A few reasons why you should reconsider voting for UKIP: 1) They wish to remove the UK from the jurisdiction of the EU court of human rights. Yeah, UKIP wants the UK not to have to abide by laws that protect fundamental human rights and freedoms. 2) No to political correctness- basically theyd like to create a platform where racist/homophobic/islamaphobic statements are no longer frowned upon. They say it stifles free speech; I say not having it segregates society. 3) Their entire immigration policy is based on fear and intolerance. Immigrants put pressure on the healthcare system- Nope, the elderly put pressure on the healthcare system and arguably, the NHS wouldnt function without immigrants. Thats just one example - there are more. 4) Their policies are based on idealisms, not realisms. They want lower taxes but more police on the streets, improved roads. Fair enough - but wheres that money going to come from? This problem exists with most parties to be fair, i.e. they say they want to fix everything, but sometimes the how isnt discernible. 5) Their immigration policy will see an increase in homelessness and crimes committed by immigrants. Immigrants must financially support themselves for 5 years before receiving state help. Example: A migrant worker works in the UK for 2 years, brings his family here, things are looking good. Company he works for gets made redundant, can no longer afford things, is not entitled to benefits or any state help. Begins stealing to provide for his family, or ends up on the streets, unable to get a job or even return to his home nation. Just a few (adapted from The Student Room)
