Ukip vote shows why Cameron must pull UK out of Europe

From: Nick Yates, Calderdale Ukip Group, Laverock Lane, Brighouse.

TRADING arrangements with Europe are a good thing, but not this monster we have allowed to evolve.

The EU’s accounts cannot be audited and it is corrupt from top to bottom. Resources are squandered. The officials are aggressive tax avoiders; the management resembles the mafia rather than any recognisable government.

The EU will collapse. It is based on an economic concept that cannot work. A nation cannot function without controlling its currency by devaluing, revaluing or responding to market forces. The longer this matter is ignored the more catastrophic the collapse will be.

We must address the problem now and make provisions for an orderly withdrawal for members who wish to leave. Likely initial candidates will be Greece, Spain, Italy, Portugal and hopefully ourselves.

Under increasing oppression we feel impotent. Commissioners in Brussels dictate 75 per cent of all our laws; none can be repealed by Parliament. We cannot vote for those who make the laws – we cannot remove them.

David Cameron dismisses the result of the Eastleigh by-election as a “mid-term protest vote”. It certainly is a protest vote and a well founded one.

The British public are concerned about unrestricted mass immigration which has already pushed down wages and restricted work opportunities. A further tide of Romanians and Bulgarians will be sanctioned shortly. Nobody can predict the numbers. The Home Office refuse to make a prediction.

Enough is enough; it is time to say no.

From: David W Wright, Uppleby, Easingwold.

THE Eastleigh by-election result has shown clearly the electorates’s opinion of David Cameron and the current Conservative Party which is floundering under his inadequate leadership and obsession with keeping on good terms with the Lib Dems.

It is obvious that both parties are clinging on to power through the fragile relationship, but more seriously the country is suffering from the lack of forthright and radical policies while Clegg and Cameron peddle their “wet” agendas.

Meanwhile, there is hope on the horizon through the emergence of Ukip and the obvious disillusionment of former Conservative – and even Labour supporters – who view the current political scene with frustration and disgust whilst the coalition squanders the UK’s chances of economic recovery and future life outside of Brussels and the EU.

I WAS very pleased to see that Ukip did so well at the recent Eastleigh by-election. I support their broad views on a referendum on EU membership and excessive immigration as 
well as a more acceptable 
policy on UK energy supplies 
and prices.

As a former Lib Dem founder member, I am still at a loss to understand why the present excessive financial squeeze policies still gather Lib Dem support at government level.

From: Dick Lindley, Birkwood Farm, Altofts, Normanton.

THE outstanding electoral gains made by Ukip in the Eastleigh by-election will hopefully cause David Cameron and the policy-makers in the Conservative Party to realise that the vast majority of British voters want an urgent end to unlimited immigration into the UK and an independent UK which is no longer ruled by the EU bureaucrats in Brussels and Strasbourg.

From: Terry Duncan, Greame Road, Bridlington.

WOULD it not be a very good idea for the hierarchy of the Conservative Party if they tell their three top people, ie Cameron, Osborne and Hague, to start listening to the country instead of covering their eyes, ears and mouths?
