Tory voters beware...

Hat tip to Bermondseymum and to Dulwichmum and to Aims who pointed it out




Enjoy

A UKIP election broadcast that everyone should listen to

I'll make no secret of it.  I don't like the EU because it dictates what we can or cannot do yet we have to prop it up to the tune of 45 million pounds a day.

Here is the broadcast ( Iplayer)

They also ordered us to shut several Post offices and the politicians at Westminster had to do it, they had no choice in the matter.  Is that fair?  Is that really fair?  I don't think so.

We who have to live here should be able to make the choices not the EU.

As an Independent I  have already pledged for a referendum on our continuing membership of the EU.  See the Albion Alliance link to the right hand side of the blog.

Gordon has thrown the election in Oldham

Also seen on facebook,  Norad are now tracking an object over the English Channel, it has been confirmed that it is a Prime ministerial Nokia.....

Goodbye Labour


The fact is that the national debt, is a function of the fact that we send the EU  45 million pounds every day.

And we get nothing back from it.

Edit :  Apparently it was Rochdale...  But in any case a Lancashire town....

Standing as an Independent Candidate

Standing as an independent candidate is a hard job. Let no one tell you otherwise. 
 I am seeking office not to extract more of your hard earned money, or to control more of your lives, but because I believe liberty is the key ingredient to greater prosperity and happiness.
I have seen liberties stripped away over the last two decades and I want to reverse that in Hornsey and Wood Green.
  I decided to stand in Hornsey and Wood Green because I have lived here for the last nine years and have seen council tax going up and up and no real benefit from it going further up.
There are many cultures that live , work and make Wood Green and Hornsey the vibrant place that I live in.


The main three parties are drawn from one sector of Hornsey, and whilst that is fine, it leaves the ordinary person, somewhat removed from government.  After all you the elector vote the person in you feel that will do the most for you and who will work for you.  The main parties however have their rules and their party whip.  This makes your representation fail because toeing the party line, especially in the Labour or the Conservative party is the norm.  In  the Liberal Democrats it is slightly laxer but it is still there.
An independent candidate  reflecting the mix of cultures that are in the borough is more responsible to the electors who vote him/her in.  All electors in the borough have exactly the same rights and responsibilities and the same right to contact me if elected to ask me to get things done.
You must vote, its your right as a member of the electorate. Not using your vote is like leaving your oven on day and night.  It gets wasted that way.


You make the choice. I've done this primarily because I feel you should be the change you want to see in the world. So I've taken a step to making things better

That Eu Referendum Vote

https://sites.google.com/site/votepetershields/peter-s-homepage/voting


From another independent's site

I have to agree with all the sentiments expressed in that post.

The EU doesnt want public participation which is why I am calling for a referendum on its continued interference in British affairs.

Spot the Difference

Click the pic to enlarge it.
With the nod of the Hat to ManWiddicombe

Why on earth would you vote for these parties?  Vote Independent. Send a clear message to the old political parties that you are not prepared to put up with their hypocrisy anymore

Beware the Small Print

Copied shamelessly in its entirety but with a different title from Ian PJ on Politics



While walking down the street one day a “Member of Parliament” is tragically hit by a truck and dies.
His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the  entrance.
‘Welcome to heaven,’ says St. Peter.. ‘Before you settle in,  it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you see, so we’re not sure what to do with you.’
‘No problem, just let me in,’ says the man.
‘Well, I’d like to, but I  have orders from higher up. What we’ll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you can choose where to spend eternity.’
‘Really, I’ve made up my mind. I want to be in heaven,’  says the MP.
‘I’m sorry, but we have our rules.’
And with  that, St. Peter  escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down  to hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a green  golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front of it  are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with  him.
Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had  while getting rich at the expense of the people.
They play a  friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster, caviar and  champagne.
Also present is the devil, who really is a very friendly & nice guy who has a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are having such a good time that before he realizes it, it is time to go.
Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises….
The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens on heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him.
‘Now it’s time  to visit heaven.’
So, 24 hours pass with the MP joining a group  of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing.  They have a good time and, before he realizes it, the 24 hours have gone by  and St. Peter returns.
‘Well, then, you’ve spent a day in hell and  another in heaven. Now choose your eternity.’
The MP reflects for a minute, then he answers: ‘Well, I would never have said it  before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but  I think I would be better off  in hell.’
So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down,  down, down to hell.
Now the doors of  the elevator open and he’s in the middle of a barren land covered with  waste and garbage.
He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags as more trash falls from above.
The devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his  shoulder. ‘I don’t understand,’ stammers the MP. ‘Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar, drank champagne, and danced and had a great time.. Now there’s just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable.
What happened?’
The devil looks at him, smiles and says, ‘Yesterday we were campaigning… …
Today you voted.’
MORAL: Never take at face value what politicians tell you, always look a little closer at the small print in their manifesto, and if possible get them to make personal pledges

An example is the Albion Alliance pledge
