May.chievelli routs Ukip

Kill off Ukip by pretending to be a rabid Leaver,get a tidy majority and then reveal the old Remainer underneath and do a stitchup with Brussels? Looks like the plan and it may well be effective. Ukip had two good policies of slashing foreign aid and abolishing the BBC tv licence but they look like going the way of the Mauritius dodo. Either way the public is given the bleak choice of two rival mafia gangs to choose from. The very low turn out rate, in places under 30% suggests they are beginning to rumble this obvious fact or have succumbed to a severe attack of ennui.
