Its not often you see UKIP getting much press coverage these days, so its good to see a reasonably detailed piece in the Inde today. Click here for the article. The basic assertion in the piece is that UKIP are electorally insignificant at 1-2% of the popular vote and that they will struggle to hang-on to their previous level of support in European elections. Certainly the in-fighting of recent times hasn’t done them any good.
