Anti-euro UKIP scents Conservative blood
"The fact that people vote for UKIP in these elections needs to be taken seriously and it does obviously reflect a relatively widespread hostility to Brussels and all its works," said Philip Whyte, at the CER, a think-tank which generally supports the European Union's broad goals. "It's a part of a wider European trend, the fact that the economy across Europe is so weak, that also helps a relatively inward looking agenda, which is what UKIP represents."
