UKIP: Harry Aldridge attacks Mike Nattrass & Trevor Colman

Harry Aldridge - UKIP YI useless member and Farage sycophant - has been indulging in another bit of brown nosing.

This time, he has decided to attack Mike and Trevor for having the audacity to defy Fuhrer Farage by actually working in the interests of their electorate. And what was their crime? Publishing this - along with Nikki Sinclaire - in The Mail.


Harry, of course, has done this on the orders of the Fuhrer. He hasn't the intelligence or the guts to do it on his own. So when Farage is consigned to the dustbin and a new leader takes his place will Harry argue that he was only obeying orders if called to account for his attack on the two MEPs? It reminds us of a similar argument used by the followers of another dictator who came to a sticky end in 1945!

Here is his posting from the YI website:

YI Chairman Criticises Two UKIP MEPs
Posted April 30th, 2011 by Harry Aldridge

As the elected Chairman of Young Independence I feel obliged to condemn the unacceptable actions of two UKIP MEPs. Mike Nattrass and Trevor Colman, by helping to fund an advert promoting a rival political candidate, have let down both themselves and more importantly UKIP members and activists up and down the country.

UKIP MEPs must be team players. They are elected on a Party ticket, the public did not vote for any one individual. It is simply not acceptable for MEPs, with an inflated view of their importance, to wield the power of their positions as if they have a direct individual mandate.

All UKIP European Election Candidates signed and agreed to the MEP Code of Conduct which committed them to “promote UKIP’s objectives as set out in the party constitution and manifestos”, “pool group funds” and “work as a team”. The actions of Trevor Colman and Mike Nattrass directly contravene the code of conduct. The promotion of a rival candidate’s campaign – a campaign that duplicates the efforts of similar non-partisan campaigns that are supported by UKIP - is not productive and nor is it fair on the UKIP activists whose time, money and shoe leather won them their seats.

The public want to see a productive political party that is mature and able to work towards the common cause. This is something I take seriously. Discord is tiresome and off-putting to young members and harms our ability to capitalise on the best levels of public support the party has ever seen.

Members from around the country have expressed their upset and disgust at today’s advert and the actions of these MEPs. It is the branches and activists who feel directly the impact of their decisions.

They are acting as individuals, not as team players. Quite plainly if they seek to continue to work for themselves and not for UKIP’s cause then I sincerely hope that they are deselected as candidates at the next available opportunity.

UKIP needs committed individuals as MEPs who can provide the British public with a united radical opposition that they can support. That is what I and others in YI and the wider Party will continue to work towards.

Harry Aldridge
Chairman, Young Independence


It is interesting to note that Harry 'Brown Nose' Aldridge claims to be YI Chairman. On the official UKIP YI website Micheal Heaver is still listed as such. See: LINK

Little Harry continued to do his master's bidding by posting the following on the UKIP members only forum:

I've published a statement on this as YI Chairman. I'm afraid it needs to be said.

End of quote.

Yes, how dare Mike and Trevor act independently of Harry's Glorious Leader! How dare they show the courage to leave the racist EFD group. How dare they use their money without letting Farage get his grubby little hands on it! How dare they seek to provide the public with the facts!

Mr Aldridge obviously places the personal interests of Nigel Farage above those of UKIP or our country.

And we love this line! "UKIP must be team players".

It was Farage who, through the NEC of UKIP forbade Nikki Sinclaire to use the UKIP name. That is why this advert had no UKIP logo on it!

Farage is the one who should learn to become a team player!

It is a great pity that no one has explained to Harry that publicly attacking two of UKIP's MEPs days before important local elections is hardly going to give the voters a good impression of a united party marching forward to a glorious future! But at least it confirms a point made on numerous occasions by GLW, Andrew Edwards and this blog - UKIP is at war with itself. The party is falling apart under a corrupt and inept leadership where sycophancy counts for more than talent.

But at least Harry has scored a few brownie points with Nigel. And who knows where that could lead? A seat on the NEC? Or how about a seat in Brussels where he can continue to tag along behind his master like a dog on a lead!
