Battle for Democracy

Thursday 25th March 2010. 57 Marina St Leonards. 7pm.

Date Place and Time of the only Democratic debate to be held in Hastings for this election.

The only chance for the people of Hastings to have ALL SIX of the candidates in the same place at the same time, to answer any question put to them by the people that matter - YOU the voter.

Due to be present were the three 'Main' parties plus the English Democrats, UK Independent Party & the British National Party.

Unfortunately, the unrepresentative Unite Against Fascists UAF have decided that it is not right to allow anybody to talk to the BNP and instructed their lapdog politicians not to attend. Consequently our Labour MP Michael Foster has done as he has been ordered and withdrawn saying that although the BNP have the right to speak, he 'doesn't have to speak to them'.

The other very good friend of the extreme left UAF, Nick Parry of the Lib Dems and also Amber Rudd of the Tories have both withdrawn saying that although they disagree with Michael, they also will not attend.

Apparently the people of Hastings - that's the same people that you all want to 'Represent' Foster, Parry and Rudd - are not important enough to you to bother to attend. Well they are important enough to me. I will be there, ready to answer ANY question that the PEOPLE want to throw at me. I will not lie to them, I will tell the truth. If they don't want to hear what I have to so, so be it, but I reckon that they will.

It will not be any easy evening as the UAF have said that they will do what they can to disrupt the meeting and they will be gathering from about 6pm, with whistles, drums and trumpets. Clearly 'Free Speech' is OK as long as you say what they want you to say.

I am asking for as much support as possible for this meeting, whether you are English Democrat or not. It is important to demonstrate to these thugs that Democracy is important and will win through in the end.

Please show your support for Democracy and come to this meeting.
