Dr Nicholas Wood is the United Kingdom Independence Party candidate in the Runnymede & Weybridge constituency on Thursday 4th July. 

For years, all the mainstream political parties have consistently let you down - and given the chance, they will do the exact same, all over again. And the worst thing about this, it’s always at your expense. 

Use this election and your vote to punish them.

Forget tactical voting or voting for the lesser of two evils. Vote for a party that best represents your views and send a message to the professional political class and their fawning acolytes in the mainstream media. 

My policies include:

• Supporting the NHS and we are opposed to privatisation; however, reforms are needed.
• Better social care for children and the elderly.
• More police on the streets not in patrol cars; full funding for the police and fire services. 
• A referendum on capital and corporal punishment, a key UKIP policy; criminal violence has got out of hand.
• Reforming the Civil Service - exists to serve the people who pay its wages, not to subvert elected government.
• Tax cuts, but cuts must be made to public expenditure first; too much money is wasted.
• No more squandering of money overseas; taxpayers’ money to be spent in Britain.
• Put local people first for housing and services – UKIP have campaigned on these points since the 1990s.
• Hold referenda on major issues.
• Protect the countryside - I promise to vote against building on the greenbelt, but on ex-industrial land (’brown field’) instead.
• End the war on motorists – the many recent fine schemes are mainly revenue earning scams for the government.
• Fix the umpteen potholes on roads, pavements, paths (I know, I ride a bicycle to work daily).
• Installing live complaint forms on local council, civil service, and parliament websites so problems reported are visible, no matter if the Labour-Liberal-Conservative blob hates complaints being seen.
• Immediately renovating the hundreds of miles of cycling paths built in the 1930s but left overgrown since.
• Forcing state spending to prioritise key areas – e.g. roads, schools, maintenance of state-owned buildings, social care; but not, for example, property speculation, foreign language translation services.
• No transgender campaigning permitted in primary schools.
• UKIP opposing non-stun slaughter and ban live exports of animals – issues that UKIP have long campaigned for.
• Guaranteeing the right to free speech, as per the first amendment in the USA and the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990; decades of near-identical Lab-Lib-Con trick governments have refused to do this.
• Withdrawing from (and cease all UK funding to)
• The European Court of Human Rights
• The European Court of Justice
• The United Nations Educational, Social, and Cultural Organisation
• The European Convention on Human Rights
• Etc.
• Stopping discrimination against baby girls by introducing legislation to make it a criminal offense to undertake sex-selective abortion.
• Lowering the current gestational time-limit for abortions.
