Ex-Lib Dem man launches video in support of rival party

(National Liberal) in run up to MAGNA CARTA Day (June 15th)!

New National Secretary of the National Liberal Party, Glen Maney (professional comedian, actor and ex-Liberal Democrat activist), has launched a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Rro5tuax8k) explaining why our liberties are under threat, why our way of life is worth preserving and his support for a ‘Green’ future. He is asking viewers to join or donate to his new party.

Dubbed a Moneybomb (in homage to Ron Paul’s supporters in the USA) it will be launched on the 15th June – Magna Carta* Day, which is a symbolic day of liberty.

TAKING LIBERTIES…….

Glen Maney, an recent defector from the LDs because of their ‘sell-out’ on policy, believes there is an ever increasing encroachment upon our civil liberties and individual freedoms. The phrase an ‘Englishman’s home is his castle’ is more than just a quaint phrase. It reflects an historic view that a Government’s writ largely remained outside our ‘ramparts’ and did not extend to personal affairs. In reality this has broken down with increasing attempts to intrude into our ‘private lives’ or ‘private views’ (should they not conform to the PC of the day).

Technology, whilst a ‘liberating’ force for many, is also being used to monitor us all. CCTV, DNA, Tracking devices, and communication eavesdropping and monitoring, are just a sample of the developments that will make it increasingly easier for any future Government to turn 1984 into a reality. National Liberals would like to see the creation of a Civil Liberties Minister who would act as a watchdog on state and private activity

The National Liberal Party under the leadership of Glen Maney will continue to expose the steady encroachment of our individual freedoms, civil liberties and way of life. Whilst the main political topics of the day; the economy, immigration, Europe and education presently hold the attention of political parties and the media we believe that concern over loss of civil liberties will one day hold everyone’s attention.

* This is the first recorded document where a King, previously ruling under a ‘Divine Right’, accepted that his ‘subjects’ had rights, including the right not to be gaoled without trial.

National Liberal Party (NLP) www.nationalliberal.org

The National Liberals are a (national) Liberal party in the UK that believes that the personal liberty of a nation’s citizens is paramount whilst accepting that this freedom is best preserved within the framework of a democratic nation state. A National Liberal therefore views democracy and patriotism as two sides of the same coin. They call this ‘National Liberalism’. It presently believes that personal liberties are under threat from a Big Brother state and Independence by interfering bureaucracies like the EU.

United Peoples Party (UPP) www.unitedpeoplesparty.org.uk

The United People’s Party is a political party in the UK that works to combine the ideals of nationalism with those of equality and tolerance, fighting for the freedoms of the individual and promoting national unity. This is a party for all the people of Britain, regardless of faith, colour, sexuality, disability or origin. Together, united under one banner, we will change this country for the better.

Keith Low (right) campaigning in Eastleigh today with the NLP National Secretary (David Durant)

“PUNISH CHRIS HUHNE!”

Nominations closed today (20th April) in the Parliamentary seat of Eastleigh, Hampshire (and elsewhere). Apart from the usual suspects the National Liberal Party (NLP) is standing a candidate (Keith Low) with the express aim of unseating Chris Huhne!

Keith Low launched his campaign in Eastleigh Town Centre at the same time by greeting shoppers while supporters delivered thousands of leaflets in nearby streets explaining why the NLP were standing and in particular the betrayal of Liberal voters over Europe by Chris Huhne.

Keith Low said “Liberals, in contrast to Labour and Conservatives, like to portray their principles as honest. Chris Huhne amongst other Liberal Democrats (LD) betrayed that honesty by reneging on his party’s promise to support a referendum on the EU Constitution (Lisbon Treaty). We aim to punish Chris Huhne by helping unseat him as an MP.

He added “Unfortunately the LDs no longer value British Independence. It wasn’t always that way of course and there are many Liberals of old who would turn in their graves to see their party behave in this way. This campaign is just the first of many by the National Liberals to ‘reclaim Liberalism’ and bring it back to its patriotic roots!”

The NLP will be delivering an election address to every household in Eastleigh asking voters to turn their back on Chris Huhne by, at best, voting for Keith Low in protest or, at worst, by staying at home. Copies will be sent out to interested parties soon.
