SIR – What a great result in the by-elections last week, Ukip winning a seat in Clacton, and nearly pulling a seat in Heywood and Middleton by the narrowest of margins.
What joy to see the two main political parties getting a damn good kippering.
Please believe me, you ain’t seen nothing yet! You and I are getting sick to the back teeth of the results of these parties’ policies which are resulting in the erosion of country.
Certain in the media, whom have a vested interest, will tell us that a vote for Ukip will result in a Labour win at next May’s election, what tosh! A while back Mr Miliband whispered to the nation meekly that: “We got it wrong on immigration”. Mr Cameron keeps promising us a in-out vote on membership of the EU, we keep hearing the same hollow promises time and time again – it’s getting like the hokey-cokey, in out, in out, shake it all about. When will we finally get a vote on EU membership, if we vote for Cam’s lot? In the year 2525?
Don’t take my word, look around see what a mess these two parties have allowed to happen to our once great nation.
