Winner of the Political Book of the Year Award 2015 The UK Independence Party (UKIP) is the most significant new party in British politics for a generation. In recent years UKIP and their charismatic leader Nigel Farage have captivated British politics, media and voters. Yet both the party and the roots of its support remain poorly understood. Where has this political revolt come from? Who is supporting them, and why? How are UKIP attempting to win over voters? And how far can their insurgency against the main parties go? Drawing on a wealth of new data – from surveys of UKIP voters to extensive interviews with party insiders – in this book prominent political scientists Robert Ford and Matthew Goodwin put UKIP's revolt under the microscope and show how many conventional wisdoms about the party and the radical right are wrong. Along the way they provide unprecedented insight into this new revolt, and deliver some crucial messages for those with an interest in the state of British politics, the radical right in Europe and political behaviour more generally.

Explaining Support for the Radical Right in Britain

Revolt on the Right

Philip Cowley

Elections aren’t just important – they are revealing. They tell us things about who we are and how we behave. Written by leading political experts, Sex, Lies and Politics reveals what really makes us tick. At once funny, revealing and shocking, it covers everything you need to know about the voters and their quirks, foibles and sexual secrets, including when they lie (often to themselves), how they are swayed by tribal loyalties (even when judging cats and celebrities), and why you should keep quiet about your Brexit vote when moving house... Combining brand-new essays with fully updated pieces from the acclaimed Sex, Lies and the Ballot Box and More Sex, Lies and the Ballot Box, this witty and thought-provoking collection is a guaranteed conversation starter. If you want to discover which party’s voters have the wildest private lives, read on.

The 21st volume in a prestigious series dating back to 1945, it offers something for everyone from Westminster insiders and politics students to the interested general reader.

"Since 2009, the UK Independence Party (UKIP) has become the most successful challenger to the main parties in postwar English politics. Yet with the radical right on the rise, important questions remain unanswered. What trends in modern Britain have made the rise of UKIP possible? How has the party modified its organization, strategy and ideology in the quest to forge ties with voters? Who is voting for the populist radical right in Britain, and why? To what extent, if at all, are UKIP supporters the mirror image of radical right voters in Europe, and where might the party go next? Based on an unprecedented amount of data, from surveys of UKIP voters to extensive interviews with UKIP insiders, Robert Ford and Matthew Goodwin explore the wider trends that gave birth to UKIP, how the party has evolved, and who is shifting behind UKIP at elections. The book provides unprecedented insight into public support for the radical right in Britain, and contains important insights for those who are tasked with responding to the radical right challenge"--

A Blues Bibliography

An all-new novella from the author of Burner and Inner Demons! Time is like a salve...just covers up the wounds and leaves scar tissue behind. Two of Claudia's girls were found dead, rope burns on their wrists and neck. Soiled doves is what they called them-girls from the brothel, Chateau d' Roses. But Claudia recognizes the wounds from her own scarred past. Those women made it quite a distance. Tryin' to escape whoever it was 'at had 'em in ropes. Whoever...whatever, was puttin' them through hell. There are things in the town of Thurmont with appetites on the dark side. They're hungry for more, and Sheriff Stockton is caught up right in the middle of it. The buzz-that angry beehive inside Henry's head-was so very loud. The ice along his spine gave way to heat, hot as a wildfire. Henry Rockwell is the youngest of the family, but his cravings are as dark as the rest. He's kept it secret for as long as he could, but the temptation is too great. Sometimes the only real way to heal is through blood. The town of Thurmont is the crossroads for revenge-from both the living and the dead. One thing's for certain... blood will be spilled. Book 1 of the Welcome To The West series
