Is staggers me that somebody would not only work for free but would pay a donation over 200,000. Meanwhile Nigel takes loads of money out of the business. If you want to stop Reform and Farage... Join us at STOPREFORM.ORG.UK Who Is Zia Yusuf, And Why Does He Get So Much Airtime?

Precisely. Nigel did that out of the goodness of his heart. stopreform.org.uk

Foreign based crypto billionaire Harborne said he expected nothing in return for the £5m "gift" he gave to Nige. So, what a lovely surprise it must have been to find out that Nige rapidly arranged a meeting with the Bank of England to argue for minimal regulation of crypto currencies.

STOP REFORM. SACK FARAGE. Clacton can lead the fightback. Let’s build the BIGGEST RECALL TEAM IN HISTORY: 50,000 people ready to act. Read what Reform stands for. Read the risks. Then join us. STOPREFORM.ORG.UK #StopReform #SackFarage #Clacton

REFORM IS NOT THE REVOLUTION. It is the establishment in a new colour. Look at who it sends to Parliament: five former Conservative MPs, one former Conservative member and one former Conservative parliamentary candidate. New badge. Familiar political class. #stopreform #reform #clacton

Bias Media report on two candidates and ignore the rest. In the short run-up to the election, media companies are supposed to be impartial and unbiased. 12 candidates at the Hustings yesterday about no coverage. #mediabias #press #news #politics #clacton

A little bit of satire maybe but this is genuinely what I've heard from a few people today. They feel that Nigel has not focused on them or local issues for the last two years and so him quitting a few weeks hasn't made a difference. Martyn OBrien Independent Candidate

Immigration has become a divisive subject. But we do need to reduce immigration in order to improve opportunities for our young adults and the unemployed. People coming by boats are small part of the problem, albeit a very visual one, skilled worker visa abuse is a big issue.

An MP should meet the people of their constituency regularly. How else can they expect to understand local problems and challenges or what the people would like them to represent in Parliament? Weekly surgeries are the answer, and this should be required by all MPs nationwide.

This is easily the biggest issue that people in Clacton mentioned to me. Infrequent buses, difficulty get into the hospital in Colchester and expensive taxis. I want to look at the solutions to these issues and we'll work with the council if elected.

Are teenagers and young adults meet better opportunities and training in order to get to work and to be part of the solution rather than being berated on media and TV. We need to stop the zero hour contracts, and black market employment, and encourage companies to give experience opportunities.

We have a major housing issue across the UK, including Clacton. Over 2000 people on the waiting list for social housing and many more cannot afford even the so-called affordable housing. We need to ring fence and safeguard homes for people born and raised locally.

As I'm running for the first time to be the MP for Clacton. My first focus will be on HealthCare, Care and Disability Support. I think this is important as everybody knows somebody who's elderly or disabled, especially in Clacton as it has the most elderly population in Western Europe.
