Freedom Democrats attend Die Freiheit conference in Berlin.

A delegation of the Freedom Democrats had the privilege of attending a conference of the German Freedom Party (Die Freiheit) in Berlin this week end.

Chairman Gary Marshall, Treasurer John Savage and Overseas representative David Taaffe represented the UK Freedom Democrats.

Top of the bill were guest speakers Rene Stadtkewitz (Die Freiheit party leader), Geert Wilders of The Dutch Freedom Party and Oskar Freysingerm of The Swiss Peoples Party.

The invitation from Die Freiheit to attend is seen as a mark of respect that our European sister parties have for the recently formed Freedom Democrats in the UK. The Freedom movement is sweeping across Europe and already with elected councillors in our ranks we are ideally suited to take that movement forward in the UK.

Chairman and party leader Gary Marshall, a parish councillor in North Devon said. “It is a great honour to be in the same company as politicians such as Rene Stadtkewitz, Geert Wilders and Oskar Freysingerm. We have much in common but also there is much for us to learn from our European partners. I am fully committed to taking the Freedom Democrats to the same level as other European Freedom parties. The British political theatre is crying out for a non extremist nationalist party that puts the interests of its own citizens first. The Freedom Democrats are that party”.
