EXCLUSIVE: Compulsory abortion for Down’s syndrome foetuses, says UKIP Kent candidate

Mothers with foetuses detected to have Down’s syndrome and other disabilities should be forced into a compulsory abortion, according to a UKIP candidate’s ‘personal manifesto’.

Geoffrey Clark's manifesto
Geoffrey Clark's manifesto
Geoffrey Clark, who is running in a by-election on Thursday (20) for the Gravesham Rural seat on Kent County Council and the Meopham North seat on Gravesham Borough Council, was labelled ‘abhorrent’ by disability charities and parents.

His ideas, published on his website, state: “Consider compulsory abortion when the foetus is detected as having Downs, Spina Bifida or similar syndrome which, if it is born, will render the child a burden on the state as well as on the family.”

He also wants free euthanasia for the over-80s.

Andrew Diedo, from Dartford, whose 27-year-old son Chris has Down’s syndrome, said Mr Clark’s view was “perhaps born out of fear and ignorance”.

He said: “Our son with Down’s syndrome enjoys a full, happy and productive life. Anyone who knows him will agree with me that the world is a far richer place because of him.”

Disability charity Mencap’s chief executive, Mark Goldring, said he was “disgusted and shocked” at the manifesto.

“It is abhorrent that Geoffrey Clarke sees disabled people solely as a burden. We question if he is fit for public office,” he said.

Liz Woodward, chief executive of DGSM Your Choice, a learning disability charity in Kent, said: “Someone with Down’s syndrome can now live a life like anyone else in the community. We find the manifesto disappointing and disturbing.”

Mr Clark told the Reporter: “They are a burden on the state. The NHS is no longer affordable and some services have to be cut. I’m tired of politicians saying we should cut managers.”

A UKIP spokesman defended Mr Clark’s right to opinions not in line with the party’s.

He said: “The comments in Geoff Clark’s personal manifesto regarding abortion do not represent party policy. As in any party, our members have a range of views and opinions which may not always accord with party policy. Geoff makes clear that this is a personal manifesto, not a party document. Geoff is a hard-working local activist who would make an excellent councillor.”

Diabolical.
 
That's absolutely appalling. He's entitled to his view, but his idea is utterly moronic. These disabled people have every right to live, and right should never be questioned. The consequences will be dealt with once the children are born. Maybe some of them would rather have not been born...but you can't judge that in advance.
 
All parties have members with some not very nice views.

Diane Abbott - Racist.
* During the 2010 Labour leadership race, Ms Abbott raised eyebrows by stating: "West Indian mums will go to the wall for their children."

She made the remark to explain her decision to send her son James to a fee-paying school after having previously criticised the private sector.

BBC interviewer Andrew Neil responded: "So black mums love their kids more than white mums, do they?"

* Ms Abbott reportedly said staff at her local east London hospital who were "blonde, blue-eyed Finnish girls" were not suitable to be nurses because they had "never met a black person before".

It's not fair to say that his view represents that of UKIP, let's be honest.

He is low on UKIPs ladder for sure but I would like to see a positive stance from UKIPs hierarchy instead of defending him and saying “The comments in Geoff Clark’s personal manifesto regarding abortion do not represent party policy. As in any party, our members have a range of views and opinions which may not always accord with party policy. Geoff makes clear that this is a personal manifesto, not a party document.

What he said. All parties have morons.
It's only really the party leader/party manifesto that matters.
Or in parties where the members are often given free votes, rather than just blindly going with the party line, then the individual views matter.

Fair enough, I'm not sure they can be there all the tim eto defend the party, though, in reality. Not that it isn't possible!

I don't see a problem here. If my local hospital was staffed with blonde, blue-eyed Finnish girls they'd need an extra security detail to keep me out of the place.

:p

Warning: this is not a troll post, just a genuine question.
Note: I'm apolitical, I don't give a beep.

I noticed UKIP has commandeered a wall across my street to add their spam. I see it from my window, it's bleeping annoying. Do they have a right to do that?

PS: I would also be annoyed by a "Mc Donalds" or "BMW" spam

Do you know who owns the wall? That's probably going to determine whether UKIP have any right to use the wall. If it's done without permission then a complaint to the wall owner (or potentially the local council) might lead to its removal although if the wall is owned by a private individual you'd think they might have noticed its presence.

God banishes man for nicking apples.

God then seemingly loses the ability to banish and stuff once we all start murdering each other because no one really understands WTF his book actually means or who he is.

Is this meant to be here? It seems strangely irrelevant for the general topic and perhaps belongs in a different thread.
