When I became a MEP in 2005,
I set myself three goals:
First, to stand up for Britain and
London in the European Parliament
Second, to support London
Conservative events and campaigns.
Third, to explain what MEPs
actually do and how the EU works.
Boris and Syed are promoting London across the world
I have made good progress on all three goals, but there is
always more to do.
For more articles and information about my work as an MEP, my support for
a new relationship with the continent and my priorities for London, please
visit:
www.syedkamall.com
Standing up for Britain in Brussels
In Brussels I work to promote British
interests on the International Trade and
the inluential Economic and Monetary
Affairs Committee.
I have been working with colleagues from
across Europe and from across the
Atlantic for an EU-US trade agreement. I
am delighted that President Obama has
now given the green light to the talks.
I am also working on trade agreements
with Japan and many of the fast growing
economies in Asia. I am the lead MEP on
the new trade deal with Singapore.
London is not only home to Europe's two
largest inancial districts. It is a leading
global inancial centre. While there are
lessons to be learned from the inancial
crisis, we should not let our European
neighbours hijack the agenda to
undermine London.
Receiving the "International
legislator of the year"award for my
work on transatlantic relations.
I owe the privilege of serving my fellow
countrymen to the hard work
of Conservative activists and to the
loyalty of Londons Conservative voters.
The least I can do is repay that support
by spending a few days a week speaking
at events, helping with lealets, delivery
and campaigning with Conservative
activists.
Supporting Conservatives back in
London
My key policy priorities for the next
ive years
1) Regain sovereignty in 2017 through a
new Treaty which restores British
democracy.
2) Negotiate more trade agreements
that help British businesses, whether we
are in or out of the EU after 2017.
3) Limit the damage done by Brussels to
the City of London and restore the power
to regulate inancial services to our
Westminster Parliament.
F
or as long as Britain
remains part of the
European Union we need to
fght strongly for the best deal
for London and Londoners.
Thats been my
guiding principle
since 1999 when
I was frst elected
to the European
Parliament.
Our campaign slogan
back then was In Europe,
not run by Europe, and
that still encapsulates my
approach to the EU today.
Since I became an MEP
the European Parliament
has become increasingly
powerful, and the EU
whether we like it or not
plays an important part in the
life of London and Londoners.
I share Prime Minister David
Camerons vision of a looser,
more fexible EU in which
Britain thrives.
I support renegotiating the
balance of power between
London and Brussels,
followed by an in/out
referendum in 2017.
Our region needs
infuential and committed
representatives in the
European Parliament.
As your longest-serving
Conservative MEP I am
proud to be leading Londons
voice in the EU ensuring
our region benefts to the
maximum.
Dr Charles Tannock MEP
L E A D I N G I N L O N D O N
I work hard to ensure your voice
is heard. I am pleased that the
Sunday Telegraph has ranked me
the UKs best-value MEP.
Its been my honour and privilege
to represent our great capital city
and the region of London for the
past 14 years.
With your support, I hope to
continue.

The most important thing an MEP can do is to
shape EU rules to ensure they are not a burden
on British citizens. I have amended more than
100 pieces of legislation in the past 4 years
which is twice as many as the average British
MEP.
1) Fight any EU rule which endangers UK
businesses, especially threats to the City
of Londons status as Europes leading
fnancial centre.
2) Push for the EUs accounts to be properly
audited or for EU funding to be suspended.
3) Oppose any rules which make it easy for
EU citizens to come to the UK only for the
purpose of claiming benefts.
4) Continue my campaign against EU waste
from pointless EU quangos to the uncalled-
for monthly trek to Strasbourg.
5) Work with London Associations to campaign
for a Conservative majority in 2015.

PUTTING BRITAIN FIRST I want us to be an
independent sovereign nation that sets its own
laws and economic policy. We must get powers
back from the European Union and control
our own destiny. We must restore our national
identity; protect our way of life, cultural heritage
and institutions.
CUTTING IMMIGRATION I want to see an end
to beneft and health tourism in the UK. The
National Health Service should only be for those
who have contributed in their taxes towards the
provision of our services. Newcomers should
not be allowed to siphon off limited resources
away from British taxpayers. I want to see the
immigrants that are settled here assimilate,
integrate and be proud to be British.
SLASH REGULATIONS PARTICULARLY FOR
SMALL BUSINESSES I will continually push for
the EU to ease the burden on small businesses
and in other areas of our domestic life. and in other areas of our domestic life.
BEATING UKIP I have a deep and abiding
love for Britain. Our campaign should be
PATRIOTIC and COMPASSIONATE. I believe
this will chime well with residents. I will
push for clear unambiguous messages in
our campaign on Europe and the issues that
matter to people.
SUPPORT LOCAL COUNCIL CANDIDATES
I will work tirelessly to support our London
borough candidates and use this campaign
as an opportunity to help get more
Councillors elected.
BOOST BRITISH MANUFACTURING We
should trade with the world including with
the hugely untapped resource that is the
Commonwealth. Free trade with the world will
help to boost our manufacturing base.
PROTECT THE CITY OF LONDON as the

