The vote to leave the EU was a vote for change. Now it's time for that change to happen.

We will leave the EU by 31st October. And we won't wait to deliver on the things that haven't been given the attention they deserve: the NHS, schools and tackling crime.

We will realise the benefits of Brexit and get our country back on the road to a brighter future.

Half of the world’s carbon emissions have been emitted in the last 30 years.

We’re taking on the corrupt fossil fuel corporations and the politicians who serve them to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2030.

Our Green New Deal will provide a Just Transition to a regenerative future for the people of the planet.

We want to build a Britain that works for the many, not the few. That means building the homes we need to rent and buy, keeping our communities safe, giving our schools the funding they need, and restoring the NHS to its place as the envy of the world.

Scottish National Party

+ add witnessed pledges

  • A Scottish independence referendum in 2020

Let’s build the better, more prosperous, fairer, more equal, more outward-looking, more open, more inclusive, more diverse Scotland that all of us believe, in our hearts, is possible.

An independent Scotland is closer than it has ever been, it really is within touching distance. What is needed now is another clear win for the SNP to bring it even closer still.

+ add witnessed pledges

  • Leave the EU without delay

We stand for a clean-break Brexit, by the new deadline of 31st October, that will enable us to take control of our laws, borders and money.

This is not only about the EU. It is about what sort of democratic country we live in.

We’re out to challenge the self-serving two-party system, make the people sovereign, and restore trust in our democracy.

UK Independence Party

+ add witnessed pledges

UKIP believes mass, uncontrolled immigration has been a disaster for Britain. We are adding a city the size of Cardiff to the UK population every year. It has to stop and UKIP is the only party that will do it.

UKIP also strongly opposes climate change fanaticism. 11% of households in England, 12% in Wales, 25% in Scotland and 22% in Northern Ireland live in fuel poverty. Climate change freaks, like the hysterics of 'Extinction Rebellion' demand massive hikes in energy prices. UKIP wants to get rid of 'green taxes,' cut fuel prices to improve ordinary people's living standards and reduce poverty.

UKIP stands for so many common sense policies which the other parties oppose.
