We're breaking new ground with a proposal for recall voting

MikeTV

It looks as though "recall voting" is becoming a hot topic all of a sudden. Can anyone give me the real scoop why recall voting is suddenly popular amongst those who are farther right than mainstream tories? What's the thinking here? Or is it just an attempt to whittle away at the first past the post system, to increase UKIP/far right representation? Or are they just after anything which is not PR? Obviously, it appeals to those who depend on knee jerk popularism. But is there anything else behind it? I'm not really sure what the hidden agenda is here. Anyone?

(ps. this question is directed at those who are not UKIP supporters)

Thou doth protest too much, methinks. Nobody has mentioned racism of any sort, other than you, in this thread. What a silly post.

What is it about UKIP that you believes makes them 'farther right than the mainstream Tories'?

(Because only someone deliberately trying to provoke a reaction could label a controlled immigration policy as a) racist or b) particularly right wing).

Indeed, Farage is on way too often.

sidicks

Given the support UKIP have in the polls at the moment, why should he NOT be included?!

krish

how many no-score draws did they get?

MikeTV

The usual things.

Such as?
