South Staffordshire By Election

Reports circulating widely among the increasingly bemused and presumably declining membership of Veritas last evening now suggest that David Soutter, during his vist today to the City Hall offices of Damian Hockney and Michael Harvey will do a volte face and now propose Veritas not stand a candidate in the above by election.

Veritas members will therefore now be able to consider the best action they can take to advance their own beliefs freed from the irrelevance of a David Soutter led campaign in this crucial contest.

I recommend consideration be given to the English Democrats, website linked here.

There is a slim chance that UKIP may see sense and stand aside to let a strong independent candidate such as Neil Herron carry the protest banner into Parliament - but failing that it is difficult to see at this stage what best course to take.

Let's just hope for the moment that the rumours are true and there will be no Veritas/UKIP clash to further destroy the democracy of the nation!

I copy for convenience my blog of this morning on the same topic on Ukip Uncovered:

South Staffordshire By Election

The Veritas meeting being held today, looks likely to finally come to the inevitable and correct decision not to field a candidate for that party in the 23rd June potentially mould-breaking contest in the above constituency.

I have been privileged to have seen a late draft of a very important article to be published in the next edition of Eurofacts written by UKIP NEC member Anthony Scholefield which I understand will be titled 'AFTER THE VOTE'. In shattering detail it reveals the dire threats to English democracy posed by the recent General Election results and the present unacceptable political status quo within the UK.

I will this morning suggest to Veritas members through my 'Veritas Straight Talk' blog, linked here, tha they consider helping the English Democrat campaign in South Staffordshire. This now seems possibly the best means of delivering the seismic shock needed by the blinkered elite within the British political system.

If UKIP were to similarly decide not to stand and thereafter promote a renowned Independent Eurosceptic such as Neil Herron as I have previously suggested (or instead perhaps field their own prime campaign asset as a candidate) then similar support for the English Democrats might be worth consideration by fromer disaffected or former members of UKIP, many of whom I know read this blog.

Details of the English Democrats and their South Staffordshire candidate, Garry Bushell can be obtained from their website linked here.

I fully realise that this is a less than ideal alternative forthinking euro-sceptics who clearly and correctly believe the main threat to the nation comes from EU, but given that the leadership of UKIP and now lamentably Veritas seem to prefer the comforts of Brussels, Strasbourg or the London Assembly combined with never-ending internal bickering and disputation - what other realistic alternative is there?
