STOP PUNISHING BRITAIN’S PENSIONERS!!

At a time when Savings are being eroded by low interest rates, and pressure groups are describing the financial situation of our elderly at its worst its been in “decades”, the government have been pilling further pressure on the elderly rather than assisting them.

Britain’s Pensioners are viewed as easy targets by the government, and successive governments, and it does seem that pensioners are being punished for saving wisely and prospering from the property boom.

Dot Gibson, the General Secretary of The National Pensioners Convention, had this to say:

“There is a myth that pensioners have been excluded from austerity measures in the past but this is just not true. Pensioners have not been cosseted or protected by any measures. They are being hit hard.”

Even before the budget, pensioners were struggling with various different financial circumstances. It is a fact that rising inflation hit’s the elderly harder than most duly because they are on fixed incomes and they can never hold hope that their income will catch up with rising prices. Also doesn’t help that pensioners spend most of their income on the main drivers of inflation; Food, gas and electric.

The government seemed to ignore what experts have been saying and have done very little to assist the elderly, if anything at all. Financial experts have said that since January 2008 the cost of living for the over 55s has increased 5 per cent faster than the official inflation rate. What this means in real terms is, the average person over the age of 55 is £907 a year worse off. And since last September, the cost of living in later life has increased further by an extra £30 each month.

While this is going on, the current climate of low interest rates, it is meaning savings are being eroded in real terms as inflation out paces earnings in most bank accounts.

Many held vain hopes that Mr Osborne’s first full Budget would bring some relief to the elderly, however this is far from the truth. In fact, following the budget, we are to see Winter Fuel Allowance payments cut. Disgustingly and obviously deliberately to avoid scrutiny, this policy to cut Winter Fuel Allowance was only mentioned in Small print and not announced in Parliament.

With the empty claims that we are all in this together from the Lib-CON coalition, among so many other questions for various cuts in other sectors, a question we must ask is; Why is it there is gonna be £100 taken off Winter Fuel Allowance for the oldest members of our society at a time when fuel bills are rising and winter deaths amongst older people are a national scandal? Yet the Government still finds billions of pounds to send to nations like Pakistan in “foreign aid”. Yet the government can find houses and give thousands in benefits to asylum seekers and immigrants, who have never worked a day of their life and have not paid a penny in taxes, yet pensioners who have, are being punished.

The National Front firmly believe in Charity beginning at home and looking after our elderly. We campaign for better treatment of our elderly, and would put in place policies that would insure that Pensioners are well looked after.

TAXPAYER PAYING FOR INTERPRETERS SO IMMIGRANTS CAN BECOME “BRITISH” CITIZENS.

Yes. The British public is being forced to pay hundreds of thousands of pounds to pay for interpreters for immigrants who cannot speak English, so that they can obtain British passports. This growing cost to the taxpayer for interpreters makes a bloody mockery to the Governments pledge that migrants wanting to settle in the UK must first demonstrate that they can speak English.

According to the governments pledge by the time newcomers are applying for citizenship they would have already passed a citizenship test and are supposed to at least be able to answer basic questions in English. But translators are still needed for some when they attend the face-to-face interviews.

More than a quarter of a million pounds of YOUR money has been spend on such pointless services by the Identity and Passport Services (IPS) last year.

In the face-to-face interviews, applicants are questioned for 20 minutes on personal information such as bank accounts and past addresses. Most applicants have already lived in the country for about five years and yet they still need interpreters.

The fact is this, these people have no right to a British citizenship. You can only be British if your ancestors are of Scottish, English, Walsh, or Northern Irish heritage. You cannot just come to Britain and decide your British, and it takes more than just being born in Britain. If I was born in China, by no stretch of the imagination could I be classed as Chinese.

