Any resemblance to the career of Sir Alan B'stard is puely coincidental.
These bloody EUropean politicans with their dodgy European names fleecing hard working British patriots; Down with that sort of thing

That really does look like he's going to stick with "Brexit Party" candidates running in Leave-inclined/ Labour-held/Tory-target marginals then doesn't it?
There were all these screech-headlines in yesterday's Tory press putting pressure on Farage to stand his idiots, I mean people
, down in those constituencies ...

I would imagine Farage has an accountant or two working for him to ensure such things are minimised

Having effectively compelled 50% (+?) of his electoral supporters to vote Conservative, Farage himself says he can't/won't even though he lives in Tory held Orpington (Jo Johnson's former seat). So it's Labour, LD, Green or spunking cock for Farage, then?

Despite standing down over 300 the BP are still a treasure trove of head the balls:

Yep shoutycrackers Kate standing...will be interesting to see how that seat plays. One Corbyn has to win if he’s to have any hope.

Yeah, but they could get up to 4.9% of the popular vote and still lose their deposit. There's a few seats where that sort of % could prove to be an important factor, no?

Let me dream. But yeah you're probably right. Mansfield will be close though.

I hope it's close, but the only projection I've seen for Mansfield has the tories with a 16 point lead and BP with another 15 - even with yer headbanger taking as much as 5 of that 15 most of the rest is likely to go tory. Maybe the projection is wrong, or maybe Labour can make another miraculous comeback, but it's by no means certain Mansfield will be close.
Polling seems to be pretty clear that most of the BP support comes from ex tories, and most of it would split to the tories in the absence of a BP candidate. In 2017 the tories took 45% of the 2015 UKIP vote, Labour only took 11% - if anything the split is likely to favour the tories more this time, given Labour's more remain leaning position.

Hmmm you may well be right. I was basing this off the fact Tory support had never been high there before.
We only have the best for britain MRP with constituency projections so far, so that's the only data I can really base my view on, in the absence of any detailed local knowledge. The polls have moved since that was published though, and some of the seat projections have differed markedly from some of the local polling Survation have done. so...
