Why I Am Standing for UKIP
I joined UKIP because I needed an outlet for my boiling anger at the travesty of democracy foisted on us by the Westminster Consensus. The Conservative party has conserved nothing of Britain in the last 60 years. The Labour party’s policies have been predatory on those of us who live on a wage or salary. The Liberal Democrats are at least honest about the intentions of the Westminster Consensus; they are all international collectivists, who would like to see Britain run through global treaties that will give each of us a carbon allowance (and by logical extension a food allowance, a water allowance, an electricity allowance, etc.). UKIP will not acquiesce to the end of our national independence, but will put Britons’ interests first.
I am standing as UKIP’s Beckenham PPC because I want to do more than fulminate in private about the path Britain is on. I am making the statement that I will not give the Westminster Consensus one more last chance after its contemptible volte face on a Lisbon Treaty referendum. A UKIP wedge in Westminster will disrupt the Consensus and bring the antiseptic of sunlight to its practices. Supporting the banking system for the next 20 years is going to cost a fortune and I will endeavour to prevent vested interests from placing the total burden on income tax payers, which has already been decided by the Consensus. Leaving the EU will immediately save the UK £45 million per day in direct contributions, plus additional savings obtained by dismantling the state’s overweening regulation and enforcement infrastructure. Private investment is the most efficient means of growing our way out of the debt trap we are in. Vote UKIP for small government and government that knows its place.
