A vote for Ukip is a 'suicide note' for Eurosceptics who want Britain to leave the European Union, Iain Duncan Smith has warned.
The Tory Work and Pensions Secretary said only the Conservatives can deliver a referendum on the EU.
He claimed support for Ukip would only help put Labour in power, with Ed Miliband refusing to give the British people a say on severing ties with Brussels.

Yep, minority government - it’s rare in the UK, but it can happen. You’re more likely to see that in systems with proportional representation, but even there, it’s uncommon.
It could happen - the UK polls are all pretty much within the statistical margin of error so the UK could end up with a hung parliament. From what I’ve read, a quarter of voters are still undecided. What remains to be seen is whether those votes break towards the government (Tories) or the opposition (Labour, UKIP, etc.)
Probably won’t know for about 24 hours after the polls close who’s gonna be in charge, unless there’s a decisive victory.
So #GE0215 is trending. Well done to everyone for voting in a 3rd century election!
#GE0215: why everyone's saying they've voted in an election that happened 1,800 years ago http://t.co/IssnuvjzkR pic.twitter.com/JbYywsDTXe— The Independent (@Independent) May 7, 2015
Sounds reminiscent of our uniparty. “Ya gotta vote for our crappy candidate cuz if you don’t, you’re voting for their crappy candidate.”
Since there is no reason to vote FOR the Tories, the Tories have to scare people into voting AGAINST the UKIP.
eh, the UK Conservative party already committed suicide by shifting leftwards.
Its kind of amusing, after the UK/US establishment ignores real Conservatives they demand their vote come election time.
Go Nigel !
Talk about fear mongering. Go UKIP
Same song different country. :-)
