Tories are predicted to come 3rd in the 22 May Euro elections.

They are predicted to lose councillors in the local elections on the same date.

Then there's the Scottish referendum.

How many of these elections can he afford to lose before someone in his party overthrows him?

Who will be leading the party at the General Election in May 2015?

Same question about Clegg - when will the Libs ditch him as unelectable?

'She would say that now wouldn't she?'

Please put the following words in the right order ; but, fair, harsh.


Sometimes you are the Ernie Wise to my Eric, if you set the gag up, be sure I'll deliver it. lol

There you go again Ismebut, playing the man and not the ball. Your rhetoric sounds as though it was squirted straight to your Blackberry by Central Office, as it is so out of touch with reality.

I desperately hoped last night that Farage would not stand in Newark, me reasons:

  1. UKIPs focus should be on the EU elections and this campaign that they have spent 3 years campaigning for

  2. UKIP is much more than Farage. The party is trying to gain exposure for its other very able candidates. If Farage stood in Newark he would face accusations that UKIP is a one-man band

  3. He has no connections to Newark so would look as though he was simply an opportnist. He didnt stand in Eastleigh so why should he be expected to stand in Newark.

  4. He has to weigh up the possibility of UKIP coming 2nd and then beind called a flash in the pan just before the 2015 election. Thats too risky, especially as the entire might of the established Tory and Labour parties will descend on Newark and blitz the place. UKIp could not compete with their resources

    Of course people like Ismebut will accuse him of bottling it and John Piemar is becoming a very biased BBC commentator in some of his anti-UKIP remarks when he accused Farage of not standing because he knew a 16,000 majority could not be overturned..

    But Farage has to do whats best for the party and that has to be focusing on the EU elections.

WetWipes … you might be needed by Mr Farage, who used to say he was a betting man when worked in the City, at this moment in time.

All Ukip DO is mis-inform and there are a hundred more posts doing it to my one of facts (just by Claig), so leave me alone I’m have fun, having listened to all this 'Conservative’s running from Ukip' shite for months.

If this stat is true I heard on the news, it’s been 25-years since last Conservative MP to Conservative MP by-election success, with a current unpopular incumbent Conservative led government, led by a P.M. dishing out unpopular but necessary medicine, where you’re not usually recognised as useful until death and the rest of the world make a fuss; not so much a Farage ‘earthquake’, more of a Farage ph-ut( in his rompers).

P.S. Do you really think that anyone from Conservative Central Office could/would fight down in the trenches like me? Lol.

I am not sure that Farage isnt "out of the frying pan, into the fire".

Plenty of voters want out of the frying pan of all the current main parties.
But is Farage and UKIP a safe haven at least for now.

And fire down the line?

P.P.S. Is it not lost on you the subject of this thread and the complete rollocks about Cameron, with real political and national successes, attacked by fishy U-kippers - and here was Farage's chance to put his money where his mouth was, as 'a Ukip win in Newark could destroy Cameron' and he bottled it?

The EU MEP battle is already won, there are only so many people now needed to lie to on what Ukip could do to bring the UK out of the EU and stop immigration.

Isitmebut

S sad that you have to resort to personal attack. You know what my MN name is and chose to try to ridicule it.

If you are truly representative of Tories then hell would freeze over before you would ever gain my vote.

Enjoy the remainder of your coalition.

WetAugust ... "Farage ph-ut (in his rompers)" and "WetWipes" ... "a personal attack"???

That was no personal attack oh delicate one.

Ukip pussies can give it, but can't take it.

Now THAT was a personal attack on an Ukip organization, so far up their own one-policy-pony rectum, that they're starting to believe their own lies they CAN bring us out of the EU/stop open door immigration - getting closer to a cult every week that goes by.

You really are riled about something Isitmebut. It's completely taking you away from the actual debate.

But if you insist on renaming people then you shall forever be known as

Isitmebut-that-I-am-talikng-out-of.

Because I think you probably are.

WetAugust...please forgive me, it has taken nearly a week to get over that side-splitter of yours Isitmebut-that-I-am-(something)-out-of.

Re am I "riled about something"...I'm not angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry, as I tend to go Green, a party that seems to have more decent policies than Labour and Ukip's zero manifesto's put together.

The thread is about 'what would it take for the Tories to ditch (or maybe itch) Cameron', according to the title.

I'm sorry if I have quoted some supporting facts on his record why HE wouldn't be itched/scratched by his own party - especially as in a leader beauty contest in a fugly contest he has proven success in running the country and playing well with others - but if this post was just meant to assassinate him and replace him with one of the no clue ugly sisters, it deserved balance. IMO.
