Anjem Choudray

I have not written an issue of my blog for a while now , but feel this is something I need to wrote down for people to read.

Now Anjem Choudray - He is a man who speaks out against Democracy and a man who loves Islam and wants Shariah to be introduced into this country and it looks like he hates everything that is connected to Great Britain past , present and the future.

I see him or something to do with him almost daily in the newspapers or on face book or twitter , but think about this and consider this.
If like i am doing here by dedicating a issue of my blog to him , we are giving him coverage for him to spew his hatred and spread his beliefs and by doing this we are giving him power.

He only has the power because we give it to him , if we ignore his hate and spew he would not be half the so called man he is.
Admittedly he would still be around and talking and preaching his brand of hate with the army of little followers he has , but maybe if we tried to ignore him more and gave him less inches in the press or less time and space on the social networking sites he may not be as big a problem as he is.

I am not saying here that he will go away because he will not and I am not saying he will vanish if we ignore him because he will not and he does need to be opposed and stood up to.
Things like the Shariah control zone which him and his MAC followers and the hate preachers want has to be opposed , but maybe its time to think about what we are doing and make a step change.
Now this is just my idea but I am sure there are people out there with bigger and better ideas - but if we are going to talk about him and his followers and the people of the MAC then take it off of the main pages and take it behind closed doors.
Private messages , Skype , text messages , email to name a few , we have the power and we hold the power to his strenght and we also hold the power to his downfall nd those who follow him.

Look at it this way if we stop , take a step back and look at what he does and says and take him down a few pegs , but do it with style and do it with elegance do not get involved in tit for tat events , jus remove him.
If he issues a statement or posts something on his website/face book/MAC page or Twitter have a look at i and read it so you , I , we , all of us know what is going on and then if it is offensive report it to the required people , if it is highly debatable then report it to the police or the ISP which provides his service , after a while we will hit on something and something will be done bout it / and or him , It may take a while to do this as it is not a quick solutions b any means but we will get there.
Report things as spam or report things as offensive to the isp , not just one or to of us but a whole heap of us , The EDL had at my last look just under 90,000 people on it , then we have the MFE , EDP , ENA and many others who all have their own followers and aims.

We still need to go out and oppose events like the Breaking the silence , the bill posting and when he goes to places like the American embassy to burn our flags and make people like Bin Laden martyrs as it is always good to be seen out , so they know we are still around , but again look at what we do and how we do it.

When we went to the American embassy to oppose him when he was praying with his followers after Bin Laden was removed we were kept too far away to do anything , so maybe a group appears and does what they do and a few , not so well known with out flags or colour hang around take pictures , record images and then go away and have a look and see what is inflammatory or offensive and report it.
Maybe we even have somewhere a good friendly solicitor who may help or a law student or person who can help out a friendly policeman who can say yes this can be reported , this cant etc etc.

Step change and game plan - work openly but with plans taken away from the public eye , we know that the police and others watch what people do on here and we know that they work against us.
All you have to do is look at the March for England event last Saturday when for no reason they were removed from a pub in London for no other reason than they wanted to do it , or maybe it was because they were to close to an Islamic conference and taken to Bromley , for not doing anything wrong.
We know that we are fighting a battle that is going to be hard and the state is working against us , so lets not make it easy for them and make it as difficult as possible for them to do these things.

Remember the reasons we are doing this and just in case you have forgotten there are 2 main reasons.
The first is "for our today they gave their tomorrows" Yesterdays and today's soldiers of old and new.

The Second - We do this not for us but for our children and our children's children's freedom and right to walk the streets of England and Great Britain freely as we have done for a long long time.

Its not them its us.

The theme yesterday was leaders of England and who will unite us all.

Today i am going to move onto the current crop of people who we have running the country and those who have had a chance of running the country and failed the people quite successfully.

We have a coalition government led by Cameron and Clegg , before these we had Brown and Blair and they are all doing what appears to be the best that they possibly can to kill this country dead.

Cameron went to Pakistan and apologised for our behaviour and gave them £650 million.
Clegg has given away his sole for a seat in power - example the student fees which he said he would not back , but never stopped them being raised.
Blair lied to us time and time again and has never repented.
Brown was equally as bad as Blair and did nothing for the English side of the border , but did sign up to the Scottish claim of right.

