The Policy of the party is to encourage enquires re our main objective the withdrawal of England from the EU. and the return of an English Parliament. We have included other related matters but our emphasis must be on those matters for which the party was formed in 1994.
Many issues raised are very important and when the party is nearer to achieving a greater following and still bearing the above statement in mind we will extend our manifesto to all areas of interest to a free independent English people. For the time being we do not wish to 'muddy the waters' with issues that do not concern our main objective.
We decided after the 1999 to close the membership to the party as we decided that the main objection would be achieved earlier if ALL eurosceptic parties supported the United Kingdom Independence Party and neither have we accepted any donations instead emphasising the need to send any donations to the UKIP.
FUNDING OF POLITICAL PARTIES
MANY VOTERS ARE UNAWARE THAT THE MAIN POLITICAL PARTIES ALREADY RECEIVE MILLIONS IN POLITICAL FUNDING FROM THE GOVERNMENT. OTHER FRINGE PARTIES HAVE ONLY WHAT FUNDS THEY ARE ABLE TO RAISE BY MEMBERSHIP FEES, DONATIONS AND IN A NUMBER OF CASES THE GENEROSITY OF THE ORIGINAL FOUNDERS OF THE PARTY.
IN ORDER FOR THE PARTY TO CONTEST A SEAT AT A GENERAL ELECTION A MINIMUM OF £500 IS REQUIRED FOR THE NOMINATION FEE AND A FURTHER £1000/1500 FOR LEAFLETS ETC.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BECOMING A CANDIDATE YOU WILL NEED SIX MEMBERS TO FORM A BRANCH (UNLESS THERE ARE ALREADY MEMBERS IN YOUR AREA) AND A FURTHER 50 MEMBERS IN ORDER TO PROVIDE £1000 THE BARE MINIMUM TO CONTEST THE ELECTION, WITH NO DEDUCTION FOR CONTRIBUTING TO EDP CENTRAL OFFICE. IN MANY CASES BRANCHES ARE ABLE TO RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS FROM DONATIONS AND SOCIAL ACTIVITIES.
AS WITH ALL POLITICAL PARTIES IN THE MIDDLE PERIOD OF A FUTURE ELECTION WHEN MEMBERSHIP TENDS TO DECLINE THERE IS A DEARTH OF FUNDS. SOME PARTIES MAY HAVE ONLY NOW PAID OFF THE DEFICIT OF MONIES BORROWED AT THE LAST ELECTION.
WHEN YOU DECIDE TO BECOME A MEMBER OR MAKE A DONATION PLEASE CONSIDER THE DIFFICULTIES THAT THE SMALLER PARTIES ARE UNDER AND GIVE AS GENEROUSLY AS YOU CAN. WITHOUT YOUR HELP WE ARE HELPLESS TO CHANGE THE STATUS QUO.
THE CHOICE IS YOURS?
BEFORE YOU MAKE A DECISION TO JOIN A EUROSCEPTIC PARTY WE WISH YOU TO KNOW OF THE EXISTENCE OF ANOTHER PARTY RECENTLY FORMED – THE ENGLISH DEMOCRATS WHOM WE HAVE MENTIONED ELSEWHERE ON OUR WEB-SITE. THEY ARE A SIMILARLY - MINDED PARTY AND WE BRING THEIR PARTY TO YOUR ATTENTION IN ORDER THAT YOU ARE AWARE OF THE SUBTLE DIFFERENCES OF POLICY. SHOULD YOU CONSIDER THEM TO FULFIL YOUR EXPECTATIONS WE WILL BE PLEASED THAT YOU HAVE JOINED AN ENGLISH PARTY.
HOWEVER AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, WE HAVE BEEN OF THE OPINION THAT THE UKIP SHOULD BE THE PARTY TO SUPPORT AS IT HAS THE GREATER MEMBERSHIP AND ITS MESSAGE IS UNMISTAKABLE AND IS THEREFORE THE PARTY TO OBTAIN OUR FREEDOM OUT OF THE EUROPEAN UNION. WE IN THE EDP HAVE REMAINED ON THE POLITICAL SCENE BECAUSE WE HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO THOSE WHO VOTED FOR US IN THE 1997 AND 1999 ELECTIONS AND ALSO TO DEFEND THE ENGLISH POINT OF VIEW AS AN INDEPENDENT NATION STATE WITHIN A FAMILY OF INDEPENDENT NATION STATES OF A GREATER BRITAIN.
WE WISH TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT WE HAVE NOT ACCEPTED ANY DONATIONS OR REQUEST FOR MEMBERSHIP SINCE THE1997 GENERAL ELECTION BEING MINDFUL OF THE GREATER GOOD OF SUPPORTING THE UKIP BUT STILL DEFENDING THE RIGHTS AND LIBERTIES OF THE ENGLISH PEOPLE. WITH AN ENGLISH PARLIAMENT AT WESTMINSTER.
WE HOPE THAT THE ENGLISH DEMOCRATS WHO HAVE GATHERED A SIGNIFICANT MEMBERSHIP OVER THE PAST WILL ALSO ENCOURAGE THEIR MEMBERSHIP AT THE NEXT GENERAL ELECTION IN 2007 TO VOTE FOR THE UKIP IN ORDER TO BRING OUR DAYS IN THE CORRUPT UNACCOUNTABLE POLICE STATE TO AN END.
IT IS A TIME FOR THE UNITY OF ALL EUROSCEPTIC PARTIES IN A COMMON PURPOSE TO ASSIST THE UKIP TO FINALLY BREAK THE BARRIER TO UKIP MEMBERSHIP IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS IN 2007.
