We've had Local Elections, we've had European Elections now we have a By-Election, if you live in Newark you're in for a treat, you get to vote 3 times in one year.
As loyal as i am to the Conservative Party, i just don't think UKIP have the ground, the people or the funds to fight this By-Election.
The whole UKIP thingy seems like a flash in the pan, you can only shock and awe for so long before the initial shock wears off, take Iraq for example, we gave them shock and awe and it didn't take long before they wanted us out, in the same analogy it won't take long before people want UKIP out.
Sensationalising by the media is what has got people hopping around like bunnies shouting UKIP are going to do this and that, clearly a party with one policy isn't really going anywhere.
With that being said today in Newark over 600 activists turned out to campaign for the upcoming By-Election, but was it panic and fear of UKIP or merely the oldest party in the country flexing it's political muscle?
This By-Election for me won't throw up any shocks, i wasn't shocked by the European Election results, i don't think UKIP are going to shock me in this election.
