"Mr President, I speak particularly for the UK Independence Party. The course of justice and security in Europe took a backward step when internal border controls were abolished. This has encouraged large-scale movements of people across the continent, not to say much illegal immigration, all of which provides a perfect cover and condition for those you fear most: criminals such as the traffickers in human beings, and terrorists. They are now free to flourish.
The UK Independence Party will re-establish Britain’s border controls and take back the right to say who shall enter our country. For centuries we accepted people from all over the world, but in small numbers so that they could settle peacefully and productively. Now our crowded islands are full and we seek to balance the number of those coming in against the number of those leaving.
We believe in the sovereignty of the democratic nation-state. Countries are perfectly capable of establishing their own humane criteria for asylum seekers and of managing their own security systems. The capacities and needs of one country are not the same as any other. We do not believe in EU style harmonisation!"@en1
