Farage's offer of a UKIP/Tory election pact

You may be aware that Farage has said that he is prepared to consider approaches from eurosceptic Conservatives to run joint candidates in some constituencies. LINK. It reminds us of the farce that was Lord Pearson and his idiotic support for so-called euro-sceptic Tory candidates during the last General Election. LINK.

We can confirm that several members of UKIP branches have contacted Junius to confirm that they will oppose ANY co-operation with the Conservative party. And they would certainly reject any attempt by Farage to force them to accept his proposal.

Several anti-Tory UKIPPERS expressed surprise when we told them that UKIP already has a close working relationship with members of the Tory ECR Group.

As one said:

"What is the point of our party claiming to be an alternative to the Tories when we are prepared to jump into bed with them at every opportunity?"

Farage's offer of a deal with the Conservatives again confirms a simple sad fact - UKIP is nothing more than a Tory pressure group.