CAROLI NE ATTFI ELD
A career woman, not a
career pol i t i ci an
30 years hands-on experience in financial markets
in the UK and Europe
Lived in inner city London for 28 years and raised
children there
Committed to a smaller and more efficient
European business model and the UK as a leader
of the non-Eurozone
Passionate about financial competence
Runs own business and understands issues faced
by small companies






I was once a career banker,
working my way through
what was then a very male-
dominated world into
management roles. In 1993, I
became the first woman
executive appointed by RBS. I
was in charge of the Global
Sales, Marketing and
Distribution of all the banks
Treasury and Capital Markets
products, running a business
with sales revenues in the
hundreds of millions and staff
based in 15 dealing rooms
around the globe. From
outside I have seen the
demise of a well- regarded
Institution through Internal
and external management
failures.

I left full-time work in 1996 to
raise my children but
continued working part-time
as a consultant in various
roles in the financial sector.
My children are nearly grown
up now and should be ready
to look out for themselves but
I am deeply concerned for the
financial future of their
generation. Eye watering
levels of debt have become a
way of life both at individual
and governmental level and
we need a return to an
understanding that budgets
should be balanced within the
lifetime of those responsible
for the borrowing. Nowhere is
this problem more obvious
than in Europe.

As well as being heavily
involved in local politics, I am
fluent in French and have
seen at first hand the
inequalities of the European
Project.

The financial recklessness of
the Blair and Brown
governments has eroded our
countrys financial credibility.
Our ability to renegotiate our
role in Europe is impaired by
the fact that we cannot offer
the City as an example of
financial competence. Yet that
is exactly what it was and
must be again. In London and,
by extension in Europe, the
Conservative party must
champion financial prudence,
personal accountability and
sensible regulation with the
objective of making the City a
driver of our economy of
which we might once again
even be proud.

On the doorstep, people say: All politicians
are the same. Please pick one who isnt.
I believe life is the
best training for a
career in politics.

Medicine, she has worked for over 20 years
as a Cancer Research scientist, at St
Bartholomews Hospital, and the Royal
Marsden. She has published over 60 papers
in peer reviewed journals on the diagnosis
and treatment of cancer.
Lynne is also an experienced Borough
Councillor, having served in a variety of
Cabinet posts and as Leader of the Council.
I am delighted that the Conservatives have
promised an in/out referendum on Europe.
We are the only party that will allow the
people to decide our Countrys future!
Practical Experience
Lynne is one of the best campaigners
the party has Rt.Hon. Chris Grayling MP,
Secretary of State for Justice
Lynne was part of the UK delegation to
the congress of the Council of Europe
during its UK presidency.
Reform of the European Court of Human
Rights remains the central focus of the
UK. The current backlog of cases will
take over 100 years to be heard, and is
growing all the time.
A large number of countries agree with
us that reform is long overdue and that
the Court should only be examining
cases where the law is uncertain, not
allowing every individual to take
personal disputes there.

A Better Deal
from Europe
The EU is not working for the UK.
Since monetary union, our relationship
has changed with countries in the
Eurozone. They need a better system
of control, and we need a looser
relationship with them.
There is no need for us to be bound by
regulations that restrict our economic
viability, we only need to comply with EU
regulations on goods we sell to the EU.
We need to radically re-negotiate our
relationship with the EU and repatriate
powers on our working conditions and
justice if we are even to consider
remaining part of the EU.

Repatriation of Powers from Europe

Precedence of UK law over EU law

An end to the Working Time Directive

Control over who can claim benefits

A reduced financial Contribution
Campaigning in the Council of Europe
A Better Deal for the UK from Europe
A free trade agreement with Europe
would suit us much better. We are,
after all, the 6th largest economy in
the world .
In the meantime, I will focus on
bringing back as much of our
money as possible

