Hi,
once again it is good to see
Nikki Sinclaire acquitting her duty rather than drag the reputation of UKIP into the gutter - as with the liar and serial fraud Derek Clarke, or dressing up as a chicken to show the gravitas of their approach to the job they were elected to do, whilst gaining double page spread publicity for racial and religious bigotry and hatred as with UKIP's one time puppet leader
Malcolm Pearson, or consorting with prostitutes as when Nigel Farage received such publicity or taking on the issues of gravitas such as Paul Nuttall with his endless tedium about failed pubs and the right to smoke etc. etc.
I note Paul Nuttall made a complete ass of himself by trying to deal with something based on knowledge and intelligence in commerce and was unsurprisingly completely wrong see
CLICK HERE - It is just this sort of ill informed and crass statement so commonplace in UKIP which sabotages any credibility they may one day build up when one knows the following FACTS:
The Directive Nuttall had commented on as a UKIP Leadership member and MEP, has been in place for over 30 years and
only applies to PLCs (publicly traded companies) – hardly the small
business he seeks to claim and might perhaps have been expected to have some grasp of.
When contacted by fellow North West MEP Chris Davies, here’s what
the Federation of Small Businesses had to say on UKIP’s blatant
stupidity and attention seeking:
It is clear that this directive only applies to PLCs and not to limited companies..
Nowadays it is hard enough for small businesses to start up and
survive without knocking confidence further.
Publishing the wrong
information is severely discouraging small businesses, especially
start-ups.
While this deters the individual business, spreading false
information could damage the recovery of our economy as a whole.
When one knows just how huge are the bribes paid from the public purse to
MEPs, by The EU, and the ready and cost free resources of research - surely it is incumbent on UKIP MEPs to at least strive for accuracy - this blog strives for accuracy with zero budget and no financial rewards - merely my own patriotic sense of duty to expose liars, cheats, frauds and the corrupt who have betrayed me and my Country!

Parliamentarians learn the ropes at Defence Academy
22 Feb 12
Last week the
Defence Academy at Shrivenham played host to twenty-five politicians and
Members of Parliament as part of the Armed Forces Parliamentary Scheme
(AFPS).

The two-day stay at the internationally-acclaimed centre of
excellence for defence study combined briefings, discussions and a few
hands-on practical demonstrations.
The parliamentarians had explained to them the role of the military
in a democracy and the MOD as a Department of State, and how the
'casualty chain' works, basically the method by which seriously injured
troops are returned to the UK.
They were also confronted with an array of weaponry including
Kalashnikovs, SA80s and Timberwolf sniper rifles, which some of them
were able to try out on the firing range.
Newcomer to the scheme, West Midlands MEP Nikki Sinclaire, said she
found it fascinating to hear from the families of Armed Forces personnel
and learn of their particular needs and challenges.
Education and health for these family members were high on her agenda
when she said 'if Jill's not happy then neither is Jack!', referring to
the importance of personnel deploying overseas being content in the
knowledge they are leaving their families in a safe and secure
environment. She added:
"It's good to hear that these issues are being addressed by local authorities."
The AFPS was founded in 1988, the brainchild of Sir Neil Thorne.
Concerned at the lack of subject knowledge displayed by MPs whilst
debating defence issues, Sir Neil, a former gunner, quickly identified
the urgent need to educate politicians and give them a clear insight
into the structure of Defence, the interface between military and
civilian personnel, and the unique workings, ethos and lifestyle of the
Armed Forces.
There was a time when the majority of standing MPs would have served
in one of the arms of the British military, but with National Service
having been phased out some fifty years ago, 'insider' knowledge of
military service fell to a sprinkling of MPs who had had a former career
in uniform.