None of these leaders has actually stopped and looked at this country and thought about what we need.
We are / were bombing Libya - Billions of £'s and £650 million to Pakistan plus the money we pay to the EU and get nothing worthwhile back in return.

So "Its not them its us"
It may not be a popular view but i have thought it so i will put it in writing.

The influx of immigration , the Tower Hamlets issue , the British Jobs for British workers which is not happening cos they go to others who work for less.
The selling off of our heritage like the attempt to sell off our national forests and to my knowledge Dover is still up for sale.
And much much more.
The people who are taking what the government are offering are only doing so because they are being allowed to do so.
Immigration is happening because the people that we elected are allowing it to happen.
The Tower Hamlets issue - the mayor with the backing from the IFE and Ken Livingston has happened because it has been allowed to happen because of the government that we have elected.
There was a list in one of today's newspapers of 14 people who are all threats to national security who will be freed before the Olympics and will not have served their sentences , I think one of them run a terrorist training camp in England somewhere and others had links to terrorism?
None of these people are going to do anything good for this country and should remain in jail for the full length of their jail term , if they are from this country they need to be watched when released , if they are not they need to be deported as soon as possible.

Right so WE , The people are allowing this to happen.

We had a chance to do something about this last year in the general election, but failed to and we elected the same sort of tripe as we did the election before and the election before that.

We had a chance this year around the country to put into councils some fresh people who are not from the status quo of Lib/Lab/Con , but again people failed in numbers to do anything - admittedly some patriots were voted in but it was few and far between.

So why do we do this to ourselves the answer is simple I don't know.

You can not blame the people who take , take , take from us if the government are offering stuff and they are taking it.
The Mayor of Tower Hamlets Rahman played the game by the rules and although some of what he did was suspect (so suspect the Labour party kicked him out) he did what he did with his supporters in a way that could not be challenged.
He now has access to a budget of £1billion which is a great deal and it is his and his aides to do with as they think suitable.

You can not blame the people who come to this country and use the NHS or claim benefits from us because they are doing it according to the laws that are in place and they are doing it well.

You can not blame the people who break the laws of the land and use the Human rights laws to stay here as it is being given to them and they are playing by the rules under the current laws.

YES I KNOW people are not happy and there is nothing we can do because it is the law of the land and it is OUR FAULT , Yes that's right it is down to us and what we are doing.

To change anything we need to change the law makers and the ways that they do it at the moment they are doing what they want when they want.
We have the people who support the patriot movement , the problem is the spilt votes when there is an election and we need to do something about it , sooner rather than later.

We have to play the game according to how the rules are written , we need to get people out of the mindset of voting for what is classed as the big 3 party's and get them to take notice of the others and get people elected who can get into the corridors of power and start to change things for the better.

Its time to get people to wake up and smell the coffee.

Its time we got our heads together as a thinking people and used our brains and got them to work for us.

The next big election to my knowledge is the GLA (greater London assembly) 2012 or the Mayoral elections - Yes Boris is there now and we know it will be a 2 horse race between him and Ken.
But we need to make sure Boris wins and Ken is kept as far away as possible from power - remember he did support the ousted Labour candidate and new mayor in Tower Hamlets Rahman and he did support the IRA in the 80's by flying black flags over the then GLC - so he should be UNELECTABLE.

So we vote for Boris but use our other votes wisely and with confidence and use them to vote for party's that will make a difference - Yes most people know I am an English Democrat and I will have my name most properly on that list of candidates , but there is also UKIP and others to elect so we need to stop and think wisely and do what is right.
Forget about the LibDems and the Labour Party , its time for them to move over and allow others some time to so what is right.

Think about it we have some time , but don't take too long - Your country needs you and we can start in London and work our way out
Planning , strategy and forward thinking.
You know it makes sense

Englands Leaders

The Scottish people had Sir William Wallace , Now they have Alex Salmond who is leading them and appears to have galvanised the people of Scotland together - not everybody will agree with this , but it is just my view.

The People of England , the English people - have many people who lead their own groups , parties or organisations.

