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.

Yes. Bloody Europeans. Next thing you know they'll be trying ban our Traditional English trans-fat-and-trotter pies.

Actually I dont think you are Lord Pearson, but I am astounded that someone would vote for a particular party based on how that party would deal with two issues and not know anything else about their policies.

"Thanks, but I must go to bed"

Is nurse calling you?

I vote UKIP in European elections, as there the only ones with the back bone to stand up for the best interests of the UK, as opposed to the Labour contingent all of whom have trousers with a quick release catch in case the EU tells them to bend over.

No point in voting UKIP in national elections, the Monster Raving Looney PArty got more votes last time.

Lilyladles · 20/04/2010 22:30

I'm a UKIP voter.

I don't want to live under the rule of EU institutions barely on nodding terms with democracy, that make AT LEAST 72% of our laws.

Laws that no British government, whoever forms it, can overturn. Do the words qualified majority voting mean anything on MN?

I don't want a European Public Proscecutor, or a European Arrest Warrant, or slavish devotion to a climate change agenda costing £18 billion a year.

Or a high tax/big state government.

Or mass immigration, and the mass house building programme that goes with it.

I don't want billions of pounds of British tax payers money sent to the corrupt EU, especially not when we are so deeply in debt.

And for that I'm prepared to put up with Lord Pearson's unsophisticated, late to politics approach, especially if it leaves Farage to concentrate on ousting the hypocrite Bercow. Pearson has a point, the mainstream media does not like to discuss more serious issues if it means their beloved EU takes criticism.

And please, anyone who calls me a racist or a xenophobe because I support UKIP show their their ignorance.

ShadeofViolet · 20/04/2010 22:33

Another UKIP supporter with no other posting history!

I wonder f its a coincidence that you arrive after Crystal has gone.

Different name, same shit!

Lilyladles · 20/04/2010 22:37

Why is it the same shit? Do you have a coherent argument, or are you like all the rest who are lost once someone brings some facts into the discussion?

Coolfonz · 20/04/2010 22:38

"anyone who calls me a racist or a xenophobe because I support UKIP show their their ignorance."

x 100

Lilyladles · 20/04/2010 22:39

Point proven.

daftpunk · 20/04/2010 22:40

Shadeofviolet; Er....who the hell are you to criticize a persons right to vote for UKIP...

lincstash · 20/04/2010 22:40

I happen to agree with Lilyladles in principle.....

Doesnt it bother you, ShadeofViolet, that billions of our tax pounds have been stolen and embezzled by the EU? There accounts are so fake and shambolic the auditors have refused to sign them off for the last 13 years. Billions and Billions of £ stolen from us. Or are you just another labour voter for whom corruption, thievery and malfeasance in public office is acceptable as long as its done by your party ?

ShadeofViolet · 20/04/2010 22:41

Facts? I dont see any of those, I just see the same shite that you all keep trotting out.

However maybe you can answer my quiestions about UKIP's policies on the Economy and Health?

Or are you just a one-trick party?

ShadeofViolet · 20/04/2010 22:42

I have not critisized anyones right to vote for UKIP, I asked questions that no-one seems to be able to answer.

lincstash · 20/04/2010 22:44

FACT:

The Official Auditors have refused to sign off the EU accounts for the last 13 years because theres so much money missing. Billion unaccounted for and gone.

news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7092102.stm

so, i repeat, are you just another labour voter for whom corruption, thievery and malfeasance in public office is acceptable as long as its done by your party ?

Your link is from over two years ago!

lincstash · 20/04/2010 22:49

Yes, that makes it worse, because its now 15 years on the trot they refused to sign them.

im impressed by your concerted efforts to avoid answering the question, so ill repeat it again:

are you just another labour voter for whom corruption, thievery and malfeasance in public office is acceptable as long as its done by your party ?

ShadeofViolet · 20/04/2010 22:50

Actually I am not

ZephirineDrouhin · 20/04/2010 22:53

I love posts that start

FACT:

ShadeofViolet · 20/04/2010 22:53

ow can you answer my question (and those of others) on the UKIP policies for health, defence or the Economy?

lincstash · 20/04/2010 22:54

Not what?

a) avoiding the question
b) a labour voter

lincstash · 20/04/2010 22:55

Ask the OP, im not responsible for his/her position.

BTW.........

I made the previous post a multiple answer question in case you had the misfortune to be educated by the labour government.

ShadeofViolet · 20/04/2010 22:55

Either!
