Former Tory Candidate Endorses Horton

I am pleased to endorse Toby Horton for Parliament. He is an excellent candidate standing on a strong and broad platform.

I was the Tory Candidate for Tottenham in the last general election, and previously was both a Conservative on Haringey Council and Chairman of my local Conservative Association. Like Toby I have become fed up with the direction the Party has taken, and have now joined UKIP.

If I wanted to support a social or liberal democratic group there are already two well established parties. If I wanted to support environmental extremists there is a third. But why support Cameron? He is losing the Tory base without convincing anyone else. His Ealing candidate even donates money to the Labour Party.

Toby has rightly emphasised the issue of immigration for this small island. The Tory and Labour policy is to be nasty to Australians, Russians, and Indians; the Tories even want to prohibit Brits from bringing in 20 year old American wives. This is the result of both parties being absurdly generous elsewhere: they want to give 25 million Romanians and 80 million Turks completely free and unimpeded rights to live and work in Britain. A more balanced policy outside the EU would be farer and better for all.

I urge you to vote for Toby Horton.

William MacDougall
2005 Conservative Parliamentary Candidate, Tottenham
