Earlier this month, we speculated whether UKIP can sufficiently capitalise on anti-ConDem sentiment and win seats in Wales at May’s assembly elections. Following Nigel Farage’s cringingly histrionic performance at yesterday’s campaign launch, we suspect the jury is probably now in hiding over that one.
Having said that, it has to be acknowledged that the perception of an “over-governed” Wales nation was effectively peddled by True Wales et al to the extent that the view resonated with a third of those who voted in the referendum.
Kevin Mahoney, South Wales West regional candidate, might also strike a populist chord with voters in stating that at all levels politicians are essentially “part-timers”. All he needs to do now is explain how he plans to be more gainfully employed if elected.