Britain is a trading nation, the fth largest in the world.
But to preserve our prosperity, the EU laws that threaten
it must be reformed.
Europe has lost sight of its purpose. It no longer promotes free trade, growth and
prosperity. If our economic future and way of life is to prosper, things will have to
change. I want to go to the European Parliament to stop the laws which suffocate
our economy, threaten jobs and endanger our way of life. Ill have three priorities:
The Financial Sector
The EUs system ignores the principles on which free trade
under the rule of law prospers. It rules by bureaucratic at,
not principle. Laws can be badly informed, poorly drafted
and the consequences devastating for growth. I would work
so our thriving sector can compete globally and trade feely
under the rule of law.
Jobs and Employment
Layer upon layer of EU law has pushed up production costs
and makes British goods less competitive in global markets.
Market share is lost to leaner non-EU economies. Growth
is stunted by huge costs. Employment law must be brought
back to Britain.
Saving Sovereignty Our Way of Life
Britains law, custom and entrepreneurial zest have over
centuries made it a free, prosperous and dynamic economy.
Its linguistic and artistic heritage brings cultural richness;
freedom under the rule of law brings liberty; parliamentary
sovereignty guarantees that liberty against usurpers at home,
and tyrants abroad. Im proud to have proposed with Martin
Howe QC the blueprint for the European Union Act 2011
which afrmed the principle that the UK Parliament could,
if it wished, strike down EU law.
Sheila Lawlor
Dear Fellow Conservative,
The EU has hit the headlines yet again, with a plan to ban olive oil jugs from restaurant tables.
However, the people of Europe gave insufcient support and so the plan was withdrawn.
The plan was the brainchild of Dacian Ciolos, the Agriculture Commissioner.
Mr Ciolos is not elected, but that does not prevent him or his fellow Commissioners promoting an
ever more extreme version of the European project one which fewer and fewer people trust. In
Germany for instance, distrust for the project has soared to 58 per cent (from 37) in the past ve
years. From Italy and France, the story is much the same.*
Though the Euro crisis increased such distrust, it is only part of the explanation. More people
now recognise that their livelihoods will suffer if the outlandish direction of European rule is
unchecked. Indeed their jobs may follow, where their way of life is going.
In Britain, all but the most ardent Eurosceptics have woken up to the problem. The initial aim of
free trade and greater prosperity has been so dissipated that only a seismic makeover will bring
it back. Our industries contend with thousands of pages of EU legislation, some of it irrelevant,
most of it damaging. Whether its the insurance industrys Solvency II or the Alternative Investment
Fund Managers directive, the principles on which free trade depends in a market system under
the rule of law, have been abandoned by the EU.
So when it comes to renegotiation, Britain will not be alone. Italy and Germany each has a
growing Eurosceptic population. In Italy, the Five Star movement won almost 27 per cent of the
vote earlier this year. And Germanys brand new party, Alternativ fur Deutschland (AFD), not only
calls for an exit from the Euro, but for powers to be brought home from Brussels. Whatever their
politics, those now against the European project recognise that success can only begin at home.
Economic well-being must be recovered if we and other countries are to survive in a global market.
A different system is needed: one which encourages success, encourages businesses to prosper,
encourages healthy competition. For that the fundamental principles of law making must change.
Every sector has its olive oil jug history. Most similar ascos are too technical, or too deeply
buried in unspeakable acronyms, to have hit the headlines. Yet the cry to repatriate powers will
chime with many sectors, in many countries where politicians have not had the power, or shown
the will, to stop laws damaging to national economies. For this we need the radical reform which
will allow Britain to compete in a global economy stretching from Beijing to Brazil.
It is this that the people of Europe can sense and why they no longer believe in the European
project that confronts them today. It is this which has inspired the strong scepticism in Britain of
the increasingly outdated European State. And it will inspire me and others who share the same
goal for this country and its future.
Yours ever,
I am Director of the think tank Politeia, and a former Research Fellow in Modern British History of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge.

When it comes to Europe,
Britain is no longer alone

There is no question of any erosion of
essential national sovereignty
Get British Sovereignty Back or Get Out
Warwick voting for Boris Johnson
in London Mayoral election
This was wrong.
The challenge
for our Prime
Minister in the
coming years
is to bring
back powers
to Britain.
We Must Be Masters in Our Own House
Employment
Farming
Fishing
Policing
Immigration
These powers should never have
been given away. We need to
negotiate a new relationship with the
EU.
Britain needs to protect the
sovereignty of our Parliament from
being emasculated. This goes to the
heart of modernising the Treaty of
Rome.
Protecting Londons Jobs
Europes Threat to Londons
Financial Markets:
Regulation and Taxes that will
emasculate London as a
competitive international fnancial
centre
Insolvency 2 Directive will be
costly
and inappropriate for the UKs
Insurance sector.
European fnancial directives
Increasingly take direct efect
automatically rather than being
Incorporated into UK law and adjusted to our circumstances
Euro-Zone Crises
The Euro-zone is structurally
fawed
The Euro cannot be made to work
The Single Currency has made
Europes fundamental problems of
competitiveness and structural
unemployment worse
We must work for the orderly
dissolution of the present
Euro-Zone
Warwick Lightfoot is a London Campaigner
Warwick helping to launch Love Your
Local Market 2013. EU regulation does
great harm to small businesses.
Euro-zone crises provokes
demonstrations and riots across
Europe, like this protest in Rome.
The CAP Farm Policy accounts for over
40% of the EU badged. The CAP is costly
for London tax payers and consumers
and should be ended.
