dosxuk Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 It depends what the question was on those polls? If it was - Whose policies do you agree with? or more likely - Which party would you vote for in a general election? I suspect it was the latter. It will end up with a much lower percentage, as many voters know the futility of voting for UKIP in a general election. The normal headline question is along the lines of "if there was a general election today, who would you vote for?". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Folk who think defacing political posters influences peoples voting probably aren't the brightest chisel in the toolbox. Some of them are probably not even bright enough to realise there is a difference between an opinion poll for the next General Election and the one for which they are busily defacing posters. http://ukpollingreport.co.uk/european-elections Con 19 Lab 28 Libdem 9 UKIP 31 Green 8 BNP 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Clowning Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 It appears more UKIP posters have benn targeted over night. Many have simply been torn from their boards, whilst a few appear to have had a few naughty words daubed on them. Looks like UKIP are Universally liked lol Maybe its time some of the Pro immigration organisations got their fair share of vandalism then, what comes around goes around. In fact let us all go out and vandalise what we don't like, after all its only a form of expression eh ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonJeremy Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 You clearly are struggling to understand that the opinion poll that was posted has nothing to do with the general election. It's a poll based on opinions on a particular date. Now we have cleared that up, lets share some more UKIP posters. here's one http://www.independent.co.uk/incoming/article9273362.ece/alternates/w460/Ukip3.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipspice Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I hope those UKIPpers speaking out against this were as vocal when this happened? had a good chuckle at these Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikeMac Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I think you will find that it was but you just aren't bright enough to realise it. But if UKIP poll 13-15% in the European Elections and wind up in 3rd or 4th place you will be right. If on the other hand they poll 28-30% and finish up 1st or 2nd I'll be right. So perhaps you need to get out defacing more posters and really swing that public opinion. And why not back up your assertion with a bet? http://www.oddschecker.com/politics/british-politics/uk-european-election/most-seats You are very rude and dismissive, aren't you? Your attitude says a lot about you. Anyone with half a brain knows that UKIP are going to poll very well in the Euro elections. That doesn't make them right, or even popular. Just a convenient protest vote. Like the Greens before them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpikeMac Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 ..but not like the Greens The Greens polled very well a few years ago. For the same sort of reasons that Ukip will this time. Their success didn't lead to a Green revolution. Anyone hoping that Ukip's success will cause a political earthquake is deluded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just didn't want anyone to think that UKIP were anything like the Greens in any other respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
