£363,000 is a huge fine for anyone, but what was UKIP’s crime to be punished with this enormous fine. This fine was for a tiny technical slip in the paperwork.
The only purpose served by this fine is to try to weaken opposition to the Lisbon Treaty. But this will back-fire on this Labour government.
The voters were promised a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, and this fine will only stiffen the resolve of the voters, and make them hundred times more determined to have their promised referendum.
The fight-back starts here. I will send off £50 to UKIP today.
Who will follow me?
