How to stop the defections?

Presumably due to the (entirely honourable) new convention that defecting MPs need to stand for re-election we are only seeing defections where UKIP is confident of re-election.

That indicates that there may well be a series of defections from February 2015 onwards, when the idea of re-standing is redundant.

How to stop the defections?

Devolve power over policy-making to the members (real power, not just a "consultative role").
