2019: UKIP Manifesto: Britain First, Last, and Always.

A Vision Beyond Brexit.

The United Kingdom Independence Party stands alone in this election as the only party that can both achieve Brexit and bring Britain into a new era of independence and sovereignty. Unlike the Liberal Democrats or the Conservatives, UKIP has historically stood for Britain's interests over Brussels. Unlike the Labor Party, we offer not a return to the tired socialist stagnation of 'seventies Britain but rather a pass to prosperity. Unlike the regionalists who seek to breakup Britain, UKIP seeks to better Britain rather than break it up. And unlike the Brexit breakaway group, UKIP has the actual ability to deliver on it's promise.

The British people recognize what Westminster does not; that our politics are broken. As the driving force beyond the movement which manifested Brexit as the ballot-box, UKIP offers a bold agenda to return Britain to her rightful status as a sovereign and independent actor on the world stage. The UKIP provides an alternative to the status quo to all British voters, whether they be ex Tories, former Liberals, Labour refugees, or members of no party all. We seek to bring in the disaffected, the disgusted, and the marginalized - many of whom have never voted before Brexit at all - to form a united front to bring Britain out of Europe and into the future.

A Party of Principles, Not Personalities.

Unlike the Brexit Party, which has become a home to fringe far-right figures united around an agenda of trolling and snarky irony, the United Kingdom Independence Party actually can bring about Brexit, and we have the record to prove it. Many of Nuttal's claims, from UKIP being a "personality cult" to his claiming to have been a survivor of the Hillsborough disaster, are both regrettable and likewise embarrassing. The United Kingdom Independence firmly disavows the support of any parasitic elements within the broader Brexit movement, such as street toughs like Tommy Robinson or ex members of the National Front. This party is a home for those who seek to better Britain; anyone seeking a home for hate need not apply. The claims made by Mr. Nuttall are merely the verbalized symptoms of a serial liar.

Our Agenda.

We voted. We won. And we'll deliver.

Those calling for a second referendum are simply anti-democratic elements who are out of touch with the working class. The United Kingdom Independence Party firmly commits ourselves against any such attempt by the political class to enforce their will on the British people. Likewise, UKIP condemns such a proposed "re-vote" as an attack on the integrity of our elections, which could pose a serious and dangerous precedent.

UKIP will not support anything less than Brexit; it is the policy of this party that "Brexit means Brexit," deal or no deal. Unlike the other major parties represented in parliament, only UKIP alone represents those who truly desire an independent United Kingdom. But we have a vision beyond Brexit, the only such party to offer a plan that is based around the reality that the United Kingdom will be leaving the European Union.

So how do we do that?

• Reject Article 50 and repeal the European Communities Act of 1972, meaning Brexit will be executed under our laws and not theirs.
• If Europe seeks a deal, then Europe must come to our table rather and deal with us on our own terms.
• Prevent British armed forces from any and all participation in the EU Defense scheme.
• Implement legislation cancelling all future EU elections in the UK; MEPs from Britain hold no legitimate reason to continue on in Brussels, and all UKIP MEPs will in the future vote against all legislation within the European Parliament that strengthens Brussels control over Europe until the process of Brexit is entirely completed.

A Vote for UKIP is a vote for responsible immigration policies.

The rise of Jihadist terrorism within Europe and inside the United Kingdom, from Nice to Manchester, from Paris to Cologne, are the results of the EU's open borders policies. The United Kingdom Independence Party is wholly committed to bringing British borders under British control, to ensure that those who seek to do harm to the British people are kept out while those who seek to better Britain are allowed in. We are not afraid of any allegations that will undoubtedly be unfurled against UKIP during this election - we are a party that welcomes all people who want British control of British laws, and will continue to fight against the globalist establishment and their media propagandist fellow travelers.

• Hire 4,000 new staff at the Border Agency.
• Establish a Migrant Control Commission to regulate the influx of new arrivals.
• Implement an Australian style "points system" and work-permit plan.
• Maintain our current arrangement with the Republic of Ireland; otherwise repeal and replace all agreements which threaten British control over British borders.
• Continue efforts to curtail terrorism from both foreign and domestic radicals of all stripes.

Quality Healthcare for All Citizens.

Though there are a number of hangups within the NHS, the United Kingdom Independence Party is resolutely in favor of retaining and reforming the NHS to ensure that all citizens and residents of the United Kingdom are receiving quality care.

• Eliminate the Medical School cap to ensure that 10,000 new GPs can be hired by the NHS.
• Hire 25,000 more nurses and a further 5,000 midwifes to ensure the best maternity care for new mothers and newborn infants.
• Spend an additional eleven billion pounds on the NHS, particularly in regards to hiring additional staff and medical experts.

A Foreign Policy that puts Britain First.

The failures of Labour in Iraq and the Tories in Libya shows that further British intervention in overseas conflicts will result in only further influxes of displaced migrants. A UKIP government will fight for British sovereignty alone, and will not use our military offensively against other nations who do not cow to the agenda of Brussels. A vote for UKIP is a vote for both strength and peace.

• Withdrawal British forces from the European Defense Pact.
• Reject neo-conservatism and embrace the truth: Britain cannot bomb people into democracy.
• Stand up to Russian interference in British domestic squabbles while continuing to reach out to Moscow in the pursuit of better relations and greater cooperation on security concerns. A Britain that is respected abroad is a Britain that is strong and safe.
• Retain British territory integrity from the Falklands to Gibraltar.

Jobs and Opportunity for Britain.

The Great Recession was a serious setback for working families, many of whom are still struggling to make ends meet over a decade after the financial crisis. We are committed to lowering the tax burden on working class people and on job creators, and will similarly address Britain's ballooning debt.

• Create a Coastal Enterprise Zone to continue economic development in particularly blighted and forgotten communities. Through tax cuts, repeal of over burdensome regulation, and austere spending directed at British foreign aid and defense programs, these programs and many more can be funded fully.
• Raise the personal allowance to 13,500 pounds, ensuring that all British citizens will have the ability to meet their own needs before being forced to pay their taxes.
• Close all loopholes used by corporations to dodge paying their fair share in taxes.
• Oppose any "divorce settlement" with Europe; not a single pound will be surrendered to Brussels in exchange for Brexit.
