Tory voters who support Ukip in this month’s European elections are like grooms on their stag night who indulge in bad behaviour before settling down and being responsible, David Cameron’s communications chief has suggested.
In controversial remarks made to a private meeting, Craig Oliver is said to have likened Ukip voters to men who wanted a “last chance to have a bit of fun” – before returning to vote Tory again at the general election.
They really don’t get it, do they? We are sick of them – the faceless grey suited Euphiles, the professional political class. Sure, some of Ukip’s support comes from Tories who want to dish out a safe kicking and some will switch to the Tories for fear of the vile Milipede Minor in Number 10. But for some of us, the very thought of casting a vote for any of the big three is an anathema. I will not switch to Tory at the general election. I might abstain, I might vote for a small party, but I will not – nor will I ever again – vote for LibLabCon.
The Tory strategy, therefore seems to be steady as she goes, for the people who are not voting for them at the EU elections will switch next year. So, no, they are still not listening. But did we ever expect them to?
Same here, i haven’t voted for one of the three cheeks of the same arse party since before Blair first came to power, and no i didn’t vote for that sleazy greedy little twerp either.
I’ve voted for all sorts since, and writ large ”none of the above” frequently enough.
No they don’t get it do they, we, the relatively normal man in the street, the ones actually doing some bloody work and paying their way in life, have had enough of the bastards, we despise them, their lies, their cowardice, their conceit, their treason, their kissing of the american arse, their wars and regime changes in oil rich zones, their failure to ever answer a bloody question, their fiddles and greed…and no more grasping a bastard than that lying shit blair.
UKIP’ll do for me, and i’ll be continuing to vote for them until the political corrupt class gets the message and pisses off.

It is a measure of these parties’ contempt for the electorate that whilst they rightly ridicule Farage and his band of clowns, they do not think to look at themselves and ask why we still find the option to vote for UKIP more palatable than any of them.
They really do think this is going to go away after the Euro elections don’t they? These people are in for a shock and I am looking forward to seeing thier faces as we get close to June 2015 and it finally starts to dawn on them that many of them are going to be out on thier arses.
I have to say that I lost quite a lot of faith in the UK electorate after so many of the expense fiddlers were returned to office after the last election. If people had, on mass refused to vote for any sitting MP who had done the slightest bit of expense fiddling, then perhaps they would have got the message that there are things that we won’t tolerate. As it is, it’s hardly surprising that they treat us with contempt and think that they can get away with it, it appears that they can.
I won’t be voting liblabcon in the forseeable future either.
Splendid. They’re clearly have no clue what’s going on. The shock when reality bites is going to be hilarious.
The party has been taken back by out-of-touch aristos and third sector milquetoasts. The successful Conservative years were when they had a a grocer’s daughter and the son of a music hall performer who knew what the public wanted.
They’ve done so much to position themselves next to Labour that millions of people don’t want what they’re selling and aren’t scared of Labour getting in, because the difference is almost non-existent.
Personally I enjoy a good stag night. Perhaps the 22nd would be a good choice?…
You all appear to be asuming that the average voter has an IQ greater than their shoe size.
They are, always were, and wilol always remain to be, as thick as pig shit mixed with cement.
Of COURSE the imbicilic twats will vote for whichever party offeres them a 0,0000001% tax cut above any other party.
REGARDLESS of what colour rossete they are wearing that day.
The general street imbicile is only interested in how much is in their wallet. They could not give a twopenny TOSS about other policys.
That was partly my point FT.
There is a discussion about energy policy over at Bishop Hill where faith in liblabcon politicians seems to be as low as it is here.
