Yes, UKIP. You're not in the wrong bit of Mumsnet.
I just noticed that all references to UKIP in yesterday's Guardian have it as "Ukip". This means that this abbreviation has already (at least in the Guardian) achieved de facto acronym status, like "laser" and "scuba". I'm not saying this is anything new, but I've only just noticed it.
This is serious. Winning 24 seats in the MEP election is one thing, but getting the Guardian to turn you from four capital letters to a word is a whole other matter...
