UKIP

A gigantic amount, not just to be measured in money. We could be paying for UKIP's idiocy for a generation.

I don't think this can be quantified in any way. There has been a number of attempts to quantify the likely impact of Brexit, and even those seem to vary tremendously. (Not least because nobody seems to know yet what form Brexit will take.) To then try to quantify the role of Ukip in causing the whole mess (as opposed to the eurosceptic Tories) - no idea how you would do that.

Nimh I wonder if you'd explain diff 'tween UKIP and Brexit
Thanks indeed

I can do that. UKIP stands for United Kingdom Independence Party. It is a British political party. "Brexit" is what the media call the British exit from the European Union.

Aha! thank you Con! I'll reread the whole affair

UKIP was the party that pushed for years for the UK to withdraw from the European Union.

Aha! thanks Blick

And mental stuff like repealing the ban on handguns. One good thing about Brexit is that they'll lose all their MEPs. They only have one Westminster MP and he's a Tory defector representing a bunch of geriatrics.
