Possibly, but there's a dearth of anyone of substance or any "like-ability" factor anywhere else ( Ed Milliband is completely devoid of personality or inspiration and people feel like Cameron and Clegg have screwed up their chance) which is why UKIP with their 12% and growing are likely to be extremely influential in the local elections.

Personally, I refuse to vote for any of them.

Oi, who are you calling old!

I agree that other parties would benefit from fresh faces on the candidate menu.

Personally I believe that it would be most beneficial in the long run if UKiP attained power. Its the only way to effectively discredit them in the eyes of the great unwashed.

To my slight shame, I play chess competitively from time to time. I turned up at a typically shabby match venue to find two very elderly ladies and one very elderly man effectively barking at each other in a corridor. One of the ladies turned to me and said, 'Are you here for the UKIP branch meeting?' She looked so crestfallen when I said no that I almost felt sorry enough to attend their meeting.

it took the lib dems 30 years and they only got a slight sniff of power.

I doubt they will get a majority for a while. But they may well destabilise the Tory vote, which is a pity we will get the spend and squander party back.

I am not much of an expert but do you think that UKiPCon class 2015 is a possibility ?

unless the entire shadow cabinet get caught in bed together with a herd of shetland ponies in suspenders I doubt it.
