The red Kipper flies at midnight!*

[Brenus]

Funny: As a French living in UK, I can up-set a lot of UKIP followers just in agreeing with them when they say UK should never had joined the EU, UK is not European etc…
Normally, at the end of the conversation, comes the sentence “if you are not happy in UK you can go back to France” (or alternative “why are you here?”) to which I answer: “I can’t! I married an English woman!” And the most funny is the sympathetic nod of understanding I’ve got then…

Now, we see in the GB media the same thing I see in the French Media. UKIP didn’t win the election. Labour did in seats and Councils. But the media are going on and on with the UKIP.
Like the Front National in France, the UKIP is a tool for the two main parties to keep power. UKIP as the Front National is a useless party.
Their political platform can be summarised “anti-emigration”. Nor does Marine Le Pen or Nigel Farrage have a clue what to do in the unlucky event they get in power. They both support the system that destroyed the population and the jobs in both countries. They are both the Capitalist guard-dog, or the Dark Menace of the Lord Sith that will help the 2 main political streams (which have the same economic policy) to herd the voters not to vote for others parties that might advocate for other economical/political solution.

Let's recap the UKIP Earthquake:
UKIP: 157 seats
Labour: 1891 seats
Con: 1259 seats
LD: 404 seats.

So how much on Richter's scale?
