• William Hague for Leader
    I do not believe we have any credible candidates for Prime Minister that can handle the negotiations with the EU in our current circumstances.Otherwise we are going to end up with Boris, Gove or May , based on political expediency rather than knowledge ,ability and skills.

  • Commit to a referendum on the revised terms of our relationship with the EU
    During the referendum on Britain's EU membership, both sides argued with great passion and urgency over what the future would hold if Britain were to keep or discard its EU membership. Given that many disputed claims were made on both sides over the consequences and opportunities of Brexit, more important than the decision to leave the EU, is the decision over what relationship remains with the EU. Knowing how consequential the new relationship with the EU will be for communities across Britain - in terms of trade access, rights to live and work on the continent, or which social consumer and environmental standards emerge at the end of Article 50 negotiations - we ask that these terms of this revised relationship be put to a majority vote of the British people. To not seek the consent of the British people on the terms our revised relationship will undermine the democratic basis on which the Brexit vote was made, with far-reaching consequences for the future of our democratic practices and culture.

  • Nigel Farage: call to apologise for "without a single bullet being fired"
    Last week Jo Cox MP was gunned down after her surgery. Bullets were indeed fired in the lead up to this vote. His comments are disgusting and completely disrespectful to the fact Jo cox mp was shot and stabbed to death during the political campaign http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/eu-referendum-nigel-farage-branded-shameful-for-claiming-victory-without-a-single-bullet-being-fired-a7099211.html

  • Call for Early General Election
    With the news of our elected departure from the European Union and the resignation intent of current PM David Cameron, I believe that an early general election is vital. There are many ways to implement this decision, and - having demanded more political control - the people deserve the right to choose the way forward, and who leads it. The quicker we call this, the quicker it can be decided and we can begin the serious job of negotiating a fair exit from the EU and restoring faith in a seemingly divided country. Under the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act an early general election can be called if a motion (as worded in section 2(2) of the Act) that there shall be an early parliamentary general election is passed by the House of Commons with at least two thirds in favour of the motion.

  • Keep the promise of £350 million for our NHS
    Nigel Farage and Leave campaigners promised to invest in our NHS - but this morning it looks like they're trying to wriggle out of it. They shouldn't be allowed to make promises they can't keep. Our NHS has been cash strapped for years. NHS staff are working so hard and it's crumbling around them. Now we have an opportunity to make the 'Leave' campaigners promise to put the £350 million saved from the EU into the NHS. Today, half the country is rejoicing, half the country is despairing. But the NHS unites us all. We need to hold them to their promise of £350 million a week for our NHS.

  • The UK demands a General Election in 2016
    At such a pivotal moment in history the UK electorate needs to give its sovereign authority to a new government to chart our future course during Brexit negotiations. David Cameron has announced his intention to step down as Prime Minister by the Conservative Party conference in October. Whatever the outcome in this internal process of selecting a new leader, this person, and their colleagues, will be significantly different from the Conservative Party that was elected last year.

  • Call for a general election following the resignation of David Cameron.
    The Conservatives are no longer the party which was elected by a very narrow margin in 2015. Boris Johnson and Michael Gove do not have a mandate to lead the country simply by virtue of being on the winning side. We need a democratically elected government for a new and challenging phase of our country's history.

  • Expand the powers of the Electoral Commission against misinformation
    After a closely fought contest, and the final result which is beyond contention, we must confront the prospect that a portion of the referendum campaigning was based on misinformation, and sometimes outright lying. This petition seeks to draw attention to this, given that the tactics used in this referendum on both sides, such as scaremongering, will more than likely be utilised again, and are damaging to the democratic character of this country. We ask that powers against these be expanded from its current form: “While we have regulatory duties relating to campaign spending, including in relation to political advertising/election material, we have very few powers to deal with the content of material published by candidates and parties, or their general conduct. In most cases we will not be able to deal with such complaints, which should instead be made directly to the party or candidate responsible for the material.” http://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/complaints

  • EFDC HIGHWAYS
    The presently neglected state of roads and footpaths is a danger to all classes of road users. Pedestrians run the constant risk of tripping on eroded or damaged paths. Holes and other defects in roads are a very serious threat to cyclists and motorcyclists, and motorists are sustaining regular damage to wheels, tyres, and suspension. In the present climate of budget constraints it is right and proper for those responsible for causing damage to pay the costs of repairs, otherwise those costs will be added to the already stretched cost of maintenance.
