Arise, King Rishi!

Neil Hamilton • 4 November 2022

Our leader's thoughts on "global puppet" Rishi...

So, it turned out to be a coronation after all. Arise King Rishi! His crown will be a crown of thorns, but it's the country which will be crucified - thanks to the policies he either formulated or enthusiastically endorsed.

First, there is the pointless but financially ruinous lockdowns, which have all-but bankrupted the country.

Then the pointless, irrational and ruinously expensive commitment to net-zero by 2050. This condemns us to shiver in the dark this winter. It also constitutes the greatest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in my lifetime.

Next, not satisfied with presiding over the UK's highest tax burden since Attlee's Labour Government in 1950, Rishi wants to increase it still further. Jeremy Hunt has revived Rishi's hike in Corporation Tax from 19% to 25%, directly impacting 5.6 million small businesses which are the life-blood of our economy. Truss's 1p cut in income tax is scrapped and he threatens another £40 billion in tax increases in a few months time. Just as we tip into economic recession!

Then there's the migration crisis - entirely of the Tory Government's own making. They do nothing whatsoever to curb armadas of illegal migrants daily plying across the Channel. Instead of being carted back to France, they are settled in hotels and given mobile phones by the laughably-named Border Force.

Numerically much greater, the Government positively welcomes a massive increase in legal immigration - a record 1.1 million residence visas were granted to non-UK nationals in the year to mid-2022. The Tories have added 4 million to the UK population through migration alone since 2010 (and those are just the ones we know about).

And then there's the crisis over freedom of speech and the cancel culture, largely stemming from the Equality Act 2010, Harriet Harperson's last gasp as a Minister. The Tories have done absolutely nothing to amend this and combat the Reign of Terror unleashed in the name of 'wokeness'. Whether it's destroying people's lives and livelihoods for lawfully expressing their opinions or destroying statues and other vestiges of our history, the Tories have been too timid to stand up for freedom of speech and diversity of opinion which lie at the heart of a free Society.

I could go on and on but this litany of betrayal by successive Tory governments is already making me clinically depressed.

Sunak just offers more of the same. He is the continuity globalist candidate. Inevitably, he used to work for Goldman Sachs and is perfectly at home amongst the Davos jet-set.

The tragedy of the latest Tory leadership election was that no candidate stood for anything remotely Tory. In the previous election, at least Badenoch and Braverman pointed in a different direction. This time, they backed Sunak. It will be Business As Usual under the latest in an apostolic succession of globalist dupes - Major, Cameron, May, Johnson.

There must be a better way and there is. UKIP made Brexit possible, even though the Tories have done nothing with it. Nothing will change under The Old Gang. We need to clear them all out. The last thing we need is another globalist puppet like Sunak.

The Father of BREXIT Dies

by Stuart Gulleford • 11 September 2024

Jeffrey Titford 24.10.1933 – 09.09.2024 Jeffrey Titford, the former Leader of the UK Independence Party and two term MEP for the East of England, has passed away, after suffering from cancer. His family announced his death on 10 th September, aged 90. Jeffrey was one of the fathers of Brexit, coming to the fore in national and international politics at a time when leaving the EU was considered unthinkable and long before it became official Conservative Party policy. A visionary and a democrat, who did not believe that EU membership provided a viable future for Britain as an independent, self-governing nation, Jeffrey Titford was elected to the European Parliament at the 1999 European Parliamentary Elections, aged 63. He was one of three UK Independence Party MEPs elected, which sent shock waves through the political world. He became Leader of the Party in 2000 and served for three years bringing stability and respectability to its campaigns. During this period, he made seventy speeches a year, travelling all over the country. He also served as interim Leader from September to November 2010, following the resignation of Lord Pearson of Rannoch, while the election of a new Leader was held. During his time in the European Parliament, he made dozens of speeches in Plenary session severely criticising the EU and particularly the level of fraud in its finances. He also extensively lobbied the European Commission and the Government in Westminster on behalf of the British fishing and farming industries. He led several delegations of fishermen to see UK Agriculture Ministers in Westminster and also took a delegation to meet the European Commissioner for Fishing in Brussels. He wrote monthly columns for the East Anglian Daily Times, the Hertfordshire Mercury and Farmers Guide and made many appearances on regional television. He also made a guest appearance on Breakfast with Frost. Jeffrey Titford’s political career began in 1970, when he became a Councillor on the Clacton Urban District Council. He ended his association with the Conservative Party in 1992, in protest over Prime Minister John Major’s signing of the Maastricht Treaty. He joined Sir James Goldsmith’s Referendum Party and, in a sign of things to come, stood in the General Election of 1997 in Harwich when he was the Party’s most successful candidate, securing almost 10 per cent of the vote and, in the process, unseating the sitting Member of Parliament. Following the death of Sir James Goldsmith, Jeffrey was invited to join the UK Independence Party (UKIP), where he established a branch in Clacton and a regional committee, which led to his successful campaign in the European Elections in 1999. He paved the way for Nigel Farage’s subsequent success in Clacton at the 2024 General Election. He was re-elected to the European Parliament in 2004, with a greatly increased share of the vote and UKIP also returned a second MEP. He retired from European Politics in 2009 and was made an Honorary Patron of the Party in 2006 and became President for Life in 2011. Life before politics Following National Service in the RAF, Jeffrey joined the family’s funeral directing business in 1956, where he had a 35 year career, during which he served for 12 years on the National Association of Funeral Director’s (NAFD) National Executive and rose to National President in 1975-76. He was instrumental in developing an official code of practice for the funeral profession, at the request of the Office of Fair Trading. He also successfully campaigned for funeral directors to have the right to sell a package funeral and carried out the first review of the practice manual for funeral directing, which led to the creation of a formal qualification for funeral directors, recognised by the NAFD. He sold the company in February 1989 and retired from the profession. An enthusiastic Rotarian, Jeffrey served as President of the Clacton and later Frinton Rotary Clubs. He also belonged to the Clacton Operatic and Clacton Dramatic Societies, taking lead roles in both companies. However, his most successful hobby was rally driving. He was a leading light in the Clacton Motor Club in the early seventies for whom he was the regional rally champion for six consecutive years. Jeffrey Titford was a devoted family man and is survived by his wife Margaret, one son, three daughters, eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
