Results of labour party PC correct policies...

Labour has always had one clear policy over the last 30 years, raise any kind of issue concerning minorities, race, religion (unless its Christian bashing), immigration or Europe and you're a racist.

This has drove many labour party supporters away because we want an honest discussion on the issue. In recent years thing have got so bad even labour activists are too frightened to speak up about FGM, honour kills, forced marriages, gender specific abortions (PC speak for aborting female foetuses) in case they upset the PC brigade.

Even feminist campaigners in the Labour party won't discuss the subjects, whilst it's actually NW UKIP representatives like Shneur Odze that are brave enough to stand up and voice their concerns about these predominantly female issues.

The farce of the EU travelling circus

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/10565686/The-farce-of-the-EU-travelling-circus.html

The full cost of the travelling circus that sees MEPs decamp once a month from Brussels to Strasbourg can be disclosed. And even though MEPs have voted to scrap a second parliament, the French government has the power to block any such move.

UKIP scores two stunning Council by-election wins

We can do this on Wigan Council...

UKIP demonstrated the party’s increasing strength at grassroots level last night with two stunning by-election wins in Haverhill, winning a majority of the vote in both elections. The party took both a St Edmundsbury Borough Council seat with 54% of the vote and a Haverhill Town Council seat with 64% of the votes cast.

The party is lauding the results as a clear signal that their popularity at local level will help to pave the way for good results in the 2015 General Election, as well as in the European Elections in May.

Tony Brown, who has already been elected as a UKIP Councillor on Suffolk County Council, received 529 votes in the Haverhill East Ward last night. This was more than the Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrat candidates put together.

UKIP's Paul Firman meanwhile received 630 votes, a massive 64% of the vote, defeating the Labour and Liberal Democrat candidates.

UKIP Leader Nigel Farage said: "These fantastic UKIP gains highlight just how popular the party is becoming at a local level. It is a sign of UKIP's growth that voters are now turning to UKIP not just on national issues, but at local Council level as well. It’s this sort of strength at local level that is so vital for a strong performance in the 2015 general election."

Both of these wins demonstrate UKIP's increasing popularity not only on issues such as membership of the EU and immigration but with policies across the board, with voters now showing that by voting UKIP they will end up with UKIP representation on Councils.
