In the case of the Tories panic is spreading

The British government party is in a panic. The Conservatives fear a "disaster" in the European elections in may. On both wings the allegiance will break away you now. Many party activists, but also prominent Tories, such as the Ex-foreign Minister, Boris Johnson does not want to participate, therefore, in the election campaign in the first place.

In polls for the European elections, the Conservatives are only at 16 per cent, while the two right-wing populist Anti-EU parties reported strong encouragement. Pro-European Tories are meanwhile, into the camp of the new movement Change the UK that yesterday for the first time admitted as a party.

Some of the forecasts assume that the Tories could lose over half of their 18 seats in the European Parliament. 73 seats, a total of the United Kingdom. The reason for the feared break-in is that it can take millions of Conservative party and head of government Theresa May evil that you have is "impossible" exit agreement with the EU and now the outlet for another half a year delayed.

May, who is currently in the mountains of Wales by the early Easter holiday, is, of course, always been aware that participation in the Europe would trigger elections three years after the Brexit Referendum, when many voters outrage. She promised her party, about the participation in the elections twenty-four hours before the UK election day – the 23. May cancel if she gets up then, you repeatedly rejected the exit agreement with the EU through the Parliament.

conversations with Labour

it comes before the date of adoption of the Treaty, believe the least of all Tories. For additional outrage in the conservative ranks Mays has made recent negotiations with the Labour Party. In the last few days, the demands have become louder that she had to cancel these negotiations quickly. Before Easter is expected to be at these meetings, no breakthrough. You are already moved back.

Under such circumstances, Tory Brexiteers see no sense in participating in the European elections. A spokesman for the party, right, the MP Mark Francois, said: "Why should we spend £ 100 million of taxpayers' money, to elect 73 members to the European Parliament, which should sit just five months?"

Nigel Farage on the rise

Francois's colleague Ben Bradley, from the Brexit, the stronghold of Mansfield in Central England, has not reported how many other Tories at the party headquarters, its branch will turn on the options "no money": "The anger among many party members, activists and Branches is not to be missed."

"Our party should not jump simply in the European elections," says the former party leader Iain Duncan Smith. "The rise of the two-Brexit-would list parties, would be fatal for us." The concern Duncan Smith is of the old independence party (Ukip), but also of the newly founded Brexit-party, on top of which it has been now the former Ukip leader Nigel Farage.

Farage was returned a few days ago on the political stage in England, his Brexit-present party. He will teach the Westminster-members of "the Fear", since they had the Brexit-decision 2016 "deliberately betrayed", he promised. Farage confirmed that the new party had fin, within ten days of almost a Million pounds (around 1.3 million Swiss francs) in donations. Of Ukip, his former party, he separated himself, because this is moved far to the right: it has today, strongly anti-Islamic moves and stands with the racists in the bunch.

The Tories could lose over half their seats in the European Parliament.

the European elections of 2014 was Ukip under Farage with 27 percent of the vote as the strongest party. The two "hard" Brexit-parties to be said at the moment, 12 to 13 percent of the votes.

threaten But also on the other wing, in your Proeuropäern of the Conservative and bitter losses. Several passionate Brexit opponents from the two major parties have recently been to the "group of the Independent" together, which now operates under the name Change UK.

Nationalist influence

This decidedly Pro-European collective movement of the middle class has now joined the former conservative health Minister Stephen Dorrell. Dorrell believes that his former party "event, more and more the influence of a German-nationalist orientation" to the victim. Except for the Change in the UK party to offer themselves to the voters as an Anti-Brexit-parties, the liberal Democrats, the Green party and the small party Renewal. In Scotland, the Scottish national party (SNP) against exiting the EU. You elections will be in Europe – just like the two right-wing parties – around a quarter of all votes prophesied.

With even more encouragement, you can count on, if Jeremy Corbyns Labour Party should refuse a new Brexit Referendum into the choice program. That Labour should commit itself to such a second referendum, Richard Corbett, labour's Leader in Strasbourg, and the entire local group is required. Policy-Professor Rob Ford from the University of Manchester has stated that it was "quite likely that this choice is a kind of sample-Referendum".
