She says: Now that Article 50 has been triggered we can dare to dream of a future as a strong, independent, sovereign nation. UKIP has set out in its manifesto the six ‘Brexit’ tests we need to pass to take back control - of our laws, our borders, our maritime waters and fisheries and our trade agreements – by 2019. For the second general election in a row, UKIP’s spending proposals do not involve raising any taxes; The £35 billion we will use to finance our public spending priorities has again come from reasonable cuts to the foreign aid budget, scrapping HS2, amending the Barnett Formula and the savings we will make in two years’ time by leaving the EU, not cuts to school budgets or a ‘dementia tax.’ Some of our spending priorities are listed here, I urge you to read our full manifesto on www.ukipsurrey.co.uk before you cast your vote. Since June 24^th the BBC, media and other parties have tried to tell you that our job is done. They couldn’t be more wrong, we’ve only just begun.