We have to reclaim our identity. The British racial heritage is one to be celebrated not given away, let alone for the taxpayer to subsidise the loss of our identity.
THE NATIONAL FRONT’S POLICY ON IMMIGRATION.
The National Front believes that the world contains a rich diversity of races and consequent cultures. We believe in the preservation of these races. As each race has evolved it has developed its own social structures, its own customs and its own culture. These are different for each race and have been built up to suit the character of each separate race.

In the case of Britain the National Front upholds the wish of the majority of British people for Britain to remain a white country, with customs and a culture which have been developed to suit our character. Consequently the National Front would halt all non-white immigration into Britain and introduce a policy of phased and humane repatriation of all coloured people currently resident here. Such a policy would be expected to extend over 10-15 years and its completion would thus depend on the recurrent election of successive NF governments.

The National Front believes that this is the only way to halt the steadily rising racial tension and violence that is becoming part of everyday life in modern Britain.

In regards to white immigration, this would only be allowed where there are particular reasons such as the possession of particular skills or in the case of political refugees. Until the problem of unemployment is solved, the NF would seek to keep such immigration to a minimum.

BRITAIN’S NEW PAPERWORK SYSTEM IS MAJOR SECURITY CONCERN.

An immigration officer who spent 17 years checking visas at Heathrow, has claimed that the new paperwork system for allowing temporary entry for visitors is a major concern. Mike Whiting- a retired chief immigration officer with over 30 years experience at the UK Immigration Service- has said that the cost cutting within the new UK Border Force means the loss of vital face-to-face interview with visa applications, resulting in an “open door” immigration policy.

He said “ By losing personal interviews you are losing the personal touch. The system is much more open to abuse now when dealing only with documents in countries where it is easy to obtain forgeries. In those days when people with visas arrived at a port or airport an immigration officer still questioned them. But nowadays the emphasis is not on having a second bite of the cherry unless someone really stands out. The emphasis is to get them through as quickly.”

This state of affairs is unacceptable. Any Tom Dick or Harry could waltz into our country to abuse the British Benefit system. This is a great example of Lib-Lab-Con’s treason against the British people, by allowing anyone to walk in, whether they be terrorists, or here to abuse the benefit system. The National Front would stop all immigration and start a policy of phased and humane repatriation. The National Front recognises that Britain is a small country with limited space, and limited resources, we recognise that with a random mixture of different cultures, races ect in one country causes racial tensions, social discord, and will eventually lead to the White people of these lands to become a minority.

STOP IMMIGRATION< START REPATRIATION- VOTE NATIONAL FRONT

THE EUROPEAN CONSTITUTION AND YOU

There is an endless list of why Britain should cut all ties with the European Parliament. If Britain doesn’t, then the British people will loose their sovereignty. The fact that the EU is doing everything in its power to force the sinister European Constitution onto the British public is a clear sign of the EU’s ambition of becoming a Superstate, in which they wish Britain to be a part of. We must resist this tyrannical, foreign body, otherwise we will become a mere state in the United States of Europe, and have no control over our nation.

The European Constitution will only have adverse effects for Britain. I have outlined a few of the issues that we would face under European rule.

1. The European Constitution would make it harder to fight crime.

The Constitutional Treaty would give the EU considerable power over crime, policing and our Law Courts. This sinister treaty would mean that that EU judges would gain power over justice and policing. Under the constitution, the European Court of Justice would become the highest court in the land and would also mean that a substantial amount of Britain’s laws would be created in Brussels; which is a huge transfer of our national sovereignty, as the government have admitted.

Under EU law, it would become illegal to try someone twice for the same crime. This would mean that criminals like Billy Dunlop would be walking the streets. In case you didn’t know; Billy Dunlop was successfully convicted of murdering Julie Hogg when new evidence came to light 15 years after he was acquitted.

The Constitutional Treaty also states that the severity of penalties should not be disproportionate to the criminal offence. This would undermine the discretion of British judges to keep infamous killers like Rosemary West in prison for life.

