UKIP

Philip Stephens in the FT is so right in his article about UK politics.

I’ve been a left wing Tory all my life (I’m 56!) and feel now I have nowhere to vote unless they regain the centre, apply sensible efficient monetarist policies to such things as crime and punishment and ditch things completely like capital punishment and opposition to Europe.

The other problem is the ‘Hop off you Frogs!’ style in the tabloids.

Unless a party panders to this minority, they get lampooned and humiliated.

It’s strange (and gratifying) really, how over the last few years the FT has become the most unbiased and sensible newspaper on most mainstream subjects, by just following a scientifically correct view on everything!
