News release: New Party to stand in Haltemprice & Howden by-election

The New Party announced today that David Pinder will fight the Haltemprice and Howden by-election as its candidate.  It will use the contest to offer the electorate an alternative to the spin-driven policies which have cost us our prosperity, our society and our respect.

David Pinder:

"David Davis struck a chord when he called for the power of the state to be curtailed. However, as a back bench Tory MP he will be virtually powerless. If we are to roll back the state and return to traditional British values, then we must be brave enough to confront the problems which have caused our decline."

The New Party proposes:
  • low, fair and simple taxation
  • funding the individual to access the best education and healthcare possible
  • trusting people to control their own communities
  • stimulating the economy by reducing the burden on business
  • stimulating democracy by reducing the power of the EU over our lives.
These simple measures would provide a much needed antidote to the destruction wrought by New Labour. They are policies which David Davis might have adopted, if he had become the Tory leader.  However, David Cameron has abandoned visionary policies, along with Mr. Davis, in his unprincipled quest for power.

If the people of Haltemprice and Howden return David Pinder to the House of Commons, they will have sent a clear signal that they are no longer willing to tolerate an uninterrupted flow of spin from cheapskate political parties.

David Pinder:
"Power has alternated between the Conservative and Labour parties since 1922.  It is time that there was a new party for Britain which is prepared to put the good of the country before vocal minority interests."
