The best way to measure support for UKIP is at parliamentary by-elections.
Their latest stand at the three by-elections held a few weeks ago (all won by Labour) indicates an average of 8% of votes, the highest being at Corby with 14%.
The coming by-election in Rotherham this Thursday will reveal the latest support percentage for UKIP.
The race there appears to be between Labour and UKIP, which could possibly become Britain's second party if they pull second.
If the Tories don't come first there - and they won't - it will be their fourth straight by-election defeat in 2 weeks.
Mr. Fabricant's claim is an euphemism, as he suggests the Conservatives could have 20 seats more in the next Parliament if allied with UKIP. In reality, without an alliance with UKIP, the Tories could lose 100-200 seats!
The present number of UKIP supporters is equal to about one third of Tory supporters, tendency rising dramatically!
