UKIP - Dynamic Ideas On Political Reform.


FullSizeRender.jpg

UKIP announces plans for political reform. Published Apr 13, 2015

Douglas Carswell and UKIP Leader Nigel 
Farage have announced UKIP's plans for political reform today in Clacton.
They announced that UKIP will bring forward a Citizen's Initiative, 
so the people of Britain can directly influence legislation. A national 
referendum will be held every two years on the most popular petition 
gathering over 2 million signatures and the outcome will be in the Queen's 
 Speech.
UKIP will also introduce real recall: the Tories have fudged their promise 
of recall to sack MPs, leaving it up to MPs and only 
allowing recall in certain circumstances. We will give genuine 
power to the people to sack their MP (or Councillor, etc). On 
voting reform. UKIP believes that the dated First Past the Post 
(FPTP) electoral system is no longer relevant in the four/five/six/ 
 party politics of the 21st century. We want a new electoral system 
in which every vote counts.
It has become increasingly obvious that the current situation with 
postal votes is not fit for purpose. We will tear up the current postal 
vote register and start again from scratch. There is fraud on a massive 
scale that's turned some areas into banana republics when it comes to 
voting. You must have a valid reason for needing a postal vote.

Cameron Sagging.


Exhaustion hits the Tory Battle bus.

Nigel_Twitter.jpegAccording to Andrew Neil he was told by a Tory donor, "Tory campaign useless. Cameron's heart not in it. Not looking good". This was confirmed moments later by Tory commentator Tim Montgomerie who said that, “Cameron has wanted out for a while. He has just wanted to go out on some sort of high and hasn't been able to find that high.”
UKIP Leader Nigel Farage said: “Reports that senior Tory donors are suggesting that the Conservative Party campaign is in disarray are of no surprise to me.
"Mr Cameron has failed to capture the imagination of the electorate with his party’s empty promises, and he has focused almost entirely on negative, American-style campaigning.
"In fact, on the back of Mr Cameron begging for UKIP voters to vote for his party, what we are seeing is quite the opposite. Voters appear to be increasingly impressed with UKIP's costed manifesto, including independently audited proposals on controlling immigration, increased funding for our NHS, and bringing forward a free and fair referendum on European Union membership.
"As this election campaign draws to a close, I would be unsurprised to see UKIP's vote share increase, and I am increasingly bullish on the positive impact we can make on May 7th."

Sarah Wollaston, Conservative candidate in Devon has branded supporters of true marriage "bigots". A leaflet distributed by Coalition for Marriage highlighted that she voted for same-sex 'marriage'. It urges people in the Totnes constituency to use their vote for true marriage. In response she tweeted: “Thanks bigots, I’m proud of that vote!” Her comment shows a disdain for people who believe in marriage as between a man and a woman. Let's use our voice to continue to speak up for marriage.  Christian Concern.

Pro-Life Group Banned.

I still cannot get over those of the liberal left who are horrified by the death penalty yet are happy to see fully formed or even viable babies butchered in the womb. If you take the opposite view on both of these - there is, at least, consistency. If you always support 'life' there is consistency too but ...

Patrick Mackay.

The appalling serial killer and psychopath, Patrick Mackay, was featured on Professor David Wilson's 'Psychopath: The Devil's Disciple' programme.
Experts tumbled out of the woodwork to explain his behaviour and called him a consistent liar. Strangely enough, they then relied on Mackay's own uncorroborated accounts of his 'unhappy childhood and how he was subject to abuse.'

Really - you can't have it both ways. The truth is - the only reports on his childhood come from the man himself.

After The Bali Executions - A Question.

Are there likely to be more or fewer drug importers there in the future? You either fight these people to win, or like us, you surrender to them.

Apparently, a number of these men died singing Amazing Grace. As Wilde said, "When a man knows he is to be hanged in the morning - it concentrates the mind wonderfully.'' I pray that these souls really had repented. I wonder if there would have been any other circumstances which would have brought about such a change in them? After all, it is inconceivable that they had been both drug runners and practising believers at the same time.

Er ... Yes.

Dr Rajmohan was filmed admitting that gender abortion is infanticide before agreeing to an abortion because the baby was a girl.

Global Warming Fiddle.