You have many groups that want to do what is right for England and have their own goals or aims - they all have their own leadership and their own followers.

But we need ONE PERSON to come to the forefront and lead the whole of England and its people , we need ONE PERSON to come along and take us by the hand and guide us into the right direction , so that we can all stand as one people.
At the moment we have too many people who are doing their own thing , that is not maybe a bad thing because some of those people who are doing the leading are great people and they are doing what they can with the resources that they have to hand.

We have many groups and many peoples , many people belong to at least one if not more than one group English Democrats , March for England , English defence league , for England party , English shieldwall , English nationalist Association , Campaign for an English parliament , British Patriots society , UKIP , BNP - yes some of these groups look out for Britain as well as England - But they all have the same thing in common.
That thing that they all have in common is a Independent leader and followers which is great or is it , THAT'S THE QUESTION , Is it great.

We need a person to step forward and stand up and be there to join us all together.
A person who is so great that everybody turns and says they are the leader of England , They are the person i am going to follow and i will dedicate my support to that person and what they wish to achieve

That person would need to be magnetic and magical so that when those who are guaranteed to attack them , they would just shrug their shoulders and move on.
They would have to be charismatic , they would need to know how to play the media and to get people from all groups to work together.

It would be a tough job and just like the England football manager there would be people waiting in the wings to rip them to shreds at the first chance that they got.

The Question is where are we going to find this person that will represent the whole of England and everything that England stands for?
Have we found them already , Are they standing among us already on the many Demo's that the English Defence league take part in ?
Are they Hidden away in a party like the English Democrats , just waiting for their chance to grab the limelight ?
Are already leading a group which stands up for England and has done so for a long time and which has been around for longer than most of us realise and March for England
OR
And this is a big or is it someone who we all have no idea about and is standing around with all the ideas but just wants to worry about who murdered who in Eastenders.

Many people support what is called the English Cause - but they are all divided in some way - there are many different party's who field candidates in elections all over the country and they all take votes away from each other.

In a parliamentary election you could get 3 or 4 parties standing in the same area and they could take a couple of thousand votes between them - granted not enough to win the seat , but if people saw that people are willing to forget about their differences and unite , then there is a possibility that more people would come over and vote.

Achieving that may well mean that at a general election the English Nationalist vote (not my term) or the patriots who stood for election would possibly get voted in and could then do some good for the people of this country.

So the BIG question is where do we find this magnificent man who will front the the campaign for England?
Where do we find this truly amazing woman who will unite us all and lead us from the front?

So stand up and step forward that person - Unite as all as one and lets get England back on the road to recovery , lets step out of the European union and make our own laws and not waste any more cash on them.
Lets get ourselves out of the human rights charter so we can allow our judges to pass the right sentences for the right people.
And lets loss this politically correct nonsense where to many people worry about what they are going to say and who they are going to say it to.

Stand united - One people , One country , One law - Only one England.

THE SILENT REVOLUTION

Tomorrow is European Union day make sure that you enjoy the day as a British , English , Irish , Scottish or Welsh day insted and celebrate your own culture.

If you see an E.U flag flying , take up the mantle and if they are not flying your flag go and ask them why not , state that YES we are in the EU but not through choice and that you have never been asked if you actually want to be a person classed as a member of the European Union superstate and that they should be flying your flag as well - As if they are not it could be discrimination and that you will complain to the Equality and human rights commission.
Once you have done that go tell your friends to do the same and get a stready stream of people going to the same place and really annoy them - once you have done this contact the EHRC (Equality and human rights commission)
Link here http://www.equalityhumanrights.com/

Revolution - It is begining to happen - We have stood up to Nick Clegg and his drive to get more seats in the house of commons via the back door and said a huge NO to him in the AV vote and also in the council elections - He after all has no right to have a seat at David Camerons side in the government as he and his party came 3rd - He and his party were delt a major kicking last Thursday by the people - The people have spoken and given their verdict on him and his partys policys

The revolution took a step in the right direction when Cameron was falsed to back track on the selling off of the public forests - Remember that word Public that means me and you - the people who put them into the house of commons -They speak for you.

