Tim CONGDON at the UKIP: Peterborough Hustings

UKIP: Peterborough Hustings


Ask yourself, which one of these men would YOU really vote for?

Three Midgets? A pet Poodle? Two drunks? Or a Gentleman?

East Midlands/Eastern Region Hustings meeting, Best Western Hotel, Orton Hall Hotel, The Village, Orton Longueville, Peterborough, PE2 7AM.

100 people attended the event which is quite poor considering that it was a joint event.

Derek Clark was conspicuous by his absence. He wasn't missed. He was probably worried that someone would ask him about that pesky OLAF investigation. See: LINK

Or was he just worried that someone would mention the time he betrayed UKIP by signing a declaration espousing the principle of "subsidiarity". Prior to this UKIP has always been in favour of total withdrawal from the EU. By accepting the principle of subsidiarity UKIP was now accepting the authority of the union to take decisions which are not devolved to national or regional government.

At the same time Clark also signed up to the principle of "reforming" the Common Agricultural Policy, something which UKIP had previously refused to recognise at all.

Don Ransome - his highly paid RO - was observed desperately looking for people to talk to. Poor man!

Congdon was very good. He is now really getting into his stride. He answered questions with clarity and commonsense.

Farage was his usual arrogant self. And Bannerman was just as slimy as ever.

However, the problem with the hustings is that questions cannot be asked from the floor. Questions for this hustings had to be submitted to Peter Reeve. And you can guess what happened to any awkward questions about the widespread corruption that has flourished under Farage's leadership. We know that several UKIPPERS wanted to ask Farage and Bannerman about the lack of financial transparency within UKIP. But they never got the chance.

It is the lack of financial probity within UKIP that a member of the Junius Team heard being discussed around the various groups of people who assembled before and after the formal proceedings.

Only by voting for Tim can we assure a new era of openness and honesty in the party.

Tim CONGDON Backs THE PETITION for an EU REFERENDUM

Tim CONGDON Backs THE PETITION for an EU REFERENDUM

20,000 - 30,000 copies of this magazine will be mailed out this week to activists across Britain, from the offices of Nikki Sinclaire MEP. 

The distribution had to be brought forward somewhat as this week Nikki Sinclaire is on secondment to The RAF on an Air Sea Rescue Course in Cornwall.

Once again she puts Farage & his fan club to shame. 

This year alone Sinclaire has done more practiaclly for the EUroRealist cause than Farage has done with all his squabbling MEPs and salaried praise singers since they were elected in June last year!

And don't forget to sign the petition: CLICK HERE

From the magazine:



Why we need a Referendum by Tim Congdon


Clear majorities of the British people want their country to leave the European Union.

A recent YouGov poll found that 47 per cent wanted the UK out of the EU, compared with 33 per cent who preferred to stay in. Bizarrely, the latest Eurobarometer of public attitudes (financed by the European Commission) had earlier demonstrated a similar result. It showed that 33 per cent of its UK respondents regarded the EU as “a bad thing”, while 29 per cent viewed it as a “a good thing”.

The current widespread opposition to the EU is hardly surprising, as EU interventions in our national life are now disrupting long established traditions, undermining revered institutions and damaging livelihoods. The Commission, the Council of Ministers and their secretariats have used the passage of the Lisbon Treaty last year as the pretext for further encroachments on the EU member states, including the UK.

The last few months have seen a media furore over the effects of the Working Time Directive on the efficiency of British medicine and the National Health Service.

For many decades junior doctors have acquired experience – the experience which is essential if they are to be real doctors and not parrots of the textbooks – by working very long hours in real-world, often life-or-death clinical settings. Now, because of the Working Time Directive, they are prevented by law from this practice.

With lives being put in jeopardy by an EU directive, the puzzle is not that almost half of British people want to leave the EU, but why a third still believe in staying in. More and more people are angry and resentful about how EU decisions are affecting them in their daily lives.

There is a growing discrepancy between popular hostility to the EU and the willingness of successive British governments to hand over so-called “competences” to EU control.

This discrepancy is dangerous. When people believe that politicians are out-of-touch and untrustworthy, and ignore what they want, the risk of civil disobedience increases. In a modern democracy politicians must respect the wishes of citizens and voters. The case for a referendum on the UK’s continued membership of the EU is now overwhelming.

The 2009 Lisbon Treaty was undoubtedly a radical change in the constitutional arrangements of every EU member state, including the UK. All three of the main parties gave clear pledges in their manifestos at the 2005 general election to hold a referendum in the event of another big European constitutional upheaval.
Yet all three of them then judged that the Lisbon Treaty was not important enough to justify the holding of a referendum.

This is scandalous, an orchestrated insult to the intelligence of the British electorate. Britain must have a referendum on its membership of the European Union. That referendum needs to be held as soon as possible, to stop more damage being done to our traditions, our institutions and our way of life.

A - Tim CONGDON BACKS THE PETITION & FEATURES FRONT PAGE!

A - Tim CONGDON BACKS THE PETITION & FEATURES FRONT PAGE!
Hi,
Tim Congdon has unequivocally endorsed THE PETITION for a EU-Referendum and features on the front page of a free distribution magazine being mailed out to between 20 & 30,000 activists, supporters and backers across Britain from the offices of Nikki Sinclaire MEP - this will do a great deal to firmly put UKIP on the map as a democratic party that can be trusted to endorse Patriotic issues not just self interest and navel gazing for the profit of the few.

Aspects of UKIP that Tim Congdon will do all he can to progress, moving away from the endemic corruption here to fore.
Britain is a cross party issue NOT a Dog In A Manger self enrichment scheme.

UKIP should be for and about Patriotism not introspective selfish Nationalism and personal profit for the few.
