Thanks Dave

Monday's sham EU referendum debate was a disaster for democracy but it was a bonus for UKIP.

Eighty six people applied for membership of UKIP on Monday night/Tuesday morning, joining the 35 who signed up on Sunday night/Monday morning.

Compared to the LibLabCon parties I'm sure 120 members in 48 hours isn't exactly record-setting but for a party the size of UKIP it's pretty damn good and those 120 are only those who signed up through head office, not through the branches.