The Revolution continues and we need to be seen to be standing up even more than we have done in the past.
The quite revolution can have as much success as the loud revolution - they both have their places and they both have the right people in the right places doing what they know is right.

The Revolution continues with HALAL food - why cus we have the right to know what we are eating and should be allowed to make an informed choice with knowledge of knowing what we are eating - Its right and its fair - Complain to the EHRC again and tell them you want a choice and you want knowledge of what you are eating.
Also look to this page on facebook http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bycott-Halal/160347640662396 - there are other links on this page as well - fairness and eqaulity rules , one law for all.

The quite revolution continues
An English Parliment to make it equal for the people of England - The Scots have their own parliment , The Welsh and Irish have their equivlents and so should we have its right and its fair .
We should be able to make our own choices with our own MP's in our own parliment without influence from the Scots , the Welsh and the Irish MP's just like they have the ability to do in their parliments.
The Scottish Parliment on April 1st made it so the prescription charges were free to Scottish people (i have no problem with that (good luck to them)) but without our own parliment we are unable to make these laws for us , The people of England , We currently pay £7.40 per item and that can become costly if you need medication on a weekly basis and need more than one item
Link Below
http://www.thecep.org.uk./

The people of England and the people of Britain are good at being quite it is something we have always been good and - so the Quite revolution is ideal and suits people down to the ground.
Be part of the Quite revolution and take the bull by the horns.

MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD - ALL BE IT QUITELY

Is this England or is it ....

Is this England or are we in another place nowadays and nobody has told me that we all sold up and moved away ??

Yesterday , I went to Hillingdon to help with the local English Democrats elect a mayor campaign.
It was to say the least an interesting day , we did meet a few interesting people who gave us their thoughts and didn't hold back when they spoke and we also met a true character of the area , a nice man who is a friend of Cliff Dixon whom we were helping.

So the question is this England or are we .... Well to be honest I'm really not sure , i spoke or at least tried to speak with about 100 people over the course of the day , some just couldn't understand me because they just didn't speak English , One lady whom i approached actually asked her son to translate for her and the husband read ( i think he did anyway) the petition word for word and still never signed it and while he was doing that his daughter decided to run round me and use me as a buffer cushion.

The local Natwest had its own sign up and underneath it was 4 languages 3 of which were Arabic i believe and then in the corner English.
The local butcher was a Halal butcher only , no problem with Halal , but a choice of non Muslims is always nice and the butcher or the man working in the shop didn't have a proper hat on just some woolly hat on when serving the meat ?? (something wrong there).

The people in Robes , turbans and burkhas out numbered the others by many and some appeared just to scared to talk to us , for whatever reason.

Were were stared at by people who i think were simply amazed to see the England flags on our table and the English Democrat banners at the sides and it just didn't seam right that we had them up , maybe the MAC flag would have gone down a bit better ??

We were told a story by someone who is reliable that a new tower block had been built and the local council had moved mainly people in from Somalia and when meter readers had gone into the flats , they had built little fires in the middle of the main room to cook on ? they had proper ovens but choose to decimate the place and make holes to build fires , have these people no sense at all.

I always try to work for integration between people but looking at the people in this place its hard to imagine any of them wanting to integrate with the home grown people of the area.
None of them whom didn't speak English would be int rested in learning it , because the need is not there and neither is the requirement because they can live in their own little worlds and be surrounded by other people like them and know that we will make every effort to communicate with them if we need to by either having a translator around or by publishing forms and such in multiple languages so that they do have to try and learn.

I could never see them celebrating St.Georges day there and enjoying the English culture with us as they would not understand and nor would they want to.

Its not about being racist , its about being respectful of the country that you are in and learning and understanding about the people and its customs and it works both ways , we have opened our doors and allowed you to have free access to our wonderful land , now give us something back and learn from us and do not use us.

You here about communities and police and other groups working with local communities Muslim community's , black community's ,polish community's etc etc but stop , hold that thought for a minute and think about it - Instead of being separate community's why not just be one big community and work together for understanding that way we would all learn about each other , the police or whomever would not need separate liaison officers for different people ,but just one person who would be the community officer and work with everybody , it has worked before and can still work , but we all have to work.

