Subject: RE: BS: Whither now England?
You know, it isn't fair to say UKIP have no policies other than immigration.

I'm not sure those who voted for them want;

A 33% flat tax rate on everything you earn.

Fox hunting legalised.

Reducing the sentencing criteria for cruelty to animals.

Opting out of Human Rights.

Bars and restaurants allowing smoking.

Married gay couples being told their marriage is now illegal.

I haven't managed to find much about losing the stock market, losing 50% of export markets, losing multinational companies who provide jobs here as a gateway to Euro markets, employee rights, NHS...

Of course, regarding immigration, leaving Europe may prevent hitherto legitimate immigration from EU countries but illegal immigrants? Err.. It just means they land on our shores rather than Italy and Spain. Euro cooperation on borders wouldn't apply. The French holding camp at their end of the tunnel? Gone.

Be careful what you wish for. Akenaton is licking his chops over this, and if he's happy, just remember that earlier today he called gay families a mad social experiment on an Adjacent thread.
