They're great. I love them. And the same goes for most Jewish intellectuals who are independent. I referenced Laurence Kotlikoff earlier, the lead designer of the 'The Purple Health Plan.'
Laurence is politically independent (see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurence_Kotlikoff#Political_parties) and that hasn't stopped him from practicing a wise altruism in his career choices. That's cool in my book.
Check out this free tool he developed during the recession to help everyday people engage in easy to understand financial planning which he gives away at no cost (ESP Planner): https://basic.esplanner.com/

Your own ignorance does not equate to any truth whatsoever. An unknowledgable person, but who possessed a measure of wisdom, would have asked a simply asked, "Why?"
Though unknowledgable, you do not possess even that simple measure of wisdom and have again violated the forum's rules. So, consider this post reported as a result.
Since you cannot do anything but engage in making false assertions and calling me names here at CC, I will not be replying to your future posts unless I see where some form of epistemological correction is necessary to prevent you from deceiving future readers. This is done out of love for their benefit, of course.
Moving along...

Well given the conservatives have now been granted a 5 year reign the simple answer to your question is "no" and by the time their term is up our country will be at the point of no return - if it isn't already! The problem we have is (for all intents and purposes) Europe overruling just about everything our government does that is good. An example of this I heard on the news this morning; Europe has ordered us to take in some of the illegal immigrants arriving in other parts of Europe by boat. Have you seen the size of France??? Germany?? Do you know that France has the same population as Britain? Now look at the size difference in our countries! The only reprieve we just might have is Cameron's "promise" of a Europe in/out referendum and the vote going the "out" way...I know it's a long shot! France and Germany effectively run the rest of Europe and they often seem to view Britain as "easy pickings". Now you have gotten me all hot under the collar over Europe grrr! Oh for the pre-Europe days when we did business with the new world and the commonwealth. Guess who got us into Europe? Yep the conservatives and it was sold to the British people as purely a marketing arrangement.
Back to your original question, the leader of UKIP has resigned which will at some time bring about a party referendum for a new leader - possibly re-electing Ferage - if he is up for it. They have to rise up from this defeat and build a bigger, stronger party and we need to change our voting system - see my earlier post on votes cast/seats won, Cameron isn't about to change what works for him now is he? All of this needs to be done before UKIP have any chance of winning an election in the future, a more realistic aim is for them to be part of a coalition government some time in the future. The problem with UKIP is they are not politically correct and being politically correct is everything in today's Britain.

Sadly, I believe you're right. And it's a shame for Britain could really benefit from those two parties working together toward resolving it's most pressing issues.
And yes, it's difficult to imagine anyone other than Farage as head of UKIP. But, everyone knew this day was coming. UKIP will stand or fall on how well it handles replacing Farage. If they can get another real winner, the party may plant deep roots and continue to grow it's support base (though not as fast as it has obviously). If they can't, well...
But you're right that time is running out for Britain... tick tock...
I guess the real question at this point is will Cameron keep his promise to hold an EU referendum.

Breaking News: UKIP Rejects Nigel Farage's Resignation
Incidently Ageofknowledge & Desdichado, your knowledge of British politics is far superior to my knowledge of American politics. Pretty much all I know is Obama is a Democrat (Liberal) and that lady with glasses (the hockey mom lol) is Republican (Conservative) oh and that Hilary Clinton - wife of the cheating but charismatic Bill is running for office for the Democrats? Phew did I get all that right? I know there are more on both sides running for office but they are not well reported over here and so their names are not familiar with me. I'm sure someone will shout me down if I'm wrong with any of this but I did warn you I know nothing about American politics. Even some of the political (and other) words you use confuse me lol.

Truly revolting. Britain's watershed has arrived if Britons can't find a way to reconnect with who they were and should be again. My message to the Brits is pull yourselves up by your own bootstraps or drop the pretenses and get down on your knees and bow down to your master the EU. Is there any mettle left in Britain?
