VOTING to leave the EU will 'open up a whole new future' for Britain, according to the chairman of UKIP's Warrington branch.

Trevor Nicholls and fellow party members have been campaigning across the town for the past five weeks ahead of the June 23 referendum.

Mr Nicholls, who stood as a Warrington North candidate in last year's General Election, labelled the vote as one of the 'biggest choices' the public will ever have to make.

He said: "When you make that choice, which is your decision and only yours, think very carefully that in 10 to 20 years you can look into your children's and grandchildren's eyes and admit how you voted.

"If people vote to stay within the EU they endorse any politician from whatever party to, in the future, allow full 100 per cent open door immigration into Great Britain and all the consequences that come with that.

"If people vote to leave the EU they open up a whole new future for our children and grandchildren.

"Taking back our sovereignty being one. The choice for us to secure our own trade deals, to make our own laws and to vote in our own Government – if they don't work for us, the electorate, we then have the right to vote them out in five years, a luxury we do not have within the EU.

"In the end it's all about choice."
