John Peter Edwards's policies

Statement to voters

Reform UK have great policies that would immediately have a positive effect on everyone's income.

Full statement

Raising the tax threshold to £20,000 would immediately help those in low-paid employment. Reducing VAT on energy bills and reducing fuel duty would lower inflation, thereby benefiting both consumers and businesses.

Lowering corporation tax from the record high 25% would attract foreign investment and manufacturing to the UK. Future employment prospects would be more certain, unlike now. These policies will stimulate growth and make the country more prosperous.

The UK needs a workable immigration system such as other modern countries operate to enable us to choose those that would make a contribution to our nation. Having valid health insurance and employment skills to enter the UK would be just two requirements.

I am fully behind our party's stance over illegal migration and the plan to stop the boats and take the occupants of those boats, back to France. The Conservatives wont stop the boats. Labour have agreed with Brussels, to fly migrants into the UK from the EU.

I support reducing foreign aid and redirecting that money to help rebuild public services that have been decimated through underfunding.

Reforming the NHS means redistributing NHS finances to enable the training and retaining of doctors. Doing away with those wasteful management posts listed as diversity and equality officers, would leave more cash for patient care. Reform sees everyone as one people in one nation, regardless of ethnicity, colour or religion. Abolishing degree entry for nurses would attract more people into the profession.

Our country needs an affordable integrated transport system if we are to reduce congestion on our roads and combat subsequent pollution. Petrol and diesel vehicles should be retained until viable alternatives are ready.

Consecutive Tory governments have reduced our armed forces to a dangerous level, unable to respond to overseas threats. Reform UK is committed to rebuilding our armed forces.

Britain needs Reform UK to make Britain a great place to live and work in again.
