"The party's tally of councillors has reached a psychological barrier of 100 - but a deeper look at the nationwide results reveals that there can be a world of difference between a point of importance for a small party and a genuine gathering of electoral steam.

In fact, those councillors represent less than 1% of all those elected in the UK and gains on the night, beyond the headline-grabbing result in London, were short of some expectations. "

yes, we beeners are sooo mighty, with our less than 1% of council seats in the uk.

such political power!

it really is a groundwell of popular support, isn't it? i mean, this history books will write about it like this, i think:

"in an era of economic and social turmoil, where media driven anti-immigration feeling was at its peak, one party emerged... at it's peak, it had a massive mandate, collecting nearly 1% of the UK's local government seats. "

har har!
yea, congrats on that. i guess the champale and the wine in a box will be flowing freely at beener hq for weeks!
