UKIP has seen some amazing results overnight in the local elections, depriving the Tories of control of a couple of councils in Essex and making big gains in several councils.
The result everyone will be talking about this morning is Rotherham where UKIP gained won 10 seats, becoming the opposition party. Had the whole council been up for election rather than being elected by thirds, UKIP would probably be in control of the council this morning.
Essex is the big success story of the night with UKIP taking a plethora of seats in Southend, Thurrock, Basildon and Castle Point and depriving the Conservatives of control of two councils and their leaders.
UKIP also won seats in Dudley, Sandwell and Cannock Chase. Husband and wife duo Bill Etheridge who is third on the MEP list for the West Midlands and Star Etheridge who is UKIP's disability spokeswoman both won council seats yesterday.
You can keep up to date with results as we get them on the Bloggers4UKIP Facebook page.

The is a day for all British Patriots to puff out their chests, and stand tall. I am a foot taller than yesterday.
The Purple Peril is on the march. Come and join the people the peoples army. The bugles are calling.

This morning UKIP got a blaze of publicity. With our magnificent chairman Steve Crowther getting on TV.
All through he day results will be trickling in giving UKIP even more good publicity.
Tomorrow all the newspapers will be discussing the local election results.
Then on Sunday the EU Election count begins and this wonderful publicity will start all over again.
This is really is a wonderful time to be a British Patriot.

Only 4 years ago UKIP got about 3% in the 2010 General Election. The UKIP policies have not changed.
In 2010 the UKIP message fell on deaf ears. Now the UKIP message is received with joy.
In my opinion it is the work of all the little people all doing their bit. The little people have worked for 20 years to get these results. Every little helps. Every leaflet put out. Every small donation to the party. Every letter published in the press. Every comment published on the internet.
Nigel Farage is a briliant leader but he could not have done it without the little people working away in the background. Well done all the little people.

The three immigrationist parties all want an EU Federal Superstate. They are all campaigning for the destruction of our Motherland. 75% of British law is already made by the EU. There is very little British sovereignty left.
UKIP is fighting for an independent Britain. We want our country back. We want to make our own laws. We want to protect our own borders. We dont need the EU to tell us what we can do, and what we cannot do. We are the patriots. Anyone that loves their country has to support UKIP. There is no altenative.
For a British Patriot there is no alternative to UKIP. Come and join the peoples army. Vote for UKIP.

The Pfizer bid for AstraZenica ran into a brick wall of patriotism. People are tired of great industries in this country being destroyed by asset strippers. They was a cross party demand for British industry to be protected from these hostile attacks and foreign takerovers.
It seem there were no laws to stop the takeover of AstraZenica, but nevertheless patriotism managed to block the asset strippers in their tracks. Patriotism can be a great force. Public opinion can have force even when it is not backed up by British law.
It is this same patriotic force that is carrying UKIP to victory in these EU Elections. People love this country. People see UKIP as the only party will to defend our Motherland. Come and support the peoples army.

92 is a great result. Only half the votes have been counted.
Things will get better as the day goes on. This is a great day for British Patriots.
Come and join the peoples army.

LETTER
Your correspondent on 22nd May 2014 raises some legitimate concerns regarding the possibility of Turkey joining the European Union.
The three old parties are all pressing hard for Turkey to join the EU.
But no regard has been given as the how this might affect immigration into Britain from Turkey.
There is only one party in Britain that genuinely believes that we should have controlled immigration.

LETTER
Two dangerous prisoners have absconded recently while out on day release from prison.
At least one of the escaped prisoners was serving a life sentence for murder.
This follows hard on the heels of another murderer known as the skull crusher who went on the run while out on day release just a few weeks ago.
It is a mystery why dangerous murderers serving life sentences are being let out on day release.
Many people are starting to believe that Britain is soft on crime.

LETTER
Surging house prices suggest that interest rates are now too low.
A dangerous housing price bubble is building up especially in London.
When the bubble bursts we could find ourselves in another financial crisis just like 2008.
A rise in interest rates is required too cool down the houing market.
Surging house prices are a threat to achieving a sustained economic recovery.

Its Saturday and 11 areas have not yet issued their results.
I cannot see why it should take so long to get the results out.
Achilles · 565 weeks ago
This a very good day for UKIP. But there are 11 areas yet to announce results.
So the figure could yet get even higher. This is a day to rejoice. The taste if victory is sweet.

But the publciity UKIP has got from it, has been absolutely enormous.
I have been a UKIP supporter for about 10 years.
We have never had publicity anything like this before. Everybody is talking about UKIP.
Achilles · 565 weeks ago
I am wondering how it will be received because the public are a bit exhausted with politics.
Everyone is talking about UKIP.
Achilles · 565 weeks ago
A good result will push UKIP back onto the front pages of the mass media.
What happens tonight will affect what happens in the General Election 2015.
Achilles · 565 weeks ago
But lets not think that tonight is just about British Patriots. Patriotism is on the rise all across Europe.
There is a great patriotic surge in France and Denmark and many other EU Countries.
Of course every patriotic party will have different views and policies.
But we are all united in our hatred of the European Union and wanting more indepencence for our countries.
All across Europe patriotism is on the rise. This is a great time to be a British Patriot.
The Purple Peril is on the march. Come and join the peoples army. Let freedom and democracy be our cry.
Go UKIP

Wont you come along and go.
