THE BREXIT PARTY CANDIDATE SAYS IT'S NOT JUST BREXIT

A couple of local parliamentary candidates have come on whining to the Dame that they have not been asked to 'strut their stuff' on her little blog. 
The answer is simple....you ask the Dame. 
The Dame is far too busy to solicit stuff and in any case, if you don't know about her blog (which gets some 6000 unique views weekly) you have no business claiming to know your patch.
Anyway, Jeremy Maddocks who is batting for the Brexit Party in Chelsea & Fulham pitched his policies at the Dame and here they are. 
Maddocks











Dame,

The Brexit Party “does what it says on the tin”.  
We want a clean break Brexit which leaves the EU institutions; Single Market, Customs Union and the ECJ within a few months of the election.  
Boris Johnson’s Treaty does not give us that but it does mean we will stay in a transition phase during which we are locked into all the EU institutions, pay £39bn and £1bn every extra month we stay in with no guarantee we will ever leave the transition and if we do, the political declaration and treaty commit us to alignment on regulations, taxes, foreign policy all adjudicated by the ECJ.  
None of that sounds like Brexit to me or any of us who support it.


I was a lifelong Conservative who worked for the Conservative Party for many years before I became disillusioned with the pathetic reaction of MP’s to the democratic decision of the electorate.  

I worked as a Conservative Party Agent for several politicians including Kenneth Baker whom I much admired for his loyalty to Margaret Thatcher, one of our greatest ever Prime Ministers.  

I joined the Bruges Group some 30 years ago – an organisation set up after Margaret Thatcher’s Bruges speech to campaign for the values she encapsulated in relation to the EU.  
And I worked in Eastern Europe and Africa to spread democracy for the Thatcher Foundation and build democratic organisations in Africa.  
And for the last 25 years, I have worked in the international technology business.  
In Britain, we are in that lucky minority of the world which has fostered and respected democracy over hundreds of years and it saddens me to see how politicians use every possible mechanism to squander this legacy. 
Of particular concern to me is the way that the Conservative Government has recently lost control of crime.  
Theresa May massively reduced stop and search powers and overwhelmed police with paperwork rather than reforming and enabling the police to stop crime.  
All Police Officers who have enhanced stop and search powers should be trained to do it courteously and respectfully and must have body worn cameras but only to be used extensively in high knife crime areas as part of a package of measures to take back control of our streets.  
And the people who suffer most from the rise in knife crime are young men in poor areas and particularly, ethnic minorities.  
But it has spread across our cities like a virus.  

I know this too well – my former neighbour and a close friend of the family was shot and murdered a few years ago and his funeral was held in St Ethelreda’s in my street in Fulham.  
My daughter was threatened and asked to pay money walking home from Lady Margaret school in Parsons Green.  
My son was mugged at knifepoint by three men at Bishops Park tennis courts and I cannot count the number of similar stories of friends and local people mugged, injured or worse.  This Government has failed and no amount of pre-election publicity or gimmicks can hide that failure.  
The very least they can do is apologise to the nation.

Small and medium sized businesses are being crippled by business rates and yet, the large corporates seem to have different rules apply to them.  
The same corporations who want the status quo to remain in the EU because contrary to what they might say, they don’t all like global competition and cheaper goods in our shops.  
I am not in favour of more taxes for businesses or hard working people.  
Every pound taken in tax is a pound of real money taken from an individual or a business that employs those people.  
And we all know how Government is incredibly good at wasting vast fortunes on crazy schemes and initiatives.  
The irony is that as tax rates reduce, the economy prospers and more tax is raised.  
The private sector and small businesses are the engines of growth in our country and it is our entrepreneurs and hard-working Britons who really pay for our hospitals and schools and police, not the Government.
I am Jeremy Maddocks and my campaign to be elected as Member of Parliament for Chelsea and Fulham is focussed on Brexit, Crime and the economy – and thereby a brighter future for our nation so that everyone can have a better life.  
I will do “what it says on the tin”.

  6. Maddocks needs to focus his message. Should take some PR lessons. Much too verbose. Tories need to hear the soundbite

  7. He's been stood down and won't be contesting Chelsea & Fulham, it appears this was solely the decision of Nigel Farage. The Brexit "Party" is a private company under the control of its Dear Leader Nigel Farage, it is NOT a democratic political organisation with anything resembling party democracy (it doesn't have members, only "registered supporters" who are parted with their £££ but have no real power).

    The Brexit "Party" mirrors the lies upon which Brexit itself was built. Far from "taking back control", Brexit will mean that Britain has no say in EU rules but will one way or another have to comply with them in order to have (diminished) access to the single market. All for the privilege of being poorer and having fewer rights for British citizens. But hey, if you can con people into voting Leave then you can con them into supporting the Brexit "Party".

    1. If you live in Kensington you can still vote Brexit. Vote for a hard Brexit with Brexit Buchan.

  8. It all depends whether you want to be part of the dream of Macron, Verhofstadt and the clique whose ambition is to build an enormous, all encompassing federalised superstate. Farage has done a fantastic job of hammering home the corruption of an uncontrolled EU. The sooner we are out the better

    Can anyone imagine a FTSE company being run by a drunk?
    Well, the EU may not be a FTSE company....it's vastly more powerful-but it's certainly run by a semi functioning alcoholic.
