would be required for UKIP to win the General Election in 2015. I found this analysis to be useful as to what happens in the vote. Here’s part of the conclusion: Electoral Calculus said that Ukip would win enough […]

Yes, it sounds like an American election (Virginia has a Isle of Wight County!) but it is the BBC’s report: UKIP is a factor in Hampshire and Isle of Wight. The most startling factor while looking at the candidates standing in Hampshire is finding the rise of the UK Independence Party (UKIP). When the last […]

The vote is today and we should have results early this evening on the Eastleigh by-election, formerly held by the LibDems. The Evening Standard has this headline: Eastleigh voters ‘less likely to run from Ukip canvassers’ And some voters interviewed say UKIP could pull off the surprise upset victory: Voters in Eastleigh today admitted the […]

The Eastleigh riding by-election for local parliament is getting very interesting. Very interesting indeed. UKIP could win after all! Certainly very good possibility of their best turnout ever. I reported the Lord Ashcroft poll this AM but the Guardian is reporting by one of its bloggers that two (the third poll is the Ashcroft one) […]

Baroness Warsi caused a minor row when she suggested that UKIP was trying to attract the same kind of voter as the racist British National Party: Lady Warsi, on the BBC last night, pointed out that Ukip are fielding 14 per cent more candidates at this election than at the last one, while the BNP […]

This BBC report told me what I feared: UKIP did not do well in the local elections. The UK Independence Party (UKIP) has rejected calls by one of its MEPs for leader Nigel Farage to stand down after it failed to make a breakthrough in English council elections. The party made no net gains despite […]

The vote was 234 to 22 with the remaining MPs abstaining. The legal analyst at the BBC is already warning that prisoners not allowed to vote […]
