Regarding the figure of 13% quoted in the first posting to this thread - 13% (if not more) are regularly voting for 'other parties' (i.e. not for Labour/Conservative/Fiberal Dims) on a regular basis in local elections.

UKIP and the English Democrats (ED) could substantially increase their support in local elections. And, of course, there are no lost deposits (although the pro-EU parties will try and change that :evil: if UKIP/ED and others start making big gains in council elections).
