South Staffs By-Election

If you live in South Staffs, vote English Democrats (EDP). They're the only party to stand for England and pledge to stop the discrimination that is targetted at England on a daily basis.

Here is a message from Garry Bushell, the EDP's candidate in the election:

My name is Garry Bushell. I was born and raised in South East London. My Dad was a fireman, Mum was a Barclay’s Bank secretary. You may know me from TV shows and the Bushell On The Box telly column; but I began my career as a rock writer and I have always campaigned passionately for England and the English.
In my time I have managed rock bands (The Cockney Rejects and The Blood), boxed Lloyd Honeyghan and promoted charity comedy and variety nights. I started working in Fleet Street in 1985; doing shifts at the Daily Mirror and the Evening Standard before landing a staff job on the Sun. In 1987, I put together the Number One single Let It Be, which raised more than £1 million for the families of the Zeebrugge ferry disaster victims - with the help of Paul McCartney, Kate Bush, Boy George, Mel & Kim and other top pop stars.
I have been TV editor and showbusiness editor of The Sun and Assistant Editor of The Star. I’ve written a number of successful books including Running Free, the best-selling biography of Iron Maiden, Dance Craze (The Two-Tone Story) and two crime novels, The Face and Two-Faced.
I am also vice president of Dave Lee's Happy Holidays – a charity that provides holidays for sick, disabled and underprivileged children
I was once a member of the Labour Party but became totally disillusioned with politicians and party politics. I am standing in this election to draw attention to the urgent need to reform the way England is governed. I believe absolutely in the rights of the English people to rule ourselves and to celebrate our culture, history, and traditions including free speech, free assembly, habeas corpus and the right to trial by jury.
