Political earthquake brewing.......the onslaught from the establishment has been relentless and would make Stalin blush.

But it seems it hasn't worked.

Sky News

has live coverage for those interested. Hopefully the start of something so drastically needed here. Hell of a long way to go.

The anti Farage crowd isn’t pulling any punches on twitter.

I know its going to be big because the BBC has really cranked up their anti-UKIP propaganda.

I hope the UKIP kicks butt today!!!

It would be interesting if UKIP won, but I don’t think that the lessons would necessarily translate to conservatives here in the states. Mr. Farage is an impeccable orator, and very quick on his feet. I see very few politicians in the US that could match that. Also, the British media for all their faults is a lot more diverse in their views and fairer in their coverage of political candidates who don’t share their views.

tidal wave incoming

[SoFloFreeper]

All three of Britain's three main political parties have strongly criticised the UK Independence Party (UKIP), which wants Britain to leave the European Union and to impose much tougher immigration controls, prompting the party to take out an advert in a national newspaper to assert that it is not racist.

Damn, sounds like the establishment in Britain hates it when they have competition.

A shame UKIP has to waste money saying they're not racist. I hope they have some members who are non-white who speak out...do they have a Herman Cain, or a Star Parker, who can let everyone know patriots come in all colors? I think with a small population like Britain, it might have a stronger effect than here in America.

thoughts?

Daniel Hannan tweet

Now at the count in Basingstoke. It has been a long day and, to deal plainly, I fear it will not be our best result.

For those of us in the states, Hannan's bad day is actually a good day.

We’re only making plans for Nigel!

I hope UKIP hasn’t been running defensive “we are not racists” ads.
