Christian Party Leader to Stand

Christian Party leader and former Campsfield House Detention Centre associate chaplain, Revd George Hargreaves is standing in the Haltemprice and Howden by-election.

Revd Hargreaves who was also Chair of the Metropolitan Police Service?s Stop and Search Community Consultative Committee in the wake of 7/7 is asking the Haltemprice and Howden electorate to use their vote to demand a referendum on the European Union, which he believes in the greatest threat to our civil liberties.
The decision to stand came after a telephone poll of over 4,000 electors in the constituency. ?Almost three out of four respondents voted for the Christian Party to stand in the by-election.?, noted Revd Hargreaves. The poll took place all day Saturday and on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.

Revd Hargreaves added, ?I started in politics with Sir James Goldsmith?s Referendum Party back in 1996. Twelve years later we still have not had a referendum on Europe. Now with the Lisbon Treaty ratified by the Labour Government, and only the Irish ?No Vote.? saving us, we must make our voice heard. Haltemprice and Howden by-election is the place for such a noble endeavour.?

Revd Hargreaves has posted an address on You Tube explaining why he is standing.