Last month, we are told, the world enjoyed “its hottest March since records began in 1880”. This year, according to “US government scientists”, already bids to outrank 2014 as “the hottest ever”. The figures from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) were based, like all the other three official surface temperature records on which the world’s scientists and politicians rely, on data compiled from a network of weather stations by NOAA’s Global Historical Climate Network (GHCN).
But here there is a puzzle. These temperature records are not the only ones with official status. The other two, Remote Sensing Systems (RSS) and the University of Alabama (UAH), are based on a quite different method of measuring temperature data, by satellites. And these, as they have increasingly done in recent years, give a strikingly different picture. Neither shows last month as anything like the hottest March on record, any more than they showed 2014 as “the hottest year ever”.
An adjusted graph from the Goddard Institute for Space Studies
Back in January and February, two items in this column attracted more than 42,000 comments to the Telegraph website from all over the world. The provocative headings given to them were “Climategate the sequel: how we are still being tricked by flawed data on global warming” and “The fiddling with temperature data is the biggest scientific scandal”.
My cue for those pieces was the evidence multiplying from across the world that something very odd has been going on with those official surface temperature records, all of which ultimately rely on data compiled by NOAA’s GHCN. Careful analysts have come up with hundreds of examples of how the original data recorded by 3,000-odd weather stations has been “adjusted”, to exaggerate the degree to which the Earth has actually been warming. Figures from earlier decades have repeatedly been adjusted downwards and more recent data adjusted upwards, to show the Earth having warmed much more dramatically than the original data justified.
So strong is the evidence that all this calls for proper investigation that my articles have now brought a heavyweight response. The Global Warming Policy Foundation (GWPF) has enlisted an international team of five distinguished scientists to carry out a full inquiry into just how far these manipulations of the data may have distorted our picture of what is really happening to global temperatures.
The panel is chaired by Terence Kealey, until recently vice-chancellor of the University of Buckingham. His team, all respected experts in their field with many peer-reviewed papers to their name, includes Dr Peter Chylek, a physicist from the National Los Alamos Laboratory; Richard McNider, an emeritus professor who founded the Atmospheric Sciences Programme at the University of Alabama; Professor Roman Mureika from Canada, an expert in identifying errors in statistical methodology; Professor Roger Pielke Sr, a noted climatologist from the University of Colorado, and Professor William van Wijngaarden, a physicist whose many papers on climatology have included studies in the use of “homogenisation” in data records.
Their inquiry’s central aim will be to establish a comprehensive view of just how far the original data has been “adjusted” by the three main surface records: those published by the Goddard Institute for Space Studies (Giss), the US National Climate Data Center and Hadcrut, that compiled by the East Anglia Climatic Research Unit (Cru), in conjunction with the UK Met Office’s Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction. All of them are run by committed believers in man-made global warming.
Below, the raw data in graph form
For this the GWPF panel is initially inviting input from all those analysts across the world who have already shown their expertise in comparing the originally recorded data with that finally published. In particular, they will be wanting to establish a full and accurate picture of just how much of the published record has been adjusted in a way which gives the impression that temperatures have been rising faster and further than was indicated by the raw measured data.
Already studies based on the US, Australia, New Zealand, the Arctic and South America have suggested that this is far too often the case.
But only when the full picture is in will it be possible to see just how far the scare over global warming has been driven by manipulation of figures accepted as reliable by the politicians who shape our energy policy, and much else besides. If the panel’s findings eventually confirm what we have seen so far, this really will be the “smoking gun”, in a scandal the scale and significance of which for all of us can scarcely be exaggerated.

That Education Debate With Jonathan Arnott MEP.

Do Not Trust Tories On Rail Fares.

Voters won’t be fooled by Tory rail fares pledge.

Jill_Seymour.jpegUKIP Transport spokesman Jill Seymour insisted voters would not be fooled by David Cameron’s promise to freeze rail fares ‘in real terms’ on major commuter routes for the next five years.
Mrs Seymour, the West Midlands MEP who is fighting The Wrekin constituency in Shropshire at the general election, accused the Tories of ‘dangling a carrot’ merely to try to win votes.
“It’s a bit late in the day for the Conservatives to decide it’s time to get a grip on rip-off rail fares, and trying to pose as a friend of the daily commuter," she said.
“Since the coalition came into power in 2010, the average rail ticket has risen in price by around 20 per cent – way ahead of inflation.

David Cameron reiterated his support for  'LGBT rights' on Radio 1 Newsbeat this week. The PM said he was proud of introducing the bill that legalised same-sex 'marriage'. His comments align with the Conservative manifesto, which emphasises the Conservatives’ intention to “champion” 'LGBT' rights. This suggests that the Conservatives may seek further to undermine marriage and family in our society and is not good news for those who seek to speak of God's good pattern.
