Hi,
I must say Nikki Sinclaire’s equality in planning brochure/pamphlet of just over 50 pages, is well presented and well thought out – as was her Money & Debt pamphlet where she has co-operated with ASDA to distribute, it is crammed with sound and very practical advice

TEAM WORK – & here is Nikki’s TEAM!
By Nikki Sinclaire MEP
In February 2013, Nikki Sinclaire MEP published a policy paper: ‘Equality in Planning; A fresh look at unlawful development and a new deal for travellers, settled communities, and the environment’. She explains the rationale behind her paper, and the policy proposals it contains.
On 30 April 2010, whilst meeting with constituents in Solihull, I received a call from
a resident of Meriden. This is the charming and historic small town that proudly lays
claims to be at the very geographical centre of England. In fact, this peaceful, leafy, and friendly community, with its war memorial serenely standing on its beautifully tended green, might also be seen to represent the spiritual heart of our country.
But the call I received was one of distress. A large field on the eastern edge of Meriden had been taken over by travellers, and men and machines were frantically tearing up Green Belt land – which they had legally purchased – to create hard standings and infrastructure in order to create a traveller’s camp. No planning permission had been given, although an application had been handed into Solihull Council just moments before they closed for the Bank Holiday.
This was to be a fait accompli.
But in a stunning display of community spirit, the residents rallied around,
blockaded roads leading to the site, and mounted what was to become a 24 hour,
7 day a week vigil outside the camp. They were to experience intimidation from
the travellers, from the police, and from the local council, but their resolve never
wavered. Every legal avenue was explored and exploited; every move was watched
and challenged. Jan 23 2013 marked the 1000th day of this extraordinary fight
back. It was a fight for fairness, and for equality before the law. It was a fight for the
Green Belt that is always under threat from planners, and which must be preserved
for future generations. It was a fight for the rights of homeowners and residents to
enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the community that they had all helped to build.
I have spent countless days and nights on the piquet with the good folk of
Meriden, standing in the rain with a bowl of soup in my hands, and enjoying the
camaraderie. I have made many trips to Solihull Council to give evidence, and have
written in the press in their support. I have also made many good friends.
But conflict of interests lies at the very heart of politics. Whilst the good folk of
Meriden have every right to protect their legitimate interests, so the law-abiding
travelling community has the right to protect its own interests.
I have become aware over the last two and a half years of failings in the system –
failings that adversely affect both sides in this dispute. In areas such as healthcare
and education, for example, travellers are disadvantaged. There are also failures
to provide adequate space for travellers in many areas. John Prescott’s ridiculous
edict that effectively gives travellers ‘special rights’ has created resentment towards
travellers amongst the settled community. If one feels marginalised, then exploiting
loopholes in the planning system, and acting in opportunist self-interest may seem
to be the only way forward.
Add to this mix unscrupulous property developers, attaching themselves to the
travelling community and cynically using them in order to justify inappropriate
and illegal development in the pursuit of profit, the abuse of Green Belt land that
will anger many no matter how far away they may be from any inappropriate
development, and we can see that genuine travellers and their families are caught
in the middle.
My offers to meet with the travellers were sadly rejected, although I can fully
understand why they might be suspicious of politicians.
But I was elected to serve all residents of the West Midlands, and so that end,
I have produced this document, in which I explore possible policy options
from which I hope that we can address the problems of the travellers, give
reassurance and security not only to the residents of Meriden but to all, and to end
the ‘them and us’ nature of this issue.
An Englishman’s home is his castle, but I would argue that every Englishman, or
woman, regardless of their lifestyle should have the chance to acquire a home, and
that all communities should be able to live side by side without fear or suspicion.
Laws should not merely be respected, but they must be worthy of the respect of
all. At the time of writing, this is clearly not the case. We must fix it.
Nikki Sinclaire sits on the European Parliament’s Human Rights subcommittee.

TO LEAVE THE EU
What is the Exit and Survival Plan for these United Kingdoms to maximise on the many benefits when we Leave-The-EU. It is the DUTY of our Politicians and Snivil Cervants to ensure the continuity, liberty and right to self determination of our peoples – they have a DUTY to protect against crime and secure both our food and our borders.
They also have a duty to put in place contingency plans for the collapse of The EUro & The EU or the wishes of the peoples of Britain to Leave-The-EU.
NONE of these DUTIES has a single British politician upheld for over 40 years. They have drawn their incomes fraudulently and dishonesty.
Politicians are failing to tell the truth, but so are almost all wanabe Politicians, the Main Stream Media and Snivil Cervants.
The fact is that even if EVERY British MEP wanted change in The EU it would achieve NOTHING, at very best if they ALL agreed they would then still have less than a 10% say in the governance of Britain by The EU.
Every single British Politician, of EVERY Party, elected since before we joined the EUropean Common Market, has promised to change The EU’s CAP – In 40 Years they have achieved absolutely NOTHING towards that unanimous promise!
To try to put a value on OUR Freedom is as futile as floccipaucinihilipilification and as odious as the metissage of our societies, as we rummage in the ashes of our ancestors dreams, sacrifices and achievements, the flotsam of our hopes and the jetsam of our lives, consider the Country and Anglosphere which we thus leave our children and the future, with shame!

PLEASE POST THIS TAG AS FOLLOWS: ON YOUR eMAILS & BLOGS, FORUM POSTINGS & MAILINGS – GET THE MESSAGE TO THE PEOPLE IT IS OUR BEST HOPE AS WHOEVER IS APPOINTED WILL MAKE NO DIFFERENCE AS PROVED!
I SUGGEST – since there is clearly no political party of repute, advocating or campaigning to Leave-The-EU for these United Kingdoms and restoration of our independent sovereign, democracy, with Justice & the right to self determination in a free country & minded that membership of The EU is sucking out the life blood and identity of our Country in a counter patriotic manner and at a cost in hard cash of some £53 Million a day we must consider:
Denying the self seeking & meaningless wanabe MEPs and the no longer relevant MPs the Mythical Mandate for which they clamour.
Diktat is imposed from The EU but Law should be made at Westminster, for our Country & our Peoples, by the peoples of our Country.
It is time that the entire mechanism of governance in these United Kingdoms, which has so clearly failed our Country and our peoples, was radically overhauled and updated to democratic status – failure to change will mean when we Leave-The-EU and/or it finally collapses, as it surely will, we will be no better off as the self same self styled, self enriching clique will be all too willing to betray us as they have done relative to The EU and its fore runners.
To achieve change support rational planning as with The Harrogate Agenda and similar thinking of gravitas.
Demand a Royal Commission on the cost benefits of leaving The EU and of remaining its vassals with a clear ‘Exit & Survival Strategy‘ for implementation OR responsible contingency planning dependent on THEN holding a Referendum on IN or OUT to Let-The-People-Decide!
