The news of an unofficial alliance between the EDP and EFP is hardly surprising given their national secretary is keen on merging parties. You will not see the EDP trumpeting this alliance because it will prove once and for all they are liars and willing to lie to their members. This issue was brought up some time ago when I was a member and was given assurances by the most senior people within the EDP that no talks would take place between the two. It would now seem that the whole hierarchy of the EDP lied to members. The whole story was played out on the COSG forum at the time for those who remember it.
It is interesting that Englander 1st says he has
nothing to distance himself from. He should have qualified that statement because it seems to me that he sees no distance between the EDP and EFP. Has he the same agenda as the EFP? Does he agree with the political philosophy of the EFP? As a leading EDP member, could he explain this alliance to the general public, and confirm or deny he, the EDP and the EFP are in harmony with regard to policies? Does Englander 1st support the repatriation policies of the EFP?
The EDP were warned at the time by many people that their flirtation with the EFP could have serious repercussions for the party, I think it is time the truth be told so that members of the EDP can decide if they wish to remain members of a party that might have far right tendencies.
We know what the EFP stand for, which is of course their right whether anyone likes it or not. Neither should their right to exist be disputed. Its policies will live or die according to the wishes of the electorate. What is ridiculous is the EDPs moral stance on civic nationalism, yet willing to jump into bed with a party that is known for its far right policies with regard to foreigners in England.
I really don't know what the EDP stand for. I don't even think THEY know what they stand for. Having worked with many of their "leading lights", I can honestly say they are among the most woolly-headed people I have ever known.
