British National Party Launches its European Election Manifesto
The manifesto deals with the BNP’s main election pledges, which are as follows:
- We will campaign for Britain to withdraw from the EU.
- BNP MEPs will always vote in the European Parliament in the best interests of Britain and the British people.
- We will seek to expose and oppose EU corruption, incompetence, fraud and waste.
- We will work closely with MEPs from
other countries that share our aims and beliefs, in order to be more
effective and successful.
- We will maintain the highest
standards of probity and integrity. In this regard, all BNP MEP
candidates have signed a pledge to donate ten percent of their pre-tax
salary to local cultural groups and activities in their regions. This
would mean payments to groups celebrating our national saints’ days.
- We should have British control over
British borders so as to stop unlimited and uncontrolled immigration
and reduce crime and terrorism.
- Britain, not the EU, should decide who lives in this country.
- Anyone not born in Britain who commits a crime here should be deported.
- British citizens should only be
extradited where they have committed a genuine offence abroad and there
is sufficient evidence against them.
- Our armed forces should be under British control and serve British interests.
- We must keep the Pound and control over our own economy.
- We oppose the UK’s payment to the EU - next year this will cost British taxpayers around £9 billion.
- We support the ability to trade with other countries when this is done fairly and on equal terms.
- ‘British jobs for British workers’: employers should be obliged to provide jobs and training to British workers.
- We need to eliminate unnecessary and bureaucratic EU regulations which cost British businesses around £75 billion per year.
- Britain must withdraw from the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) which costs each family around £450 per year.
- Britain must withdraw from the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP).
- Britain must have exclusive control over its territorial waters.
- Britain must retain control over its oil and gas supplies.
- We should restore the use of Britain’s traditional weights and measures.
- The British parliament and British courts should be independent of any foreign body.
- The government should stop the
closure of Post Offices, especially in rural areas, and there should be
no privatisation of this public service.
