Why Should You Vote For UKIP Today?

Why should people vote UKIP across the North East? …

“Time and again in the North East – at Council, European and Parliamentary by-elections – UKIP have shown we’re the main challengers to Labour. The ‘single-Party state’ in areas which have been Labour for generations has left communities behind.

All political parties will claim their ‘sums add up’, but only UKIP can prove it: our Manifesto is independently-costed by the Centre for Economics and Business Research.

We offer real change: controlled migration not uncontrolled immigration, saving tens of billions of pounds through leaving the EU, cutting foreign aid and scrapping the Barnett Formula.

We’d raise the tax threshold so that working people would be better off – and no-one would pay Income Tax on a standard working week on minimum wage.

We’d deal with zero-hours contracts and end the Bedroom Tax, hire 8,000 new GPs and 20,000 more nurses, increase defence spending (without getting involved in costly foreign wars). We bring new ideas to politics: a flexible retirement age, and new vocational, technical and grammar schools to meet the unique needs of all children.

Locally, we’d dual the A1 and cut business rates to create jobs: under Labour and Tories the North East had the highest unemployment rates in the UK.”

 UKIP believe in Britain and UKIP believe in the North East.
