I agree with you British Conservatism.

Essex - and particulary South Essex (Basildon, Thurrock, Southend/Rochford, Canvey Island) as well as Clacton - are strongly eurosceptic.

Having an MP at Castle Point (Canvey Island) will also boost the UKIP profile throughout South and East Essex and in that part of Essex currently inside Greater London (Romford, Havering and Barking-Dagenham).
