Eric, it is no good having the balance of power if you have not a clue about what you are doing.
You have to have a map of the nail( a plan of attack) you cannot lead if you do not know where you are going...still less, if you don't know how to get there.

Ideals need actions to make them work.

If I am going to vote, I need to know what the man I am voting for stands for.
I need to know what plans are being made for the country...and where the little man figures in these plans.

there is a lot of work needed to foster interest in politics, to mend bridges(political ones)......and I cannot see that there is enough time between now and the next election to do all that needs to be done.
Ukip talk about taking us out of Europe, but unless they are elected in droves they will be in no position to have any impact on the issue.

As for us not being Europeans...that is spot on!
