Nikki Sinclaire makes it very clear that she was elected to represent 5 Million people whilst the odious Cathy Ashton has never received a vote in her life!

Yes, there’s a growing UKIP threat to the Conservatives. But it’s got less to do with the EU than you may think
The Liberal Democrats’ entry into government has left the party unable to compete, for the first time in modern history, for the protest vote. (See the Barnsley result.)
The collapse of the BNP into a mass of squabbling factions, and its persistent legal and financial troubles, means that it’s a far less effective bidder for both the protest vote and anti-politics vote. (See the Barnsley result again.)
This leaves UKIP as the main contender for both in England. Farage seems to me to be a classic “marmite” politician – the kind one either loves or hates. For bigger parties, this would be a problem. For UKIP, as it attempts to define itself, this aspect of their party’s leadership is probably a net plus. Farage fought a curiously lacklustre general election campaign against John Bercow (before that horrible plane crash). But he’s an experienced campaigner who appreciates that UKIP needs to be more than a single issue party if it’s to win more support. I’m curious to see how he plans to do so, since there are signs that he’s uncomfortable with the stress that Malcolm Pearson put on unambiguous – and inflammatory – anti-Islam campaigning.
So then: UKIP’s well placed to mop up more protest and anti-politics votes. But does it pose a special threat to the Conservative Party and, if so, what should David Cameron’s response be? To answer those questions, it’s obviously important to work out where UKIP’s votes come from in the first place.
One school of thought stresses that UKIP’s “core vote” is made up of anti-politics and protest voters. That’s essentially the suggestion of research carried out by James Bethell.
Another, very closely aligned with it, holds that UKIP’s appeal stretches beyond this core vote to disillusioned Conservative voters – especially at Euro-elections. Robert Ford and Matthew Goodwin have made this case.
A further view, set out by Dennis Kavanagh and Philip Cowley in their “The British general election of 2010”, is that “the party’s baseline vote does come disproportionately from those that vote Conservative”.
The latter note that the increase in the share of the vote in seats that UKIP contested in 2010, but not in 2005, rose by less than the national average of the Conservative vote. Recent Angus Reid data suggests that former Tory voters may now be switching to Farage’s party. Post-Barnsley analysis claims that 29 per cent of UKIP by-election voters previously supported Labour, while only 19 per cent had backed the Conservatives. However, the bulk of the evidence suggests that to date UKIP has tended to draw more from the Tories than Labour. So how should David Cameron respond? The study that’s looked at UKIP voters in most detail appears to be Bethell’s, which found that –
“Surprisingly, perhaps, immigration is a higher priority for UKIP voters even than the issue of Europe, which comes in third. This was reflected in the focus groups we conducted. When asked why they voted UKIP, all of the participants said because UKIP was opposed to immigration. They were interested in the issue of Europe but they did not volunteer this as a key factor in deciding their vote. One of the intriguing things from the focus groups, however, was the feeling that people are not necessarily voting for UKIP on immigration because they understand that free movement of labour across the EU leads to high levels of immigration. Many seem to vote UKIP simply because they think UKIP is opposed to immigration, which is a slightly different motivation. In other words, not everyone makes the intellectual leap that withdrawal from the EU would likely lead to a significant drop in immigration.”
So my view’s as follows –
Making a special pitch for UKIP voters wouldn’t work for many of them. Bethell’s research suggests that some of the “anti-voters” of which UKIP voters are a part will no longer heed the mainstream parties.
However, ignoring UKIP voters is risky too. This is because Bethell’s research also finds that not all UKIP voters are permanently alienated from the mainstream parties. If UKIP’s support continues to grow – as it can reasonably be expected to do – the shortcomings of a modernisation strategy which exclusively pursues better off and liberally inclined voters will become more apparent.
The key issue for UKIP voters is immigration. If the Government lasts its full term, it needs to be able to point to success at the end of it in allieviating pressure on housing, schools, hospitals, transport and public services. Bringing non-EU immigration down to the “tens of thousands” is therefore essential. As for EU immigration, Ministers should be examining the radical ideas that have been floated by Nick Boles.

INDEPENDENT ukip MEP Nikki SINCLAIRE putting on the mask
– the campaign symbol of the victims of Acid Violence
Today is the 100th anniversary of International Women’s day. The Parliament has fallen over themselves to make all the women MEP´s feel special by giving us red roses and small pot plants. But for 30 minutes this afternoon I attended and gave my support to a growing and troubling issue – Acid violence against women.
This atrocious act, is a new phenomenon and is prevalent in Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Uganda and India but can alo be found in Europe too. At a conservative estimate at least 5000 cases a year with 70% of the women being under the age of 25. These attacks are `honour` reprisals for when a young woman has ´dishonoured´ her family even in the most minor way.
In more than 40% of cases acid scaring is carried out by the Women´s partner or former partner. Even parents and siblings are perpetrators. The damage caused by acid is irreversible. Each patient has to undergo between 6 and 30 operations. The injuries are devastating and leave an indelible psychological mark on the victim.
