This is a fascinating article that will tell it: Is UKIP for real? Even the headline is showy: David Cameron’s fury as top Tories plot UKIP pact which could make leader Nigel Farage a minister Wow. Well, to be a minister, you have to be elected MP I would think. And some UKIP supporters would […]

I am on the email list for ConservativeHome blog (which I recommend heartily) and I was curious what the pro-Tory blog would say. But it did not come to me today! I thought maybe I got kicked off for aggravated touting for UKIP (which I plead guilty!) in the recent postings. But I went to […]

The Independent is reporting today that UKIP leader Nigel Farage is in discussions with perhaps two Tory MPs about defecting to UKIP. Disillusioned Conservative MPs have secretly contacted the UK Independence Party to discuss possible defection, its leader claimed yesterday as he appealed to Tory Eurosceptics to jump ship.
