Click here to view the full articleGood to see deaf standing for political representation. Unfortunately I voted UKIP as I don't want in to Europe ! Perhaps deaf need to try the mainstream process in Britain ? Or have they accepted nobody hearing is ever going to vote for them ? European law makes are unelected eurocrats who ride roughshod over British Interests. I rather suspect the UKIP and now TWO BNP euro reps are about to upset their gravy train....(No I don't support the BNP !). Should not deaf people START by running their own deaf groups first ? I don't agree with this 'back door' lobbying in europe we have to face up to the deaf discriminations HERE.
