Meet Delroy Young. I hesitate to point out to my more sensitive readers that he is well,....er...black.He is also a highly talented individual and UKIP Constituency Chairman. "But, isn't UKIP just BNP in suits?" to quote the wretched Guardian. - Well, no and it never has been. What do you expect other than propaganda from a leftist rag?
UKIP does not and will not play the 'tokenism game' so loved of the 3 major parties and the Greens. His only claim to fame is his ability - he has not been dragged in just because he is 'the right colour'. UKIP believes in 'equality of opportunity' NOT the ridiculous and grossly unfair "equality of outcome". He is not alone in being a black or Asian candidate for UKIP.
By the way, he is tipped in some quarters to be a possible leadership candidate in Autumn - and one who would get my vote.
Incidentally, Delroy recently stood for UKIP's National Executive and was the second of nine candidates elected from 46 who put themselves forward. Only the high profile Nigel Farage managed to pip him topping the entire poll. So apparently, not only is the leadership of UKIP not racist but the rank and file also. I append a recent letter from a UKIP local Chairman in Grimsby published in two newspapers:
Europhiles have been at pains to portray The UK Independence Party (UKIP) as xenophobic or, disgracefully, as racist.The dishonesty of this is breathtaking. Every UKIP candidate has to sign a document saying they have never belonged to any racist group.Secondly, UKIP fields candidates from a variety of ethnic backgrounds.Thirdly, our UKIP MEPs are the group in Brussels with the largest percentage of foreign spouses.Fourthly, UKIP has expelled BNP infiltrators.Fifthly, a number of leading members of the party are black.Finally, after much experience in the party, I have met those who want rigorous immigration controls (and why not?) but I have yet to meet any racists.How very disappointing for Europhiles their slurs against UKIP are as mendacious as their claims for the benefits of the EU.Perhaps this letter will help many people of varied ethnic origins to decide UKIP members are worthy recipients of their future votes.
