British Democracy Forum - View Single Post - Tory rebel Bob Spink becomes Ukip's first MP !!!!

If it is true that Mr. Bob Spink MP has joined UKIP then it makes his constituency of Castle Point (Canvey Island in south Essex) the number one UKIP target seat at the next General Election and the party, will no doubt, make every effort to encourage as many UKIP members as it can to travel to Canvey Island to canvass and leaflet.

I would expect Mr. Spink MP to be invited to appear in the media (television, radio and newspapers) more than he has done before if he has joined UKIP. If he is now in UKIP then I would like to see him speak on BBC 1 Question Time and on other programmes too, of course.

As well as admirably opposing the vile EU, Mr. Spink has very sound views on defending the lives of unborn children (i.e. he is opposed to the horror that is abortion).

There is more news which pro-EU David Cameron (who insulted UKIP in a radio interview in April 2006) will not welcome: in today's Guardian it is revealed that he is less popular with voters than is his party (an ICM poll reveals) and that the Conservative poll lead of 13% is now down to 5% with the London Mayoral Elections to be held in only days.

The projected fall in support for the Cameron-Conservatives also comes with a Parliamentary By-Election at Crewe-Nantwich (Labour majority 7078) due in early Summer (following the sad loss of popular eurosceptic Labour MP Mrs. Gwyneth Dunwoody). If Labour retain Crewe-Nantwich it will be a boost for Gordon Brown.
