A new survey by the 80-year-old polling firm TNS-BRMB has given Nigel Farage's UK Independence Party a whopping nine point lead over the Labour Party, whereas ComRes data from today gives the party an 11 point lead, putting it in a firm first place for the European elections on May 22nd.

The voting intentions of TNS-BRMB's latest poll shows Labour on 27 percent (-3), UKIP on 36 percent (+7), Conservatives on 18 percent (-3) and Liberal Democrats on 10 percent (+1). A voting preference of 'Other' command nine percent of the vote (-2).

The ComRes poll shows that UKIP has opened up a clear lead in the run up to next month’s elections for the European Parliament. Thirty-eight percent of Britons certain to vote say that they would cast their ballot for the party, compared to 27 percent who would vote for Labour, 18 percent who would vote for the Conservatives and 8 percent who would vote Lib Dem.

The TNS-BRMB data takes into account all voters, while ComRes is only amongst those certain to vote.

"Looking at this further, we can see that a significant proportion of the UKIP support is made up of people who did not vote or who voted for the Conservatives in the 2009 European elections. The former group is one that might concern Nigel Farage and the UKIP leadership as there is no guarantee that they will turn out to vote on May 22nd," TNS reported.

Kafir uprising in the works?

We here aren’t as far along in terms of having a viable, 3rd party conservative party - especially one that is on the verge of taking power - so I sit on this side of the pond and cheer them on.

The Soviet States of America haven’t had enough socialism/communism yet to be that enlightened. We have a long hard fall ahead of us.

One has to start somewhere. The Republicans and Democrats have had it. Both parties are useless.

Our nominally non-party/winner take all system combined with over 100 years of the two parties writing the rules to make a national third party next to impossible to establish means that the fighting has to take place within the parties. Just as the commie hippies displaced the southerner/George Meany union Democrats, the regular folks have to displace the feminazi/eastern establishment/crony Chamber of Commerce Republicans.

What you describe should be an obvious truth, but we still have an element who repeatedly claims there is absolutely no difference between the GOP and the Jackass Party.

I was one of them once. Then I grew up.

Sometimes it seems that way. The trick is to stick with it until you go from 49% to 51% within the same party. Add 5-10 years to weed out the posers (like Jimmy Carter, who grabbed a lot of support that should have gone to Scoop Jacksaon or George Wallace).

There is a distinction between a dead elephant and a dead jackass. It’s not a difference.

I think we are simply seeing the anti-Brussels feeling in the UK electorate.

If you don’t like the EU, voting for the UKIP is about the only way of showing it.

Couldn’t happen to a more deserving group of whiney appeasers.

UK Conservatives: don't waste your vote on a distant third party in this election. Vote for the UKIP.

[UKrepublican]

Amen to that!

[Jabba the Nutt]

We have here our anti-third party folks saying don’t vote for UKIP, because all you’ll do is elect Labour. They ignore the fact that UKIP is taking votes from Labour. Here’s a poll that proves it.