Respect works all ways not just one way.
Understanding worked s all ways not just one way.

The first time.

Today it is January 13th , Today is my Birthday - I like to start simply by saying a huge thankyou to everyone who has either said happy birthday , sent me a card , posted on my facebook wall or texted me.
As well as being my Birthday today there is a By-election happening in Oldham and Saddleworth and i would like to wish Stephen Morris (English Democrat) and the other nationalists a great day and a good result - Hoping that the main 3 parties have a bad day at the polls.

Anyway I promised you something a bit special and hopefully this will be it.

Today is a bit special for me for another reason other than it being my birthday , Today i also celebrate "Deaf Day".
It was on this day 12 years ago that I came round out of what i was told was a light coma and the first time I think I actually realised I could not hear.
I was in hospital and I woke up to see My mum , dad , nan , aunt and 2 of my friends standing at the end of my bed looking at me - apparently i lifted my head looked at them , asked whats going on and followed that up by saying i don't seam to be able to hear anything and promptly laid back down and went back to sleep again -.

It seams very strange that about 3 months before i was working as head of security where i was and still am and was celebrating a friends birthday and Halloween at the same time with a surprise fancy dress party and to move on to that day and to find me lying in bed very ill and not able to hear.

I have to say that today i look at my hearing loss as being one of the best things that has ever happened to me , simply because of the people i met whilst going in and out of hospitals , the new me i found as to be honest the me of then was not something i look back and really like that much , I was extremely self obsessed and didn't really care for the close people around me and this was a really big wake up call.
Also sometime after I lost my hearing about 18 months or so after , i think it was I got implanted with my cochlear implant and that was and still is phenomenal to honest with you , Imagine having what is in effect a light switch on the side of your head , I get up in the morning and put this this on the side of my head and the whole world comes alive with sound , and at the end of the day or when someone is getting on your nerves or things become to much for you , you just switch it off and the world is gone again , One of the biggest bonuses is the fact that unless their is a major earthquake nothing in the world is gonna wake me up - What a result that is.

I will say here that , yes at the time i was fairly devastated i was 29 years of age and apart from when i was younger I had not really been ill that often.
I was in hospital about 3 and half weeks and I hated every minute of it , which contradicts what i have already said but the first hospital and the second hospital were different places , the second being Grays Inn road Ear , Throat and Nose hospital and the staff there are awesome to say the least.
Every step of the way from the time I went in to see them as an out patient because my dad had got fed up with me because i had not heard anything for almost 3 months right through my rehabilitaion , my selection process for my implant , to today when i visit every year or so as an out patient once again I am given the best treatment that there is.

I was told one day when the people manager came to visit me from work to see how i was getting along that if offered something never say no straight away and always leave that door ajar for as long as possible.

Many things changed for me the day i woke up I found a world Id never been inside before and never imagined or even thought about entering , It was a foreign world to me a world at the start where i was not happy and wanted out and I did everything in my power to attempt to get myself to hear , Its odd to think my Doctor and the first hospital I went to over the first few months thought that i was actually lying about being deaf and that about 5 minutes after i went into a cubicle at Grays Inn road , the doctor turned to my dad and simply said that id never hear anything again.
It was a world where id have to learn many knew things and also discover as much as i learned , the Text phone or minicom was the strangest holding conversations with people and finding a 3rd person involved was so strange and the people whom I rang when i first got it who just didn't know what to say or do cus they knew the old Ben.
Sign Language , i don't sign very well but I can do a little , understanding how to communicate with people and Lip reading which is a massive advantage , but can also get you into trouble as i have found out if you read the wrong people.
After about 7 months i could walk into a pub and stand leaning against a table and within a minute I would be able to tell you how noisy that pub was simply by the vibration on the table , the little lights on the music boxes and how people were speaking.

