sole focus clearly isn't working. People need to see the effect a UKIP govt would actually

have on them.
The more we just stamp our feet and shout RACIST the easier it is for people to ignore unless UKIP do something really stupid.

Actually Farage did that this week and they've got through it pretty much unscathed.
It would require photos of him Saluting a Swastica for the racist angle to really work anymore I think.

He's been allowed, mainly by the BBC, to push this 'voice of the people angle' and its caught on.
His parties policies don't really reflect that and this is where Labour more than any other party needs to be taking the fight.
