The Ukip Referendum Battle Bus was also out in force in Grays this week.

MEP Tim Aker and other Ukip party members and volunteers sounded the horn for Brexit after the bus arrived in Thurrock.

Councillor Tim Aker MEP, who joined the bus tour, said: "If we weren't a member of the EU, would you vote to join it today?

“Would you vote to change a managed migration policy to open door immigration? What would you cut so we can give the EU £55m a day?

"Staying in the EU is an incredible risk. Outside we can make our own trade deals and go back to that trading relationship we thought we were joining in 1973.

"Outside the EU we can spend more on our NHS, control our borders and trade globally. Let's embrace the world. Vote Leave on June 23rd."