I found many new friends and discovered many things - I went to a place called the Link centre in Eastbourne which was for adults who had lost their hearing and they taught many things in a week , you were able to take a person with you so they could learn as well what you learnt and so they could share the experience as it was called , but to be honest I only went to shut my mum up from whinging every day about going as it would do me good and when i did go they BOTH took me to the train station and stood outside the carriage window pulling stupid faces , and I was really not happy because when I had got on the train Id seen a really nice girl and sat opposite her ,but they found it highly funny to pull these faces and embarrassed the hell out of me. (She never did speak to me)
Anyway I went to the Link centre and before hand i had been pretty down and did not really have any interest in doing anything and simply used to get up go down the stairs to the front room and watch telly and then at the end of the day go back to bed , Anytime my mum asked me to do something i moaned about it.
Coming home after that week alone as I had been to pig headed to take anybody with me and there had been 6 others there who had gone deaf for various reasons and a person with them I was a changed person , it was the first time Id been in the company of other people who could not hear , who had the same thoughts as me and the same concerns as me , these people were going through it like me and nobody could understand what they were living through , just like me.

You have to understand that going from a normal hearing person to suddenly deaf is a really life changing thing.
To talk to somebody at first because lip reading just doesn't happen over night , people used to write things down for me which often meant very long conversations.
I felt excluded from what was going on because whereas before (when i didn't want to be interested or know) Id had the choice of taking part in a conversation I would get stroppy and fly off the handle because people did nothing to include me - I forgot that not only was I living it , but my friends and my family were looking on and seeing somebody who at times could not even stand up without falling over , simply because my balance did not exist.
And oh THE NOISE , inside my head - it drove me crazy and at times it still does , The thing i could not understand the most is the noise i get inside my head various sounds from high pitch buzzing to tiny bells and this is tinnitus which i get all the time its the first thing i wake up to and the last thing i fall asleep to.
I could never understand how if i am that deaf and I am classed as profoundly deaf why I could heart or even got this noise and the doctor told me it was because my head did not understand why I could not hear and was its way of dealing with it

Every time I went out of the house at first alone for months my mum said she would stand at the door and just hope the cars would miss me as very often Id just step out because I could not hear them and she said I d stop and wobble and then lean so I did not fall over.
It would take me an hour to walk to the post box and back as i used that post box as walking exercise and wrote many letters to friends and the box is like 3 minutes away -Id meet on the way various neighbours who just happened to come out and mow their lawn or move something in their front garden when I walked past , to see if I was OK and just ponder around in case I fell over and when i got back home id find my mum in the front garden cutting some bushes back or trimming the hedge -It wasn't something I ever thought about at the time - But it was quite nice.

There was the time I was invited to a birthday party and my friend held a pub party for her and most of her friends Becuase i was find group situations very difficult to handle cus understanding what was going on was VERY hard and i was putting pressure on friends because I could not understand and also becuase they wanted to make sure I was alright.
And she held a get together at her parents house with me and 5 others where we all just sat around and played monopoly.
One of the people there was Laurence and when he arrived he sat away from me , he was crazy anyway and as the night moved on I had noticed he had been looking at me and if id stood up he'd moved away , i thought he was being polite but later in the evening something was said and he simply turned round and said he was scared of me because he did not want to end up deaf - He was lynched by the others and that was the first time id laughed since going deaf.

There were many milestones and many days I struggled big time with what was going on around me and within my head as well
A huge milestone was returning to work (only part time) a few hours a week but having a reason to get up and go out , there was also returning to the Beaver scouts (I was their leader) I'm not sure who was more worried about that the 6 or 7 year olds seeing me and knowing I could not hear or me just for the fact I knew they were being loud but heard nothing , the Implant and beyond with learning again was massive as well.
Each day now is a new day and I enjoy them all as much as possible - Today I am who you see and I hide nothing - Yes i have bed days - and some days i wished Id have stayed in bed ,but we all do.
Today and everyday I am me and that me is quite confident and quite outspoken , But i hide nothing and do what i enjoy.
There is so much more i could say but I hope this has been interesting and thank you for reading today and whoever you are have a great day.

Guest Blogger - John Hopkinson

I have today a 2nd Guest blogger of the week and i will continue to find people of interest to appear and write an article for my blog which hopefully will be enlightening and varied.

Before John's blog entry , I would like to just say a big well done to the England Cricket team on their victory last night in Australia ,Over Australia in the Ashes to secure a stunning 3 - 1 win , where they outplayed them in nearly every department.
The Victory was the first in Australia for 24 years and many records were set and many recent records were broken by the English players , one being the highest team score which was 644 runs.
I know that many people like myself stayed up to watch the cricket and i also know many people like me were very tired when they got to work this morning , but it was worth it.


