UKIP FORUM BIG MOUTHS ARE QUIET TODAY

Perhaps you should pop over to the politics forum and see the 'tories will be out in 2015' threads that were ttt'd today.

They're quite funny.

Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha! Hahaha!

and now the third biggest party, a massive growth in votes, always said 2020 was their target election.  Whatever you think of them they've changed the political map.

And FWIW I clearly stated that UKIP can't get into no.10, and asked Labour supporters why they slag them off, and what they were worried about? 

Where are your friends Facts. Comrade Karla, Pandora and cryoftruth this morning?

oh look...

The Special One agrees with me at last.

The retrieved posts are quite funny.

Agree with you?

You were brown nosing nigelFATFACE

acquiesce showing his ignorance at what the voting tells us.
UKIP here for the long run and NF will be back.

4 million voted for UKIP making them the 3rd largest party, only our democratic process stopped them from having more MPS.
Also for those too young or before you moved to this country, a lot of what you have been taking for granted will be swept away now the conservatives have a majority government for the first time since the 90s.
Its going to be a rude awakening for some.

Yep no longer living off the hard work of others.
Work or face the consequences. Too many lazy ba5tard5 in this country.

The Torys have been out of real power for nearly 20 years they going to want to settle a few scores.
Feel sorry for the legal profession and the bbc the human rights charter to mention a few

over 4 million people voted for them,id say that was pretty darn good

Why the legal profession Mac?

Not a bad result for UKIP voters.

The Tories are in power, so by voting for UKIP they didn't let Labour in.
Ukip with nearly 4 million votes recorded telling the government that they  want to leave the EU and are sick of immigration.

Labour Rats unable to do any more damage to the UK for another five years.

UKIP voters have plenty to shout about, while labour voters can only wonder why they lost so much support.

I am so relieved Harman isn't in government

@treble the legal profession is bloated and full of middle class elitist that have plagued the torys in the past, so a prime target for revenge.

The sweeping reforms made ot the legal aid service have really hurt solicitors.

You now have to bid to get contracts to do legal aid work. If you don't get a contract, you have to rely on private work, which is very tough with criminal law.

My mum is a legal secretary. Her firm put in their bid last week. They find out in October if they have got a contract. If they don't, it looks like Mum's out of a job

She's been a legal secretary since she was 18. She's now 55. She knows nothing else. What chance will she have.

Before anyone says she can get another job at another solicitors, with the contract system they are closing down everywhere. There will be no jobs. And those there are will be ultra competitive from the other secretaries whose firms have been forced to shut. There was a firm called Mackesys in London. Huge firm. Even they have collapsed under the strain.

Is there less legal aid work available treble?

Not for the first time Crippen talks utter sh1te.

Labour 2010: 8,606,517 (29.0%)
Labour 2015: 9,344,328 (30.4%)

An extra 700k+ votes, despite being wiped out in Scotland. They lost seats, not support.

Enjoy your ONE ex-Tory MP.

Yes. If the firms dont get the contracts, and there's only so many awarded per region, they can't do it and have to reply on private. The whole of Kent has 7 contracts being awarded. That's 7 firms in the entire county of
kent that will be able to do legal aid work. There will be job losses galore.

I didn't realise they had cut back on legal aid to that extent.
What do those who can't afford it and get koed for legal aid do?

Exactly.

Astonishing upturn for UKIP since the last election.

Last time just 4 x 3rd place finishes, 0 x 2nd place, 0 x MPs.

This result was a view of the future.

If Britain actually votes to pull out of the EU, it'll probably see off UKIP.

Blame Labour?

A good example of why labour voters are usually losers is Mikael D'Haguenet's last post where he gains comfort from a slight blip in their support.

In the 1997 GE labour won with 418 seats and 13,518,167 votes.

Even in 1992 they got 34.4%
1992 - 34.4%
1997 - 43%
2001 - 40%
2005 - 35%
2010 - 29%
2015 - 30.4%
If he can't see that labour's vote is in significantly decline on that evidence then he might consider going back to school.

Labour received 2.2m fewer votes yesterday than they did in 1992.
The Tories recd 2.7m fewer votes yesterday than they did in 1992.

Schooled.

