The post you are reporting:
Barry,We do not see any Conservative policys,even said on your own blog,"All we get is running the reds down"
You have not said anything about the "The Local Referndum the UKIP party would like to see. The policy is called "Direct Democracy"I think is good and will be talking about it over the next few days.
The process would go as follows.
(1)Electors in a constituency are unhappy with a particular decision.
(2) A petition is formed which must be signed by 5%of the electorate in the constituency.
(3) If the 5% threshold is reached then the council is required by law to hold a referendum within 30days on that subject.
(4)If the referendum is successful then the council must abide by the result of thr referendum.
Last night in my post I told you about acase going on at this time, please read it if you have not.
What couldn,t you do with direct democracy?Well, not much.
You couldn,t,though, use the petition system to force a referendum on an area of governance that was outside the control of the people you were petitioning-so you couldn,t for example, use a local referendum to demand a change in the abortion laws.You could, however, use it to stop your local NHS Trust closing down a maternity ward ,for example.
Lot more to come later on.I have a meeting and then to the Town Hall I hope to see lots of you there I will have some of my team with me+The UKIP man from Fokestone,and he is alot better talker than me.
