I wouldn't quite say unbelievable, but the results in the EU election are perhaps even more pronounced than most commentators expected.
I don't see this as a UKIP endorsement here in the UK - I actually see it more as a "none of the above" vote.
Only 56% of the vote has gone for UK wide mainstream parties. The Greens are up at 8% so it's not just UKIP that have attracted support.

I'm not sure the 3 big parties get it. They are all discredited. Their people are all talking about learning lessons, listening.... but that's just the same old, same old...

They seem to think that this cannot be replicated come a general election, but I'm not so sure. I think the public has seen what power it can wield and may well use it in 12 months time.
It could be interesting.

Meanwhile, across Europe the extremes on both sides seem to have done well. Is it the end for the EU as we know it?
