UKIP Saved

UKIP is saved, so the Lib Dems are saved, despite their much bigger, much dodgier donor. The Lib Dems are, after all, part of the junta; more so now than ever, in fact, with Ministers in all but name.

No wonder the Creepy Electoral Commission is put out. It was told to kill off UKIP, it dutifully constructed a thoroughly passable case for doing so, and then it turned up to find that someone higher up had worked out the consequences and changed the script.

Still, UKIP will carry on killing itself off anyway, without any need for outside help. As will the Lib Dems.