The treaty would allow the EU police force, Europol, to conduct investigations on British soil. This has worrying implications, because unlike the British police forces, Europol officers are largely unaccountable. They are completely immune to prosecution for acts performed in the course of their duties, and they are also not compelled to testify in court. Europol also has its own problems with fraud, for example, its offices were raided by Belgium police as part of a fraud investigation.

The European Prosecutor Eurojust, will also get sweeping new powers. A spokesman for Eurojust- Johannes Thuy- confirmed that “ we would compel the British police to make a prosecution.”

2. The European Constitution would give the EU power over our foreign policy and defence.

If the constitution does get accepted, it would mean that there will be an EU foreign Minister, an EU Diplomatic Service, and the constitution would give the right to the EU to sign treaties on our behalf.

The Spanish Prime Minister, Jose Zapatero, predicts that “ we will undoubtedly see European embassies in the world, not ones from each country, with European diplomats and a European foreign service. We will see Europe with a single voice in security matters. We will have a single voice within NATO”. At first the British Government opposed many of these proposals, but being weak kneed it soon gave in.

The Constitutional Treaty also would set up a “structured cooperation” group, in which the UK will be forced to be apart of. The treaty states that members would have to achieve “ approved objectives concerning the level of investment expenditure on defence equipment and bring their defence apparatus into line with each other”. In a European Federalists research paper they noted that “Structured Co-operation in the field of defence is a significant step toward a Single European Army”.
German Chancellor Angela Merkal has also expressed a want for a single European Army: “ Within the EU itself, we will have to move closer to establishing a common European army”.

Italian Prime Minister Romano Prodi has said “ When I was talking about the European army, I was not joking. If you don’t want to call it a European army, don’t call it a European army. You can call it “Margaret”, you can call it “Mary Anne”, you can call it any name”.

The Spanish Prime Minister Jose Zapatero said that “ Europe must believe that it can be in 20 years the most important world power! The constitution is an important step in this direction”.

What all this means in practice is that while our troops are being undermined in Afghanistan and Iraq with poor equipment and a want for just the basic equipment, the EU wants to divert billions of pounds to wasteful projects such as the Galileo satellite System- all because of its desire to play the role of world “Superpower”. Put aside the fact that our troops should not even be in Afghanistan or Iraq, the above is bad for our armed forces.

3. The Constitution would mean that we would have less control over Asylum Seekers and immigrants.

Under the Constitution Treaty, the European Court of Justice would gain a considerably amount of new powers to determine the “rights” of Asylum seekers and immigrants to reside in Britain. The Government have admitted that with the introduction of the Constitution Treaty would come more expensive Asylum and immigration appeals. In November 2006 Geoff Hoon said: “There is clearly a risk that adding what is in effect an avenue of appeal at a very early stage in the process might be an opportunity of further complicating of further complicating our existing asylum and immigration processes.”

The Charter of Fundamental Right, which is legally binding under the sinister constitution, would mean that Britain would not be able to deport terror suspects and other foreign criminals. This would mean, on top of all the other immigrants draining tax payers money away, we would have to pay for these criminals, and we would have to subsidize asylum seekers who are waiting for their case to be heard. It currently takes two years before the European Court of Justice even begins to hear an appeal.

Under the constitution there will be a new “burden sharing” requirement, which means that British taxpayers, who are already burdened with immigrants, will have to pay for immigrants in other countries.

Noone can disagree that under the Constitutional Treaty the European Court of Justice would end up making what is essentially political decisions. It wouldn’t matter if the entire British public disagreed with what the EU were doing, it would be impossible to overturn the rulings.

4. The Constitutional Treaty would mean the EU had more control over our public services.

HEALTH AND EDUCATION
The Constitutional treaty means that the EU would have complete control over the British Health service, and the British people would have no right to reject legislation in this area. This would mean that the EU would regulate medical standards. A new “right to preventive healthcare2 would open the NHS up to influx of costly ambulance-chasing lawsuits. The constitution would end the right to reject legislation concerning trade agreements in public services like health and education. In other words, our Parliament would no longer have a say over deals which will determine how these services are managed.

