MOST of the people of Southampton will hopefully be voting in the local election on May 3, but I urge you to vote whatever your political views are.

Remember however that the country's future sovereignty and independence are at stake, even if it be a local council election.

Remember also the five democratic questions, which you should ask any MP who is pro-Europe. First question "what power have you got?"

Second question "where did you get it from?" Third question "in whose interest do you use it?" Fourth question "to whom are you accountable?" and importantly, the fifth question "how can we get rid of you?"

MIKE COTTRELL, Southampton. UK Independence Party.
