Kilroy-Silk launches manifesto

The British Exit Europe Party (BEEP) today launched its manifesto for the new voting season. The party's leader, Robert Kilroy-Silk, emphasised that the British Exit Europe Party is not a "one-issue party".

"We have a great many policies besides getting out of Europe," Mr Kilroy-Silk told a press conference today. "We also intend to cut immigration and end the dictatorship of liberal fascists over our country."

The manifesto, Out with Wogs, Down with Frogs, was published today in a striking orange and white cover. Besides cutting immigration and getting out of Europe, the party ultimately intends to abolish the game of cricket and repatriate all non-Celts to their country of origin, the document claims.

"The very term cricket is a corruption of the French word for goal-post," Mr Kilroy-Silk writes in a "Personal Address to the Reader" at the front of the manifesto.

"It is thus clear that this game is nothing more than a feeble European attempt to undermine British sporting supremacy by introducing wooden implements and undersized, Brussels-standardised balls into the game of football," Mr Kilroy-Silk continues.

It is believed that the manifesto's position on repatriation has caused some division inside the party. One radical faction insists that even the Celts, or their ancestors, must originally have entered Britain from France, and therefore true purity of Englishness will only be achieved when the country has been completely depopulated apart from members of the BEEP.

Mr Kilroy-Silk and others, however, have rejected the "total repatriation option" on the grounds that the argument behind it "takes so-called scientific evolutionism to an unreasonable extreme."

The other parties have greeted the manifesto with scepticism, although the Prime Minister conceded that Mr Kilroy-Silk might have hit on a convincing explanation for repeated World Cup wins by European countries, as against England's sole victory in 1966.

The NuLabLib manifesto, which was published earlier this week, has already aroused controversy owing to its cover, which shows Lord Blair of Belmarsh raising the spirit of democracy from the dead in Baghdad. The Government is pledged to reduce immigration if it is voted back into office.

The leader of the opposition, Boris Johnson, who has promised to reduce immigration if the voting season concludes in his favour, condemned the illustration as "a tasteless and inaccurate portrayal of events," and said that all political leaders who had supported the war against terrorism should have been given due pictorial recognition.
