The EDP will seek referendum authorisation to decide this country’s future relationship with the E.U. That referendum should include the option of leaving the EU and joining the European Free Trade Association, EFTA, whose countries have a free trade agreement with the EU.

Just get us out NOW.... |
Good find UKIPMAN, more evidence of the treachery behing the facade. |
Yes, it's a rubbish symbol, if only because it is ambiguous and can convey the wrong impression. It seems to be someone's bright idea of somehow embellishing a long winded statement of policy which latter, despite its unnecessary version of EU history, still omits to express the huge amount of opposition amongst EDP members to continued EU membership.
Even so, it is intemperate for MKP to use expressions such as "the treachery behind the facade". It suggests more of what is undesirable about about the UKIP than what is welcome. Whatever wild assertions are made about the EDP (which, it has to be said, occupies no significant public positions), surely it is appreciated that the real enemy is elsewhere, as I attempted to point out above.
I suppose one might attempt to cast the EDP as some kind of trojan horse, but even this is not really sustainable and, therefore, not credible!
You may accuse the EDP of bringing about a situation which you oppose - unjustifiably in my opinion - but we often think that you are your own worst enemies, and more likely to do so yourselves by aiming your fire at us. All I can say to is the transfer of members from one party to another seems to be only one way at the moment: out of UKIP and frequently to the EDP. Perhaps the kind of extreme and unwarrantedly hostile attitudes to be seen here have something to do with this feature?
