15:3965159Well, the point is, that those which were British owned or still are, have been in the vast majority sold to oversees companies over the past few years or are being sold at this present time.
This means that their profits will no longer be taxed by the British treasury, but by the treasuries of other countries.
UKIP policy is also to find out where the finances are going wrong and why our Country is rapidly collapsing into total bankruptcy, tendency increasing.
We wish to inform the people and convince the many to vote for UKIP and so-by save our Country from a dismal agony.
We will take advantage of every opportunity possible to expose the blunders that the main parties have committed themselves to in terms of economic disaster.
We hope to have them stopped at the next Elections, told to get down from the steering-wheel and to release their foot from the accelerator, and sent home!
They are in no position to continue leading our Nation, they have smashed up the Vehicle so much, and the evidence proves it!
That is why we UKIP members are active in informing people that we need a new Government, and this means working for the votes!

reading your post are you saying that companies like edf and veolia should be sent home?
i believe that many large organisations are global and as such do not have a home.

15:5865165Well, to give a more comprehensive view, I would have to consult the Daily Mail of yesterday which revealed the information. It does seem that many British energy companies have been brought up by oversees companies, which is not an invitation of mine to send foreign energy companies home. It's merely a statement of facts I have read concerning the British economy, and I concluded that if such money-makers as energy firms have to be sold off for a sum of cash, then they will no longer be able to pay tax on their profits to our treasury, as they are no longer British companies.
It has nothing to do with sending home foreign companies, Howard.
Also, once an energy company is sold off, like all things that are sold, it cannot be sold a second time by the same owner. So what will be sold next, I wonder, Dover Port and all British ports? When revenues stop coming in from companies that are no longer British, it will hit the treasury hard, and already has, so all they need to sell now in order to present a few more budgets for a few more years is all our national assets. Once that money has gone, who knows what they will try to sell next. The national debt, memanwhile, constantly increasing!

21:1065248We are the only party that know what our EMPs are doing at anyone time,so what Marek has put on the UKIP post (2) is rubbish.
The E,Parliament refuses to commemorate the end of the first World War.So on the 11th November last year UKIP Meps decided to hold a short service in a park not far away from the building.It was attended by MEPs from different countries including Germany.

21:1465249i can believe that bit about accountability vic, very few know or care who their representative is in brussels.
i have always seen it as a lucrative rest home for failed politicians.
why were the eurocrats against a service on the 11th november?

21:3565262We do care what our EMPs are doing.
I have been asked by letter to go to the UKIP National Conference on the 3-4 of Sep 2010at Torquay for the parade of Parliamentary Candidates,this is to celebrate the remarkable achievement or our General Election campaign,which saw our vote rise by more than 50%.
On the 9sept Exeter City Council go to the polls UKIP are puting up 5 members for that campaign, I will let you know if any get on to that council.
They are saying that it should not be commemorate,that is all.

22:2865272pigs might fly vic, dave loves to play to the gallery, sound bites nothing else.

00:2465283"Fisheries,culture and education", not sure what the synergy is there. Must be a tough role for Mr Illingworth. Dare say he'd prefer to be playing cricket at Lords.
Does anyone else believe foreign companies operating here don't pay UK tax?

17:1165401Vic - your imagination runs wild, you said: #1069
"""""On the 2200hrs news tonight the PM said we must cut our EU funding now running at £110 billion ayear,and BARRY and Marek are still saying we should say in as I have said many manytimes, we put alot more into the EU than we get out unlike some of the other members who have just join up,"We put in"They take out" That does not sound right to me ,but it is ok with BARRY and Marek ,who is right them?or me?

Can you please point to any post in which I have said we should stay in the EU?
Marek is pro-EU but I hate the organisation with a passion and have said so many times. I am just not in favour of supporting a no-hoper organisation like UKIP when a vote for them results only in an easy ride for Labour or LibDem pro-EU candidates.

02:1965423If you know what your MEP's are doing all the time, maybe you could post what they are doing at the times they should be representing the people that elected them at meetings?
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

10:3065445I personally think UKIP are a waste of space/time/vote, but that's my opinion. However, as I posted on another thread:
"UKIP MEP's are entitled to their income as they also are required to serve their consituents at home as well as in Strasbourg/Brussels or wherever. This attendance thing is nitpicking to be sure. It's what the politicos acheive that matters, and all party's representatives could do much better for this nation of ours."
Chris, do you attend every DT Council and Committee meeting? Do you spend every waking moment working for your constituents? Of course not, I know you spend time on here and Facebook, and you shouldn't be expected to give 100% of your life to a job. You are no different to MEP's or MP's tc., so Marek/Chris, please stop your unreasonable baiting of the UKIP guys on this matter.

10:4765449one minor point to add to your post sid.
chris believes in the existence of dover town council and gets roughly 400 quid a year for it, ukip representatives earn a bit more and do not believe in the existence of the european parliament.
