Leicestershire's UKIP MEP has urged voters to come out in force and back the party's Jakob Whiten at the forthcoming Ibstock and Heather by-election.

Derek Clark said Mr Whiten would offer a fresh approach to the needs of the local community.

He said: "I'm delighted to endorse Jakob's candidacy for the Ibstock and Heather ward.

"As a UKIP candidate he will offer a fresh approach to the local community and its needs.

"And being a UKIP councilor would mean he would not be bound by the sort of tiresome dogma which forces traditional party candidates to be just mouthpieces for their particular party's out-of-date policies."

Mr Whiten said: "Rest assured if I'm elected I promise to put the needs of the community first. A vote for me is a vote for common sense."

If elected on February 16, he vowed to be:

• Be tough on anti-social behavior and crime.
• Stand up and protect the elderly and vulnerable.
• Stand up to protect youth services.
• Stand up for families and local businesses.
• Let the community decide how he should vote on major issues.
• Hold monthly surgeries.

He will hold a surgery for voters on Saturday, February 4, at the Ibstock Business Centre, from 2pm to 4pm.