Now for John Hopkinson - He describes himself as a political and community activist who supports withdrawal from the European Union and the creation of an English Parliament.

Below unadjusted and unedited is Johns Entry , Just for you.

One would have thought the time had come for the English Democrats. Growing dissatisfaction with the European Union with its ever increasing demands for funds from member countries , the euro is disarray and the unsatisfactory devolution arrangements in the United Kingdom highlighted by the student fee's issue should have people clamouring at the door to join the English Democrats. And to add to this list a growing unease of immigration and fears of Islamification the English Democrats should be breaking through to win local and national elections.

But they are not. There are a number of reasons for this. One is the English Democrats is a new party formed in 2002.
It takes time to build up momentum. The existence of Ukip makes it difficult to attract anti EU votes unless it is made clear that Ukip does not favour the creation of English Parliament which is headline policy of the English Democrats.
A further reason is the attempts by the media and the three main political parties to associate them with the BNP.
The English Democrats need to be even more specific and outspoken against racism.

In Tunbridge Wells recently an English Democrat gained 8.4% of the vote first time out , against the three main parties and Ukip. A good result, but the key was the candidate was well know locally because she had been campaigning successfully on local issues for a long time.
A common gripe is that people only see the political parties when there is an election.
What the English Democrats should be doing is getting out there and becoming known as leaders and campaigners in their local communities.


Id like to thank John for his entry and hope you have all enjoyed reading what he had to say and look forward to getting some feedback

Guest Blogger - Stephen Morris

As it says in the title this edition of my blog I have a guest blogger and that is Stephen Morris , He and his wife Valerie are both English Democrats and Stephen is currently running a campaign in the Oldham east and Saddleworth constituency for a By-Election on January 13th.

So what is below is written by Stephen Morris without being edited by me at all.

This letter has been sent out to an online hustings event:-
In 1997 after 18 years of a Tory Government the people of the UK were expecting great things from Labour , after 13 years the UK and especially England is no better off.
Remember those slogans: Labour: "Things can only get better". They didn't "No more boom or bust."
It busts "Education , Education , Education." Labour forced through tuition fees on English students , Now the Torys backed by the pledge breaking Lib Dem's with Scottish and Welsh MPs voted to increase on English students only.

When devolution was created one Nation was left out , that nation being England. Scotland , Wales and N.Ireland have a government of assembly to look after their intrests with over 17 devolved departments , But England was left out with all UK MPs deciding her policies.
We in England pay perscription charges , tuition fees , have road tolls and foundation hospitals forced onto us to name a few , whilst the Scottish and Welsh MPs still voted them on to the people of England , their MPs voted on purely English issues.
The English Democrats do not want to break up the UK , but those nations within it should be treated equally , each nation looking after its own intrests with MPs answerable to the people - Thats Democracy.

We want a free and fair education system; Our young people are our future. We would abolish tuition fees and ensure the standard of education was raised in our schools. We would ensure our history was taught as well as making sure there was a return of discipline and order.
We believe that natural resources should be used in a way that gives due consideration to the long term consequences. We preserve our countryside for future generations as it is part of our rich national heritidge and can not be replaced.

We want a referendum on our current relationship with the E.U. the people of England have never had a vote on the current arrangements where our laws and soon our taxes will be decided by the E.U. bureaucrats. We would support the withdrawl from the political process of the E.U. But advocate being part of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), in global economy we should be free to trade throughout the world and not tied to the E.U, this works for Norway and Switzerland.

We would put a stop to mass immigration , the provision of our public services works on projects of the population , if we have no control then those projections become irrelevent and those public services will show considerable strain , affecting our workers and the quality of service they provide.

We need MPs that will put England first! Not Scotland , Wales or N.Ireland or the E.U. English MPs who are commited to restoring our industry and will protect the front line public services in England and will give our children the free and fair education that they deserve.

If you read through what Stephen has said everything makes sense and i support 100%.
I would like to wish him all the best for the By-Election he is contesting and hope he gets a good result.
