resigns from the Conservatives to join UKIP... top man.
his speech in full, well worth a watch... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-28967790
Douglas Carswell
I have a great interest in politics, so the betting markets get me perversely excited!! 
Clacton by-election should create good liquidity - there's £9k already and there's not even a date
UKIP trading very low at present. I know they recently had a 44 point lead at the polls, but 1.14 is short for a party that's never won a parliamentary seat

Clacton should be a cake walk for UKIP.
the betting on the next general election most seats market is interesting with "Any Other" trading about 8 times shorter than the Lib Dems!
if Carswell wins and a few others follow him then UKIP could conceivably get on a real roll. remember Ross Perot in the US who got the main parties very worried at one point?
