Every one should be made to read the bit about "Ken's Lies"

Some good policies there. Shame he uses the old "Say No" message rather than something positive like " Say Yes to Independence!"

I agree. It is well worth a read. 'Ken' Fib-ingstone's well known lie about not getting rid of the popular Routemaster London buses is a particular disgrace.

I hope that UKIP will do everything possible to publicise this page of Mr. Batten's London Mayoral election 2008 website:

Something like....
Say Yes to Independence, and No to Livingstone?
Sounds OK.

I think it is a pretty good website. London is a hard audience to play too, because it is so diverse.

Targeting Red Ken is the right strategy. Everything smaller parties fo, should be aimed at making Londoners realise what a tosser the man is.

Design wise the website is very weak, it looks incredibly amateur and more like a 5 minute job in something like Frontpage. Things like the ridiculously low resolution satellite image on the immigration page are inexcusable.

A great politican and candidate like Gerard Batten, who has some very good policies, deserves a website that actually gives off a professional image. In it's current state I can't see people taking it seriously.

The content is excellent - 'professional image' no big deal.

I agree with you.
