Tories Rule out UKIP Pact – 10 Reasons why that is Good News for UKIP

It was not UKIP that called for a pact but a Tory MP who wears the silliest syrup on this planet – Michael Fabricant. But Downing Street has today ruled out a pact between the Tories and UKIP.

That is good news for UKIP. I took me about one minute to think of 10 very good reasons why I’d be less likely to vote UKIP if they aligned themselves with the Conservative Party.

Before I start, if anyone in Islington Social Services is reading this, I am not a UKIP member or even a loyal supporter so there is no need to deny me access to my daughter on the grounds that she is half Welsh and so may be damaged by my views.

Ten Good Reasons

1. The leader of the Conservative party lied about giving us a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty – he cannot be trusted on Europe
2. The Conservative party naively thinks it can negotiate a better deal in Europe. It fails to accept the clear evidence that we are better off out.
3. Drawn from the political classes vast numbers of Tory MPs have fiddled their expenses, flipped second homes and are exactly the sort of folk, ordinary plebs like you and me all despise. Why hop into bed with an ugly bird?
4. The Conservative party is not addressing the fact that the UK is going bust by cutting Government spending. It is increasing it. The size of the UK national debt will double during this Parliament. Why align yourself with a high tax/big state party?
5. The Conservatives are so determined to be seen as “nice” they insist on pissing away £11 billion a year on aid to despots, dictators and bent officials.
6. The Conservative Party still believes in Global Warming and thus forces us to pay every higher power prices to subsidise crackpot alternative energy schemes
7. The Conservative Party continues to support illiberal laws and legislation that restrict free speech on the internet ( and T-shirts) and most Tory MPs want greater curbs on a free press
8. The Conservative party has done nothing to change daft EU Human Rights legislation that allows that chap Abu Qatada to stay in the UK at our expense.
9. The Conservative Party has allowed referenda on all sorts of matters which have resulted in the creation and enlargement of vast new layers of totally un-needed Government. Does UKIP wish to align itself with a big state party?
10. The conservative party is led by David Cameron who believes in nothing but ultimately supports the Evil Empire. He is a true heir to Ted Heath.

Have I missed much out? I suspect I have. But since I see little difference between Cameron’s Conservatives and the Labour Party except the rate at which they would bankrupt Britain I can see no reason why UKIP would want to tie up with the Tories. Can you?
