Shock as fringe, right-wing “Tory” party comes 3rd in Eastleigh by-election

(satire – or is it?)

There was shock across the political establishment after an extremist, right-wing, breakaway political grouping known as the ‘United Kingdom Conservative Party’ came third after UKIP and the Liberal Democrats in the Eastleigh by-election.

Members of the obscure party – who are often referred to disparagingly as ‘Tories’ and by mainstream politicians as ’fruitcakes, loonies and closet racists’ - were celebrating after they split the UKIP vote and came a close third.

The fringe party’s success – described by pundits as an extremist offshoot of UKIP – comes after its controversial candidate Maria Hutchings suddenly mysteriously disappeared from the by-election campaign and turned up for sale at a US auction site in Miami with an estimate of between $220 – $352.
