Surely support for minor parties dependent on them having candidates in every seat which they do not. Especially the BNP, which only have a couple of hundred usually if memory serves.

I think this is simply part of strategic planning on the part of the Conservatives. Just like the “challenging times” mantra of the party as a whole, this is taking a hit now, not a bigger one later – and 2% or so doesn’t seem too bad for them on that front. In my opinion, it’s harder to measure the damage the issue’s done to Labour, and that’s why it might appear that the Conservative’s are the ones most in the firing line.

Open thread now, suggest you go there.

I am not surprised Labour’s polling is not lower. Must bear in mind that Labour’s open door immigration policy has imported hundreds of thousands of voters who will look to labour. Add the public sector client base and there is a floor under the Labour vote.
