Main Issues

International Minimum Wage Could Protect British Jobs

Britain should work with other wealthy countries to establish an international minimum wage for all the workers of the world.  Suggested international minimum wage: ￡2 per hour, this should not undercut the British minimum wage of ￡5.80 per hour for workers aged 22 years and older

Enviroment

Doubtful Greenhouse theories should not form government policies, rather we should all work to stop the loss of Rainforest, sensitive wildlife habitat, and reduce  pollution by an energy policy that includes renewable energy.

Legalise Cannabis

I believe that the laws regarding cannabis usage are wrong, whether for use or supply or cultivation.  As cannabis about as dangerous as alcohol or tobacco (which are not safe drugs), it makes no sense to prosecute and lock people away for supplying or using it.

Right to Referenda

I believe that the British people should have the right to vote in a public referendum, on each and every constitutional change.  This would include such changes as, giving more powers to Brussels, or giving convicted criminals, serving a jail sentence, the right to vote.
