I READ that the European Union wants to purge the Queen from our passports.

The UK Independence Party might be a minority party in many people'seyes, but as for giving the public the truth of what is going on in Brussels and what it has cost the average British family over the last 34 years.

People I have spoken to years ago have said to me that things will not change - our British status will continue, but children have been taught to be good Europeans and not British history in the schools.

When the public start to complain about living in a police state with more and more restrictions, think back to the late 1980s when the forerunner of UKIP - the Anti-Federalist League, the Referendum Party and the other Anti-EU organisations told you that your country would eventually be taken over - remember?
