To be clear, UKIP *are* a party of fruit cakes, nutters and closet racists

The worst thing about yesterday's vote is that it's given them credibility that they do not deserve. Of course you find politicians of all parties misbehaving, but in UKIP it's clearly endemic. Here are some greatest hits:

They are dangerous loonies who are scarcely more credible than the BNP. In general though the media has done a terrible job of reporting this because of their excitement at the political upheaval they might herald.