TRANSPORT: Under the constitution, the British people would loss the right to reject legislation concerning transport. Jacques Barrot, EU Transport Commissioner, recently revealed that the EU wants to run EU wide road pricing operations, but as the AA point out, this would lead to a huge loss of privacy.

The above is only a few of the issues that Britain face if the UK accepts the wretched Constitutional Treaty, and in doing so accept the tyrannical rule of the European Union. Below I have outlined some of the policies of the National front which relate to the above issues.

European Union.

The National Front supports the right of self-determination for all European nations and demands that right for Britain. It seeks a Europe where each nation is friendly to all others but where no nation seeks to dominate or interfere in the affairs of another. Consequently the NF would withdraw Britain from the European Union.
The NF would encourage the development of cultural and sporting links between other European nations. It would encourage the cultural diversity between the nations of Europe and resist attempts to eliminate this. It totally opposes the monetary and political merging of the separate nations into a super-state.

Defence
The protection of the British people at home and throughout the world is the responsibility of the government. It is for this purpose (and this purpose alone) that we require our armed forces, which have such a proud record in defending our nation. No British politician wants a war but it is a sad fact that Britain must always be prepared for a whole range of eventualities including the less likely ones. This is particularly true when the Middle East is in a period of change and uncertainty.

There is no realistic defence without a basic defence strategy. The National Front's defence strategy is that Britain must maintain a defence capability able to inflict massive damage on any other countries in the world should they act as an aggressor. The only other requirement is the ability of our forces to defeat any internal terrorist threat. The equipment with which our forces are armed must be designed and built in the UK and must remain solely under the control of this country.

The National Front totally opposes the use of British troops by the United Nations to carry out their political adventures. It also opposes any attempt to form a European army under foreign control and will withdraw Britain from NATO.

Race and immigration
The National Front believes that the world contains a rich diversity of races and consequent cultures. We believe in the preservation of these races. As each race has evolved it has developed its own social structures, its own customs and its own culture. These are different for each race and have been built up to suit the character of each separate race.

In the case of Britain the National Front upholds the wish of the majority of British people for Britain to remain a white country, with customs and a culture which have been developed to suit our character. Consequently the National Front would halt all non-white immigration into Britain and introduce a policy of phased and humane repatriation of all coloured people currently resident here. Such a policy would be expected to extend over 10-15 years and its completion would thus depend on the recurrent election of successive NF governments.

The National Front believes that this is the only way to halt the steadily rising racial tension and violence that is becoming part of everyday life in modern Britain.

In regards to white immigration, this would only be allowed where there are particular reasons such as the possession of particular skills or in the case of political refugees. Until the problem of unemployment is solved, the NF would seek to keep such immigration to a minimum

NHS
The National Front would provide an entirely free National Health Service and this would include the abolition of prescription charges. When people fall ill they are likely to be losing money in any case and we can see no justification in prescription charges. However, checks on doctors' prescriptions would be made to make sure the Health Service is not wasting money.

Whilst the NF expects all parts of the NHS to use money efficiently and carefully, a National Front government would make available sufficient funds to eliminate all waiting lists for medically needed operations and treatments. This will take priority over other items of expenditure.

The National Front believes that the NHS should be made available to all foreign visitors who fall ill during their stay, however this system is being abused by people who arrive in this country fully aware of an existing health condition - this would be stopped. The NF is opposed to abortion on principle and would only sanction one where a mother has conceived as a result of rape, where medical opinion asserts that there is a genuine and serious danger to the health or life of the mother if the pregnancy is allowed to continue, or where medical opinion asserts that the foetus is seriously damaged or malformed. All such abortions are dependent on the mother's consent. Under a National Front government the days of abortion being used as a form of post-coital contraception will end.

