UKIP were never anywhere near threatening to take power. They were threatening to take enough votes away from the tories that Labour might take power. The Tories put the interests of the Tory party above those of the country.


No, they were nowhere near taking power, and they were made inconsequential by the 'major' parties promising a referendum.
Now we know that neither of the parties were actually prepared to carry through Brexit if the country voted to leave, there are 17 million who might feel that the only way that a true Brexit would be achieved is by voting for the only party already committed to providing it.
