Mr. Paul Nuttall MEP, a UKIP member of the European Parliament, on the 14 November 2010 sent me an email stating that UKIP has given support to the pledge to leave the EU, and stating that my name is being added to the pledge, as I had signed the UKIP petition online in early 2010 for Britain to hold a referendum to leave the EU.
So UKIP is not the only particiapnt in the pledge, but is certainly among those who are behind it.
The email gave me the possibility to opt out of having my name included, but of-course I did not follow up on that option. Shortly later the pledge office asked me to send a copy of an email to any people I thought might like to sign the online petition.
I sent a copy to Vic in early December.
So the news about the pledge for a referendum on the EU is not new to the chairman of UKIP Dover and Deal, who was not informed directly by Mr. Farage but modestly by a local person, who also would have distributed leaflets in Dover as only volunteer.
May-be these humble origins of the knowledge about the EU pledge did not fit in!
Or may-be the fact that I was first informed and not the chairman of UKIP Dover and Deal.
