Lord Ashcroft: Ukip plunge in aftermath of Channel 4 programme
UK Independence Party drops 5 points in wake of Channel 4 docudrama and offensive comments from councillor.
Ukip have been hit hard in the polls, falling five points in a week, according to polling carried out by the Conservative peer Lord Ashcroft.
The party’s support felt to 11 per cent of the vote, the lowest share since the former Tory donor began analysing voting intentions.
Ukip’s poll slump comes after Ofcom received thousands of complaints following a docudrama by Channel 4, Ukip: The First 100 Days, which imagined the party leader Nigel Farage as the Prime Minister.
A Ukip councillor was also expelled from the party after saying she had "a problem" with black people, and making other offensive remarks.

How ironic is this. UKIP use fear to gain support and it is fear that ends up seeing their support dwindle.
Irony at its best.
