United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) leader Nigel Farage says he would help the Conservatives form a majority after next year’s general election if current prime minister David Cameron’s party agrees to fast-track a referendum on membership in the European Union, writes Daily Mirror. As the tabloid notes —
Cameron has already promised a referendum on Europe in 2017 should the Tories win the next election. But Mr Farage said this would be brought forward if UKIP pick up enough seats to hold the balance of power in a hung Parliament.
The tabloid recalls that Farage previously “claimed he would never do a deal with the Conservatives”, but changed his tone after his Eurosceptic party entered Parliament with a by-election victory on 9 October. The daily also cites a poll showing “one in four voters now say they back the anti-Europe party,” which “could win anything between 12 and 128 seats” in the 650-seat Parliament.
