Southport has been earmarked by Ukip as a seat that “interests them greatly” in the lead-up to the General Election. Ahead of their north west party conference at the Floral Hall on Saturday, the Liveerpool ECHO quizzed the party’s deputy leader, Bootle-born Paul Nuttall, about whether the resort’s Parliamentary seat will be targeted by Ukip, if they think they will find success at the general election in Southport and why they have chosen to come to the Mersey town. Mr Nuttall said that, following their main conference held in the resort in 2009, that was “probably one of the best conferences we have had as a party, ” that it was time to return to Southport. Leader Nigel Farage will also be in attendance on Saturday. The MEP said: “We know Southport is a place where Ukip in the past has come a number of close seconds, but we haven’t been able to get over the line in terms of council elections yet, but we know equally Southport is a place where Ukip positions in Southport have support. “We have targets up and down the country, and to look at somewhere like Southport – the demographic, how we have done in past elections, the split in the parties, I think Southport is a seat that interests us greatly.” Mr Nuttall said he would be “amazed” if they didn’t make gains in Southport at the vote in May or possibly even dramat-ically reduce the Liberal Democrat majority. He said: “We are getting a massive amount of support across the country, equally if you look at the opinion polls and where we are doing well, this is in seaside resorts, more so than anywhere else.” Mr Nuttall said that support is growing for the right-wing party because people feel disengaged with politics, and “look at those representing them in Westminster and think they don’t sound or act like us”. He said: “People find out what we stand for and they like what they hear. That is why we are polling at over 20% according to some opinion poll companies.”
