Original Note:
The accusation of bias is misleading. In 2014, UKIP had a 17% vote share in the local elections, held on the same day as the European elections, which they topped with a 27% share. Conservatives were rumoured to be defecting. The Green party is currently polling at 5-7%. https://www.statista.com/statistics/985764/voting-intention-in-the-uk/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_European_Parliament_election_in_the_United_Kingdom https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_United_Kingdom_local_elections
