The problem with IWAR, and I supported them, was that they were seen as a political alliance, rather than a referendum alliance. The political figures played to larger part in my view. And the reason we didn't get a Referendum is because Nick Clegg's Lib-Dems have no bottle, and the back bencher's in Labour were so afraid of losing their seats, because Yes to a referendum, would have resulted in a no vote, and a General Election. This self protectionism in British Politics is why so many refuse to vote. We in UKIP need to get the message out to the public, vote us in and you get your referendum, if it has to be an in or out one so be it. I believe given the EU's attitude to the Irish no vote, the public now want out. If this so called democratic alliance of Sovereign Nations is prepared to ignore a democratic vote, then the EU is a dead, and deserves to be buried.