Share of the vote is more significant.

^^There's another lesson for you.

The Tories got 36.9% yesterday. Tory share in 1992 iyo?

Are you Pandy in disguise?  Cripps warned me about your sort ...

Tory share in 2010: 36.1%
Tory share in 2015: 36.9%

Labour share in 2010: 29.0%
Labour share in 2015: 30.4%

Tory Gov't majority and SNP up here is the best result I could have hoped for.

Rule Britannia!

I know you're uppset Mike but it won't seem so bad in the morning.

The next five years will soon go.
And then you can all bend over and let the Tories spank you bottoms again.

Dr Crippen     08 May 15 19:56

They gained more support than the Tories. Keep trying to educate me though.

That Tory share in 1992 that you declined to answer? 41.9%

Not sure about spanking, I reckon the Tories are set to shaft the great unwashed with the thick end of a ragman's trumpet.

Keep trying Mike, you've only need another 100 seats.

Oh, that's forgetting the boundary changes the Tories will get through this time.

Make that 125 seats.

Yes PokerDane, you can see why they're so bitter at seeing the Tories get in.

Understandably apprehensive to be fair.

125 seats? I can't see the Tories resorting to gerrymandering...

WOOF

I don't think this has gone how you wanted has it Gallagher Groupie? 4 million votes knowing full well UKIP couldn't get near power seems a pretty good result to me. Third biggest party in the country having kicked a party of government over the fence. I think the word you are searching for is seismic.

I presume you mean Galloway, EO? I hate the fu cking Gallaghers!

No. That bellend OP. I presume his forum name is a reference to one of their lesser known dirges.

Ah, fair enough. One of their better dirges if you ask me!

To be fair they did do some good songs especially amongst their lesser known ones. Not so much this one for me. Whisper it now but there was a moment when I understood what it must have been like for Beatles and Stones fans in the 60's awaiting a new record. Then Roll With It came out.

Galloway took his defeat badly.

Hasn't happened yet in Scotland. They are likely to bring in contracting to Scotland this year. How that and the closing of courts will fit in with the push for the abolition of the cornerstone of Scottish Criminal Justice 'corroboration' is anybodies question.

Another progressive, Socialist policy by the SNP which allows the state to prosecute anyone on the basis of a single persons word in an attempt to win headlines from Police Scotland (now effectively Glasgow police since the SNP centralised the police in Scotland so that places like Wick and Dunoon had to work follow the same guidelines as a city with about 600,000 poeple) and Womans Aid.

Well done to the SNP and UKIP and even through gritted teeth the tories,
tonight's real losers were the lib dems, and labour, as a lifelong labour voter since circa 1978 I've always followed my dear departed old man RIP 2005 a true Cheltenham veteran.

In 2010 I think I voted lib dems as a protest vote, in my ignorance I didn't believe they'd sell their souls for 30 pieces of silver, I hope they rot in hell and never ever return, this time the only credible party was UKIP Farage boxed them all senseless in every political debate and if he's racist then so am I.

To all the bile spouting right wing fascists be very careful what you wish and gloat for, and to be fair if I was one the countries elitist top 10% mega rich I would probably vote to keep them in, I wouldn't but perhaps that will smokescreen the luvvies.

Still, has to be said that you can fool all of the people all,of the time, apologies for the comma too tired to correct it now, but a fantastic result for Cameron he was probably the most surprised man in the country, and also an incredible exit poll that no one believed on 0.004 % of the population I bet some people did their nuts on here, myself included managed to,lose on both my SNP bets two seats out of fifty odd and they both lost Edinburgh south and Dumfriesshire , Edinburgh South was the most marginal and somehow it ddnt swing, thank god for Cheltenham aintree and punchestown every year.

Well done sir. A man of honour when things haven't gone well for them is a rarity.

I voted Ukip but am very happy with the final result, as long as the traitors of Labour are kept out everything is cool!

@Orsoncart
The SNP failed in Edinburgh South because their candidate Neil Hay had been outed as a troll on twitter using a pseudonym.
He had said that OAPs were too senile to vote and compared those that voted NO in the independence referendum to Nazi collaborators.
BTW despite this Nicola Sturgeon defended him.
