UKIP want us out of the EU, I love Europe can't stand the EU.We pay 40 million a day to them
1)72% of our laws are now made in Brussells, from fuel taxes, farming,fishing and immigration.
2)We pay £40 million a day to be in the EU.
3)The Two richest countries in Europe-Norway and Switzerland are not even in the EU.
4)Under labour we now have 3.5 million extra people living in this country. We need proper border controls. Nick Cleggs policy is to count people in and out of the country, and force them to work in 'regions' totally unworkable. UKIP would keep our proud tradition of helping genuine asylum seekers.
5)UKIP does not appear to be anti-christian as do the other parties. The labour parties spin doctor Alistair Campbell said they "don't do God!" I do.
6)UKIP believes in holding referendums for the electorate on key local and international issues. I like this.
7)Crime is now out of contol, UKIP would build more prisons. Last but not least, Lord Pearson (leader) is 'posh' and does not try to hide it.

thing is becauseimworthit, no one whose agenda is fear driven will accept that violent crime has been falling for some time.

but i only have to think back to the skinhead NF flick knife 70s to know that it's true!

Coolfonz · 22/04/2010 15:22

Apologies for the 3pc error.

crystal123 · 22/04/2010 15:30

Coolfonz. Surely you're too intellectual for this "tit" business.

OP posts:
sungirltan · 22/04/2010 15:57

so what you are saying is, crystal - is that you can't think of any instances of secular prejudice against english cultural practices?

whats with this why are you here? its irrelevant, i'm a british citizen - which can't be revoked because i am a bit embarrassed by my country's actions and plenty of the population!

good luck with your mn mole campaign - you're fooling no one here!

crystal123 · 22/04/2010 16:26

SUNGIRLTAN. Thankyou for the kind words, must go, got other work to do.

crystal - why do we have to be a christian country?"

Because the State religion, as instigated by Henry VIII is the Church of England. The Queens is head of the state religion, and Anglican Bishops form part of the House of Lords - the House of Commons even starts and ends with Anglican Prayers. You even get 8 bank holidays because of the state religion.

The three pillars of state that form the bedrock foundations of this nation are State, Church and Monarchy. All three are deeply intertwined and any attempt to disestablish the Church from the rest would destroy our democracy, wreck the Monarchy and remove the mutual checks all three perform on each other.

COOLFONZ. I did'nt think anachists/swampys worked! Now don't alienate yourself from your comrades, make sure they don't see your post.

crystal123 · 22/04/2010 16:37

Linctash. Well said.

I am a great believer in the separation of church and state.

daftpunk · 22/04/2010 16:41

crystal123;

I know you're just being sensible, but UKIP and the BNP are seen as similar parties on MN...and anyone who supports them are racist loonies.
