In a major coup for UKIP long time Chairman of
Waveney District Council, Cllr Peter Collecott has announced that
he is joining the party and standing for it in May. Speaking this
morning Nigel Farage said, "I was delighted to meet Peter last night
and to welcome him to our ever growing team in Suffolk. To have
somebody as respected and well thought of in Waveney join us is
a huge boost. He understands as we do that the purpose of a local
Councillor is to represent their ward, and their constituents, rather
than be driven by the ideological requirements of a party. Yes of
course we want to leave the EU and to cut down on uncontrolled
mass immigration, but first we must serve the people that elect us.
It is the simple bread and butter of local democracy and nobody
knows this better than Peter".

Mr Collecott said, "I'm looking forward to getting stuck in with
this
campaign. I have served Oulton for years now to the best of my
abilities
and I remain as committed to it as I always have been. It is great to
be
part of a UKIP team that will deliver for the people of
Waveney".
