“Nadine Dorries to join UKIP”

Sources suggest that Nadine Dorries is planning to join UKIP after the expected demolition of the Conservative Party in the European elections next year. In fact it has been said that there are up to 7 Conservative MPs seriously considering their future. Certainly if the surge in support for UKIP continues then many Conservative MPs who still have some affection for old fashioned conservative principles such as national sovereignty, controlled immigration and the benefits of employment, will wonder whether or not they will be around to promote them in a much reduced Conservative Party after 2015.

Support the Coffee House Wall

Over the last few days we have attracted extra traffic to the site, and had comments from quite a few new people. The number of pages being viewed is running at over 4,500 a day with 2,100 visitors. We have at least a little market of folk who are interested enough in our conversation to keep coming back for more, even if they haven't introduced themselves, and I have certainly benefited from the returning many times each day to read the views and opinons expressed freely here by many people.

But every site needs support, and this one is no different. And that is not to suggest that what people have already done is not appreciated and greatly valued. Nevertheless if we can share the address of the site with more people and on at other places then it will help us to discover new friends who have similar views to ourselves, and others who are not afraid to contradict us. If we can add a link to the site when we post on the mainstream media comments sections this will also help to advertise our presence as a place where people can speak openly and robustly.

UKIP victory in 37 minutes time!

In 37 minutes UKIP will have won a great victory. It will be a sign that things need not continue as they are, and that it is possible to change the political landscape by a peaceful, democratic revolution of ordinary people. UKIP has developed from a tiny fringe party with few supporters to a national political movement attracting millions of British votes, and causing the established parties increasing anxiety about the future.

In 37 minutes I am going to my local Polling Station and I will be voting in a secret ballot for two local councillors. I've done this many times before. As a young, foolish and idealistic adult I first voted for the Labour Party. But for most of my life I have voted for the Conservative Party, having realised at some point that not only could I not vote for Michael Foot, but that I fundamentally disagreed with what he was proposing.

UKIP’s Secret Weapon

UKIP has a secret weapon that none of the other political parties can use to their advantage in the forthcoming Council elections, nor indeed in the European and General elections if things continue on their present course. The secret weapon is not Nigel Farage. He is undoubtedly a politician who encourages and inspires support for the headline policies of UKIP, and his natural generosity of spirit certainly make him an attractive leader of the party. But political parties and movements must be more than a matter of attractive personalities.

In 1997 a great many people were deceived by the outwardly attractive person of Tony Blair. Indeed his entire period of office was built around the pseudo character he played so well and for so long. There were many people who believed in Tony Blair and believed that 'things can only get better' because he said so.

Unemployment problem? Let’s import some more!

There are plenty of good reasons to reduce and restrict the very high level of immigration which we see each year. The most obvious reason is that giving out 670,000 National Insurance numbers to foreign nationals each year cannot help but increase our own domestic levels of unemployment, especially among the young and the less well-skilled. But statistics produced by the Equality and Human Rights Commission shows that a large proportion of certain migrant communities are destined to add their numbers to the ranks of the unemployed, and therefore we are allowing those to immigrate who have little hope of benefiting the nation.
