jim; //So I guess that leaves Ukip//
I think and hope many more will think that. The leader in the Spectator (19th March) on the subject of D.Trump ends saying, "The lesson for Republicans, - as well as all centrist parties - is that good communicators with clear ideas can win elections, but party machine candidates running on little more than their own biography flounder. Trump has ended up running away with the Republican nomination not because he is the most credible candidate but because he is the one who seems to recognise that the people are the boss".
Across the world people's priorities are changing and governments are failing to change with them, this is why Merkel's CDU lost so many votes to the new Alternative for Deutschland party, why Le pen is increasing her vote in France, the Danish people's Party and Farage and UKIP in the UK.
Ordinary folk are listening to what these people are actually saying - that is if you can sort it out among the left wing press' biased reporting, which dismisses them with terms like "racists" and "far right", and they wish to protest against an unlistening, remote elite.
