UKIP Some reflections

“As 22 May draws even closer expect the virulent attacks on UKIP to increase, concerned over the potential loss of his £75k/year public purse income the leader in waiting has taken to social media to use every opportunity to attack his opponents, especially UKIP.

He even used an anti-UKIP poster with the derogatory/racist phrase the white underclass to score a political point; however this has worked against him, with Rotherham West voters unhappy with the way he takes them for granted.

Double standards comes to mind when you look at the current Labour election campaign, do they really think the electorate are that stupid not to consider an alternative to the mess that Labour have made of the town?

In a recent letter in the Rotherham Advertiser a Labour supporter critisied UKIP for not having a local living in Rawmarsh to represent the ward; however Rotherham can have a Labour MP who chooses to live outside of the town.

Boston Castle voters cannot get a straight answer on what is planned for Herringthorpe playing fields or the future of the Rugby Club, one view is that it will be so stomach wrenchingly bad that the plan is being kept under lock and key until after the local elections?

They talk about standards, the Deputy Leader is a conviction politician and the last MP served time.

Before going to jail the very same MP was welcomed back by the party with a large cake and a slap on the back from his close friends in Rotherham Labour.

Peter Thirlwall who exposed the dealings of MacShame was arrested for trying to ask public interest questions.

The ruling Labour group voted to remove home to school transport for all faith based schools while retaining two top of the range Audi cars, one for the use by the Mayor and one for the Leader to go to the chip shop.

Leader in waiting draws the public attention the number of Tories deflecting to UKIP, however remains totally silent over the defection of former Tory Cllr Darren Hughes to Labour and Hughes standing as a Labour MEP candidate.

Rotherham Labour openly supports mass immigration into the town, Stone jets off fact finding, Hussain gives a key note address to Yorkshire Migration and at least one if not two Labour Cllrs profit from payments via housing benefits paid directly to their bank accounts.

They rightly condemn the EDL, however again they gloss over the facts that they created the conditions for the EDL to target Rotherham. Each and everyone one of them, some with more knowledge of the scale of child rape in Rotherham than others hid behind the skirt of community cohesion as a reason not to act.

Using spurious statistics to justify the closure of Children’s Centre’s is yet another example of this out of touch administration, they are starting to look and sound like a typical Daily Mail reader with their bigoted attitudes, contempt for local democracy and a disdain for the white underclass.

The Trade Unions are used as mugs to add weight to the campaign and when the elections are over back in the cupboard.

Labour shows no signs of mending their ways; in fact they consider themselves untouchable so much so that Leader in waiting has already drawn up the list for his new cabinet.

I used to vote Labour, I am now seriously considering UKIP.

Voters will have a real opportunity for change on 22 May, use your vote wisely.”
