Would be nice to pay less tax, albeit it not convinced it should be at the expense of suffering a UKIP government!
Clearly a strategy to woo the Labour vote that's for sure.What struck a chord for me this morning is the proposal to cut the 40% tax rate. Whilst that's great for those within it, I don't see how that can be funded. Mind it's better than the flat rate tax they once peddled.They have a brand that is easy to resonate with for many people and that's understandable. They probably have a big opportunity actually in the labour vote rather than Tory.

Must be me but all of those policies I agree with
Save £55m a day in membership fees by leaving the EU and give British workers first crack at the 800,000 jobs we currently advertise to EU workers.
QuoteSave £55m a day in membership fees by leaving the EU and give British workers first crack at the 800,000 jobs we currently advertise to EU workers. This policy could be bloody dangerous! Say theres position for a doctor at the local hospital. A british man and a french man aplpy for the position. The frenchman has 10 more years experience, lower salary expectations and a better track record under his belt. The job goes to the British man, however, because he is British.WTF?
Question for Farage.Over the past few years, you have claimed that if we left the EU, we could still trade with the EU, like Switzerland does. But you also want us to unilaterally withdraw from EU agreements on freedom of movement, so that we can limit EU immigration.What do you make of the case of Switzerland then? They voted in February to abrogate the agreement that they had with the EU on freedom of movement. The EU, as a direct result, is currently withdrawing or re-evaluating a whole host of trade agreements with Switzerland. From Switzerland being included in a pan-European energy market, to the involvement of Swiss academic institutions (which are some of the very best in the world) in the Euro 80billion pot of pan-European research funding.You reckon we can leave the EU, stop immigration and there will be no consequences except that we'll be richer? Give us a shout when you finally join us on Planet Earth.

I dare say the Swiss have factored in any possibilities like this, it's a VERY efficient country and envy of most of the EU. I dare say the only loser there is the EU, come back when you have fact and figures of the Swiss being at a disadvantage of their freedom from the EU
Ok then, they don't have to pay 55 million a day membership fee
BoomstickUKIP are in cloud cuckoo land. There are 500 million people in the EU, all working to a common set of rules, which include freedom of movement.
