What I mean is the question about Fargage's wife........Its his bloody wife ffs. The fact that she is his wife surely negates his hypocrisy? Had he employed some young fraulein from Berlin, then, yes, he might well be a hypocrite. I'm inclined to think that it because the public are stupid and irrational. There are good reasons for employing your wife when you are in his position. I thought employing relatives was part of the whole "expenses culture" which UKIP are supposed to be railing about?

A poll like this gives me hope that Sajjad Karim might get the boot in the NW.

ComRes, Euro poll:
UKIP 38% Lab 27% Con 18% LD 8%

I tend to agree with AC here, also these figures are fairly meaningless when they show a sudden surge. If anything, UKIP are in danger of peaking far too early and heading for a decent result being portrayed as disappointing.

Both the TNS and ComRes figures are based just on those "10/10 certain to vote" - which may or may not be a more reliable yardstick to use here.

I do hope you will cook it well before eating it. You can rest assured, your Lordship Should this become necessary I shall come down and prepare it myself in such a manner as to totally disguise its origin and mask it with large volumes of Clynelish. But, don't hold out these hostages to fortune AC!

Though, being Comres, it probably incorporates a host of other basic errors.

They havent peaked too early, only 3 weeks till the election and they have all the momentum. Labour are risking being part of the establishment instead of an alternative. Nick Clegg must be wishing he never challenged Farage in the first place, as it has done more harm than good.

There is no way that UKIP will get 36-38% in the election. As for Labour, they need to be colse to thirty percent to be happy with the result. Also, I agree about Clegg's challenge to Farage - a foolish mistake.

Also, I agree about Clegg's challenge to Farage - a foolish mistake. I still think that Clegg's challenge was a good plan, he simply failed to execute it properly. In any event the purpose of him challenging Farage wasn't to harm UKIP but to bolster his own party's support from strongly pro-EU voters.

Also, I agree about Clegg's challenge to Farage - a foolish mistake. The final polls will be somewhere along the lines of: Ukip 29 Lab 28 Con 21 L/D 8 That isn't to say that UKIP wont get 36% in SE, London or East. We will lose loads of seats and end up with about 18 UKIP won't get 36% in London. I doubt they can reach that high in the SE either. East may be possible.

ComRes and TNS are both pretty shit even by the less than glorious standards of the British polling industry.

I'm still confused as to why a Marches/Mid Wales football club is conducting opinion polls though.

As things stand, I'll go for: UKIP 30% Lab 29% Con 20% LD 11% Greens 4% others 6%

Is there a reason the previous two poll postings didn't include the Green percentage?
