If it is Libdem strategy to try and steal votes from the Tories on the right, they've got very little chance, and from the UKIP perspective they're down with Labour (and the Tories) as spineless collaborators with a government less accountable and far more malign than the Condem 'bogeyman' (who continue to increase public expenditure) Indeed, I think their fate might be to become akin to the 'Free Democrats' in Germany - a small party only able to survive due to the other Right wing parties' need for it to make a coalition.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
