How Many Brexit Parties Does Britain Need?
Let’s not trip each other up!
A month or so ago, I wrote about the need to be relaxed about both UKIP and Nigel’s new Brexit Party contesting the Strasbourg elections…

Nigel Farage,
Making Plans For Nigel? Why Not?
In a system of proportional representation, whichever party gets the fewer votes drops out and those votes are transferred to whichever party the voters indicated was their second preference.
The same applies if there are 3 or 4 preferences, though it may confuse much of the electorate in the UK, which is not used to such a system.
Now we have a third party. Jeremy Hosking’s heart is no doubt in the right place but his money is in the wrong place if his billboards are the prelude to yet another party.
Yet he seems determined that his Brexit Express will contest UK elections.

And I hear there’s a fourth party emerging, Our Nation, led by Henry Bolton, ex-UKIP leader.
NOT GOOD – the same arguments propounded above do not apply to Westminster elections.
There, it’s first past the post.
So if we had a constituency with Brexit Party and UKIP both contesting, the anti-Europhiliac vote would be split.
If there was also a candidate from Brexit Express, and/or Our Nation, it’s fair to say the parties of the rotten ruling class would romp home…

…the in-crowd traitors of Lab-Lib-Con keeping their malign grip on the levers of power.
Hosking and Bolton are both patriots, but they would be better to start talks right away with Nigel Farage, to ensure a common front against Britain’s Enemy Within!
There is work to be done to destroy an evil entity – unity is essential.

I follow Farage. He has the winning skills and that is what we need.

I know you read ‘spiked.com’ but did you see this week about how the EU have rigged the rules to get Juncker’s favourite up the power ladder?
….
Martin Selmayr’s ruthless rise
The top EU official was handed his job by illegal means.
It is sickening how completely dishonest the European Commission is.

Unity is essential.
Divide up the seats to be fought, UKIP here, Brexit Party there, the other freedom party somewhere else. At the same time, preserve a common front to make sure of a fair share of party political broadcasts.
The ruling class will try to keep us off the airwaves, they tremble at truth told.

One is enough!
In Scotland in the 1970 general election the SNP was firmly anti-EEC, as the ‘European Project/Fourth Reich’ was called at the time.
Within about ten years the party had dropped nationalism and that was when I stopped voting SNP.
Tories are untrustworthy so I hope Nigel and the others patch up their differences and soon.