FREEDOM
For the last thousand years the British people have fought, and sometimes died, to preserve our basic freedoms. The National Front wholeheartedly believes that these freedoms must be maintained. Consequently the National Front believes in the introduction of a bill of rights to guarantee basic freedoms including:

Equal and free access to justice
Freedom of speech and publication and distribution of printed matter
Freedom of access to publicly owned assembly facilities
Freedom for orderly demonstrations in public
The right to vote and stand for election for public office without onerous financial or other qualifications
Freedom from arbitrary arrest

Those are a few of our policies which I think are relevant here.

Moving on.

WHAT WILL THE SWINDON NF DO TO HELP STOP THE EUROPEAN CONSTITUTION BEING ACCEPTED IN BRITAIN.
The National Front, up and down the country, will continue to campaign against EU dictatorship in Britain. However on a local level I have started a campaign. Its an attempt to make central Government stick to their promise and give the British people a referendum. And everyone of you can help. In actual fact, I need everyone of you to help. Whether you live in Swindon or not, it doesn’t matter. As long as you have a voice than you can help.

Basically, I have found a way in which to bring about a referendum in a Parish council which poses the question: “ should there be a national referendum on Britain’s membership in the EU?” More Councils- district councils, parish councils ect- that hold a referendum and with more “yes” votes, the more likely that Brown will hold a referendum.

I will give anyone who is willing to try and make a difference all the guidance and advice they will need- everything from lists of legislation that gives them the right to hold a referendum, to how you can insure you will get a good turn out.

If you are interested please email me at Swindon@yahoo.co.uk, and we will win this fight together.

BRITAIN FIRST- VOTE NATIONAL FRONT

WHILE BRITAIN SUFFERS THROUGH A RECESSION, GOVERNMENT INCREASES FOREIGN AID!

Everyday we here about how unemployment is out of control (reaching almost 3 million unemployed) and that the NHS is well and truly a mess. However, instead of putting taxpayer’s money back into the country, they are giving millions in international aid to assorted countries around the globe.

Let’s take a quick and brief look at the latest Department of International Development (DFID) scandal-

1. They will be increasing the commitment to mothers-to-be in Malawi. International Secretary Douglas Alexander announced at an Oxfam event at the Glasgow University that there will be a £9 million increase in funding for a health programme in Malawi to tackle maternal mortality problems. This figure brings the total UK commitment to Health care in Malawi to £109 million from 2005 to 2011, which makes the UK the world’s largest donor in the country.
2. A £300 million commitment to businesses in developing countries which are struggling to survive due to the economic crisis. This will be down through the World Bank’s new initiative called Global Trade Liquidly Programme (GTLP), which was set up to support small businesses by attempting to address the trade finance issue in developing countries. The UK government, through its financial institution CDC, intends to make a contribution of up to £300 million to the GTLP, according to Mr Alexander.
3. Also a £16 million fund to provide healthcare in Sierra Leone and in particular the government of Sierra Leone’s Reproductive and Child Health programme (RCH). The scheme will provide training for midwives, clinics and access to drugs.
4. And in Vietnam alone we pay £228 million for a range of different programmes.

You can check out the full list at http://www.dfid.gov.uk/

On top of this list, the government has committed at least £50 million of YOUR money to loans, through the Strategic Climate Funds, in support of Climate Technology in China.

While our Government fund the world’s underdeveloped nations, we Britain’s are suffering and plagued with child poverty and unemployment continues to grow unabated among native Britons.

The National Front wish to halt all foreign aid until all poverty and deprivation has been removed from our shores. We will then reform how foreign aid is distributed. We would not give such extortionate amounts to foreign countries. Instead we would give aid in the form of goods and services, not cash. We will deliver all aid under strict supervision, military supervision if require. Any form of corruption will be the trigger to end our help and may lead to sanctions.

Budget doubles for ministers to wine and dine; and are paying the bill

I found this article on the Daily Mail site this morning.... I wont comment on it, because it speaks for it self....


The budget for ministers' parties has been quietly increased by 50 per cent - and almost £140,000 spent on an exclusive wine cellar, according to a claim made by the Conservatives.

