Keith, post 44
You write: "ukip wont win a seat".
My posts here are about the County elections.
What analysis do you have to suggest UKIP won't win a seat?
Surely you can't believe that Labour have anything near a chance of winning the Kent County Council majority!
Do you have any opinion poll to support this claim?
While I'm boycotting this election, it's still interesting to see how people will vote - and how many will not vote at all.
But there is no indication Labour will win.
Kent is not Labour territory, never has been.
All indications show UKIP set to achieve a landslide victory.

maybe as Howard says you read not only my post 44
but your very own post 40, where you state labour may well control county council(your words)

"Ukip wont win a seat" is in your post 44, Keith.
That's where I'm wondering where you get the analysis from.
Based on what, Keith? Any opinion polls?
This is election campaign time, so I'm interested in reading what parties and candidates are offering to the electorate.
That DC has offered Austerity we all know, but what makes you think that the people will go out and vote Labour and LibDems and UKIP will get no seat?
Just give me an informative explanation, Keith!

calm down alex - we all know that if you stick a blue rosette on an orang-utang voters in kent would back it.
the question is whether ukip or the reds gain a seat or two here and there.

Far from being worked up, Howard, I'm adamant that on these political threads, at least in time of an election campaign we get our penny's worth of political discussion from those who advocate political parties all year through!
I'd like to know somewhere here why people are supposed to vote for this or that party.
Or why UKIP won't win any seats at all.
I've already stated that I'm not voting, but surely political party exponents should be required to explain why we should vote for their party according to them!
Keith, a good constructive explanation would be required here.
It's election time for Kent. I have no indication Labour will get anywhere at all.
Unless you can indicate otherwise!
Labour isn't even comparable to a protest party here anymore!

you are right with the last line at county level alex, district is where real politics is involved with close results guaranteed.
to be truthful there is very little canvassing being done - no real need, had a bland leaflet from the reds and nothing else and a fe photo opportunities with the blues.
that is the sum of it.

Keith, I know what I wrote, and it is thus:
the split vote between UKIP and the Tories will enable Labour to get in first on average, counting all the County (and Unitarian) elections to be held 2 May, including, but not only, Kent.
But not because Labour has a majority among the electorate.
But specifically in Kent I don't see Labour standing a chance.
This is the problem of a split vote opposing Labour, which I've been noting for a few years as a very big dilemma.
As a result, minority Labour stand to win at elections.
This is a big problem!

That made me laugh I am so glad I am not the only one who gets irritated at times and thinks that.
