It comes as no surprise that UKIP has lined up with Labour and the Lib Dems, backed less officially but no less effectively by Greens and Independents, in order to deprive the Conservatives of the Leadership of Norfolk County Council and give that position to the Leader of the Labour Group.

UKIP people may not like the Labour Party, although they probably know very little about it. They would be fiercer on the subject of the Lib Dems. But their only real hatred is of the Conservative Party.

The hatred that can only be felt, not even by a scorned lover or by an abandoned child, but by an utterly deluded yet utterly sincere person who believes someone totally impossible to have so scorned him or to have so abandoned him.

  1. It was UKIP's founders that abandoned the Tory Party, on account of its support for the EU, not the other way around.

  2. Then they should never have been in it. In any case, Alan Sked was a Liberal.

    But my point stands: the likes of Farage, and certainly as good as all current UKIP voters, are wholly sincere in their total delusion that the Conservative Party was once like them. They believe that it has since rebuffed or abandoned them.

    However, the reality is that it was only ever dimply aware of their existence, and it never, in its own terms, had the slightest reason for even that extremely limited level of awareness of them.
