Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I suppose it all depends on whose figures you utilise, according to the Government it was only .96 % not 3.3 % rise between those two years, with 12.2 million unable to vote as under age. Percentage Points rise over the previous result! If only we were a true democracy, min you, can't think of any around the World, like Communisim, good in theory, never happen in practice as human beings are just that, humans with all the same faults and greed! Given the average 'Independant' (all those other parties) voting figures was less than 27! think you may have a harder time than you think gaining 1,663! - consistently around the country and not just at a single local seat.

I just took the figures from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demography_of_the_United_Kingdom#Vital_statistics_1960_-_2012, which are from the Office of National Statistics. 62.02 million people in 2010, 60.05 million in 2005. It seems a reasonable assumption that the proportion of people of voting age has remained constant in that time.

Should we ask Lord Fetch to re-name this, ''UKIP leader to appear on Question Time'' as undoubtedly he will at some point.

....I know, he's been on 16 times already, just thinking the next will probably be the most relevant since his two 'back door' MPs were elected
