My first months have been very interesting...albeit somewhat difficult...and it has certainly been a steep learning curve.As a newly-elected MEP you are thrown into the deep end. Before I had time to figure out the implications of being an MEP, I was "up to my eyes" with membership of the two most...

If the Times is to be believed it would seem Cameron is running scared of a certain Mr Nigel Farage… Mr Bercow — who, despite being a Conservative, owed his victory to a well-organised campaign by Labour MPs — has repaired relations with Mr Cameron. The Tory leader has made clear to party members...

Former Conservative leader Michael Howard has accused all the mainstream parties of failing to do enough to challenge the British National Party. Mr Howard said it was important for politicians to confront the BNP in the run-up to the general election. But this was not being done to the extent necessary,...

Conservative Home have a thread running which asks: “Can you produce a better anti-Labour poster?” This is a competition in which all three main political parties should combine their efforts and produce a poster that all three could use and thus save costs. How about: Vote Labour –...

Ok so im a uni History student from Northern Ireland, a unionist oddly enough but I have a big interest in Nationalist history and here’s a quick bit of History for you all from when all Ireland was British.  It is linked to what I would have UKIP doing if it was up to me. So their was a party...

Apparently some bright spark in our federal government (that’s the EU, by the way) has come up with this blinding idea… Europe is making moves to give British MEPs the ‘right’ to sit in the House of Commons at certain times in the year. I told you it was a blinder. But, er, why,...

I am what you would call an endangered species, I am a member of UKIP who believes in global warming/man made climate change.  I agree it was a good thing to have Lord Monckton on board ( http://www.ukip.org/content/latest-news/1363-monckton-joins-ukip ) and it is bringing in publicity which is...

I joined UKIP as I truly believe that they are the only party that can save our great country. Unlike the other parties they will put the British people first.  Many don’t understand my choice and I constantly get told “they only have one policy” and I can’t blame them for this as we don’t...

Cumbria MEP Paul Nuttall today urged the county council to try to ensure the plight of Workington folk, many of whose lives were devastated in the recent flooding, is not exacerbated by the bad weather. “The people of Cumbria are hardy and are well used to harsh winter weather but for those whose homes...

This is just embarrassing. More embarrassing than Sion Simon MP doing his hideous attempt at humour. This is the nativity story as told by…Nick Griffin. Notice him stroking his cat like some friendly evil villain with shocking story telling abilities. No doubt he has something to say about the...
