I WENT to a newly-formed Newport UKIP branch meeting recently.

Mr David Rowlands (SE Wales branch) chaired the meeting which I found most interesting and one point did stick in my mind. UKIP wants to retain our Sovereignity and Unity but the EU aims to get division by regions in all the EU countries, which will inevitably weaken them and thereby easier to control.

I did wonder why our country was being broken up into the various regions and what for? Whilst remembering the old slogan: United we stand, divided we fall.

Is that what we want for our children and grandchildren?
