Actually I think UKIP should be pretty happy about the existence of the Liberal Party and about the fact that some of us ex-Ukippers are joining it rather than dropping out of active politics altogether.
In many respects I still think UKIP is a good party. I think it will have an important role to play in Britain's future politics, and I will probably vote for it in the London elections on May 1st. I no longer feel able to actively campaign for the party because of recent changes in some of its policies on immigrations etc. But I'm happy that the Liberal Party co-operates with UKIP on some campaigns such as ID cards and the referendum on the Lisbon Treaty.
It is also a matter of interest. The Liberals are much more interested in getting things done at local council level, while UKIP are more focussed on Brussels. Both approaches have their place.
