MICHAEL ANTHONY – JOYCE UKIP

-

Health. The NHS is currently flounderin­g with too many drains on its resources, to tackle this problem we need to invest in more nurses and doctors and cut back on expensive senior management. Agency staff are regularly drafted in, however, the wages paid to these staff are well above the rates paid to regular workers, again draining much needed resources. Education: Teachers are regularly abused by pupils and parents alike and a lack of respect along with frustratio­n at increasing target SAT’s levels is driving many to leave the profession. UKIP has promised to abolish Key Stage 1 SAT’s tests as seven years old is far too young to be tested, putting unnecessar­y pressure on children and teachers. Economy: After years of recession, financial instabilit­y and zero hour contracts it is time to stop sending vast amounts of money abroad and concentrat­e on making Britain great again. Charity should begin at home and no child should grow up in poverty in a western civilizati­on. Jobs: More jobs would be created if we regained control of our fishing boundaries by bringing back the 200-mile offshore limit instead of allowing foreign vessels to deplete our fish stocks, as an island this should be one of our most valuable assets worth £6.8 billion but again we roll over to Europe. Brexit: Now we are facing Brexit we need to negotiate a fair deal for Britain, where we can still trade within Europe without having to always live by rules imposed on us by Europe. Law and Order: Britain should be united under one law and one law only for everyone living here and it should uphold British values providing equal rights for all.