The unit, based in the Foreign Office, delivers 'official hospitality for all government ministers and Permanent Secretary-level officials'.

Last year, it delivered 208 functions at an average cost of £2,227 per event. Since 1997, it has cost £7.1million to run.

The fund also oversees the administration of the Government wine cellar, and the maintenance of stocks of linen, china, silver and glassware.

Parliamentary questions have also revealed that last year, £137,460 was spent on new stock for the cellar – a rise of 26 per cent on the previous year.

They also show that an 'advisory committee on the purchase of wine', made up of senior officials, meets four times a year at a cost of £10,000.

The unit has recently purchased vintage and non-vintage Champagne, red Bordeaux, white and red Burgundy, white Loire, sweet white Bordeaux, red Spanish, red Italian, red Argentinean, red Australian, red Chilean, red New Zealand, red US, and English still and sparkling white and rosé wines.

Mr Shapps said: 'This investigation reveals a previously unknown Whitehall committee paid to advise government departments which wine they should buy.

'At a time of austerity and fast rising taxes on ordinary families, a 52 per cent increase in the Government's own hospitality budget is simply too much to swallow.'


The Government wine cellar supplies everything from dinners at Chequers, the Prime Minister's country residence, to departmental receptions.


At any one time there are around 39,000 bottles stashed away in the official wine cellar, which is held in the vaults of Lancaster House, just off the Mall in London.


Its exact contents are a closely guarded secret, though it is said to offer 180 individual clarets alone

Our children deserve more!

In our ever decaying world, our people are being put last time and time again. In every aspect of our society we are being pushed to the side for the benefit of either some minority or for the gain of some greedy authority.

And when i say every aspect i mean every aspect. Our children are not omitted from the vile treatment by those in power. For instance, every local authority can home every non-British un-wanted guest that happens to invade our land, while, as of 2004, over 1 million white children in Britain are homeless or in housing which is either grossly overcrowded or unfit for human habitation.

In Britain our children are being treated with repulsion by our "leaders"- Unicef in Feburary 2007 released a very telling report stating that the uk was the worst place for children to grow up in the developed world.

Family breakdown, the rise in drug abuse and the constant fear of violence has placed British kids 21st out of 21 on the happiness table. Now when you consider the fat cats at the top of the table make Britain the forth wealthiest nation in the world.... it makes you think doesn't it.

The BBC said: " Labour came to power pledging to promote education, education, education and to slash teen pregnancies and risky behaviour of the young. Unicef paints a picture of failure on all fronts." While Robert Whelan of Civitas said: " I have seen the evidence piling up for 20 years that married families are better for children than single parents or step families. The question is how long the Government can close their eyes to this reality"

OH MR WHELAN THEY HAVE SEEN THE EVIDENCE THEY JUST DON'T CARE.

With the rise in child poverty and the constant feeling of alienation the children are becoming depressed, and there are some worring statistics ...... Like 1 in 12 British children self-harm and according to childline some of the children self harming was as young as 7. And, as of April 2005 the Depression Alliance stated that 1 in 5 children were reported as needing help with depression, and a staggering 28% of these thought seriously about suicide. Now the proof of the Governments total disregard for our children is that in September 2004, us experts found that children on the anti-depressant Prozac have a greater chance of attempting suicide, now with this in mind, as of 2004, Prozac is the only anti-depressant allowed to be subscribed to people under 18... What The Hell?????

And we are told by the Health and Social Care Center that child obesity has doubled in the last 10 years which is not surprising when you consider that between 1992 and 2005 more than 40% of England's school and community playing fields were sold and 34,000 sport pitches disappeared under concrete... This is after Labour promised that no more school playing fields will not be sold.... However as of October 2005, 2,540 school playing fields have been sold off.

Our children deserve to be treated better than this. Under the current regime they are treated like dirt. Under a National Front Government they would be treated with care and attention they need to lead happy and healthy life's.