I spoke today with Jacqueline Thibault, President of the foundation ´SURGIR´ today about this. She is calling for, and I support greater understanding of the problem, support for programs such as in Switzerland that pick up the aftermath but most of all acid throwing is a crime and a form of torture and should be considered and punished as such by tne international community.
I was interested to discover from Ms. Thibault that the UK authorities are very progressive in dealing with these matters with police forces retrospectively going through their records to reinvestigate such crimes. She told me there were 12 instances a year in the UK – 12 too many!
Katie Piper and the foundation she has so bravely set up has been an inspiration for us all.
Ian Hugh Myddleton Anderson (born 1953, Hillingdon, Died 02-Feb-2011, Epping) was a leading figure on the Britishfar-right in the 1980s and 1990s. Although continuing his association with The National Democrats with whom Gary Cartwright had a very brief association when he first left The RAF Ian never seemed to realise the folly of his extremism though he did give considerable support to UKIP in later years and aided Pam Barden of S.O.S. (Now sponsored by UKIP).
Ian Anderson’s support for The Skelton Group is also worthy of note and was long term as has been Nigel Farage MEP UKIP & EFD, Tom Wise MEP UKIP & Ford Open Prison and other similar luminaries of UKIP.
I had contacts from Ian Anderson over almost 20 years, though I never shared his extremist views and founded my views on a revulsion of The EUropean Union scam and Patriotism, I found him to be willing to provide information where he could and he was always polite, though somewhat primly, in his dealings with me.
I now know that the last time I spoke with him was in fact in about the last week of his active life – I phoned to see if I could be of ANY help having heard of his plight with what I had been told was a brain tumour. We spoke for a few minutes but although I have run a casual cancer help line since I started down this cancer trail in the late 1990s he was clearly very angry at his plight but still robustly fighting the disease.
Ian’s career is well documented at CLICK HERE and it is clear that even within extremist politics he met with mixed reactions of respect and vitriolic hatred.
The last political contact I had had with him was some time ago when I was invited to a conference he was holding, but I declined to attend as the travelling was beyond that which my health would cope with.
It transpired that I was fortunate in not attending as only 15 people turned up and some of them left in contempt at being expected to listen to the liar and low life cheat Mick McGough speaking as a makeweight to give some semblance of relevance. One individual stormed out during Mick McGough‘s speech saying he hadn’t travelled this far to listen to this boring old fool mumbling and telling everyone how clever he was.
Sadly I gather from more polite individuals that they wished they had done likewise!
I was sorry to hear that Ian Anderson had died though I vehemently disagreed with many of his views and his associates – His publication, sporadic as it was was in other respects consistent. He had also been a source for cost effective printing for the Nationalist movement if never quite making the essential step to Patriotism and EUroRealism he had a following.
Ian Anderson’s funeral took place on 15-Feb-2011 bringing to an end his controversial life at only 57.
MEP NIKKI SINCLAIRE CALLS FOR A STOP TO POSITIVE DISCRIMINATION
FOR WOMEN
It Is Good To See Mike Nattrasse MEP supporting Nikki Sinclaire MEP as The Other Independent UKIP MEP with the integrity to disassociate himself from Nigel Farage’s corrupt self serving association with his racist, anti Jewish, violently anti homosexual claque in his Pan EU Political EFD Party Group. MEP Nikki Sinclaire chose International Women’s Day to suggest the EU should put a stop to positive discrimination for women.
In a speech at the Strasbourg parliament today, Nikki declared her belief that the European Parliament had lost touch with reality. The MEP stated that she is against discrimination of any kind – even positive – as it inevitably leads to the creation of victims. She cited a report tabled in Parliament this week by Rovana Plumb calling for positive discrimination in ‘social, economic and political life’ as well as education.
She referred to a report tabled in the Parliament this week by Rovana Plumb calling for positive discrimination in “social, economic, and political life”, and also in education.
Plumb also suggests that member states revise their immigration policies in order to allow female immigrants easier access to employment.
The West Midlands’ independent MEP added that women do not need to be patronized by quotas and, instead, need barriers to their progress to be removed. The EU would be better placed focusing on issues such as the need for improved and State-funded childcare, particularly in certain member states, she added. According to a Commission report in 2008, Malta, Slovakia, Lithuania, Czech Republic and Poland have poor child support and childcare facilities. Ireland has also suffered from low investment in this area despite a particularly high birth rate.
Commenting on her speech, Nikki Sinclaire said: “We have seen a recent Court of Justice decision on car insurance that boycotts traditional, tried-and-tested and sensible methods of risk assessment.
Despite the EU’s stance to positively discriminate in the favour of women, this case exemplifies a politically-correct, Euro-babble and entirely potty decision that actually makes life more difficult – and expensive – for women. Common sense is an anathema to the EU.”
“Let’s encourage and facilitate equality of treatment and opportunity regardless of gender. That is real equality”.
