you only have to look back over the last 30 years to see the LibLabCon and how much they lied about practically everything they promised. UKIP makes no promises about stuff it knows it cannot make promises about. It simply knows that ONE million council homes cannot be plucked out of thin air - as LORD PRESCOTT found out when he promised it, endless welfare cheques for all is unsustainable, unaffordable unwinnable wars cannot be fought without aircraft carriers and a tiny armed forces with 80,000 soldiers that wouldn't even fill the old Wembly stadium. It knows that this small country cannot endlessly be populated by foriegn nationals coming in at unsustainable rates whilst continuing to provide services NHS, schools, infrastructure ect as good as we are used to. UKIP knows that £1.2 trillion national debt will not simply go away and you cannot keep spending more money that you take in - in taxes, and it knows that half of the problem is the EU that costs us £55 million a day yet we only get back around £25 million a day, that is failing to allow us to run the UK properly. And yes I voted Labour all my life and I was in a union, but never again.[/quote]

Lots of people make protest votes by voting for parties they don't necessarily favour just to get their point across to the party they would have preferred to have voted for
And voting for UKIP will at least scare the c*** out of the other parties, assuming the majority of people in this country have the sense to jump on board, because if the pressure is strong enough (around 22% at the last count) then something will be done about EU membership
As far as I'm concerned if anybody wants something done about this then your only option is to vote for UKIP
This general election could well be our last opportunity to exit the EU before we become a Federal State. So if that's all UKIP achieve then that's good enough for me because anything else they do doesn't matter
The Conservatives are the only main party showing any signs of giving us a referendum to vote on our sovereignty and a decision as to who should be in charge. The other two don't care so you can write them off for good
As Manuel Barroso has been pointing out though it's a pointless exercise to try and negotiate for a better deal in the EU. You're either in or your not because you can't have special deals for one member as everybody else will then went to negotiate their own deals and it would get too complicated to govern
From my perspective, the Tory agenda is nothing but a vote winning scam to stop people deserting to UKIP because IF they win the general election they can make excuses not to hold this referendum because all they've agreed to is to make this part of their manifesto
And even if they do give us a referendum with the option to exit the EU there's no obligation for them to do that or even say when they'll do it. All their manifesto will be saying we'll get is a public vote on accepting or rejecting something
In contrast UKIP's main policy is for this country to leave the EU. It can't get any simpler than that
