Ah right, shows how the memory plays tricks (it was 19 years ago now, after all - now that's depressing)
I'm sure UKIP beat the Referendum Party somewhere in that election......

If I remember 'Were you still up for Portillo?' right, Mellor had actually provoked the jeering by making some snide comment likening the minor candidates to zoo animals. The confusion in this thread seems to have been caused by ambiguity about which candidates David (and/or Mellor) was referring to. Is there a direct quote of the exact wording he used? Or a link? Apart from his reference to Goldsmith's "attempt to buy the political process ", I don't remember a reference to other minor parties or candidates.

I don't understand your last paragraph. I don't follow the use of the word increase in front of many of your stats not all of which make sense. The word "increase" refers to the previous number, indicating whether it increased on the previous number.
