“Fall on!” Convinced of victory, troops of Parliament’s Eastern Association army break ranks and attack their fleeing Royalist opponents!
.
The Eastern Association was the organisation of counties in the east of England - Essex, Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridgeshire, and Hertfordshire - that funded and administered an army which eventually became a mainstay of the Parliamentarian military effort towards the end of 1644. Commanded by the Earl of Manchester, whose regiment we reenact, the Eastern Association not only helped shore up Parliament’s war effort but also provided the veteran troops who would form the backbone of the New Model Army and fostered the rise of Oliver Cromwell, who went from raising a volunteer cavalry troop to being King in all but name. Manchester had been one of the chief opponents of the king in the House of Lords and his Eastern Association army enjoyed success in its campaign against the northern forces of the Earl of Newcastle, defeating the Royalists in Lincolnshire, relieving Hull, capturing Lincoln, and then heading north to besiege York and, eventually, helping gain victory at Marston Moor.
.
The tensions and arguments in its ranks between Presbyterians and Independents presaged the coming battle for control of Parliament between the two groups, and the political, religious, and military make-up of the Eastern Association remains a fascinating but sometimes misunderstood aspect of the first English Civil War.

A graffitied UKIP poster for the upcoming European elections for MEP representatives in England. Seen on the B1062 between Bungay and Beccles.
Somepolls are indicating that UKIP could enjoy a “landslide” victory in the 22nd May elections, with Nigel Farage’s party taking advantage of Euroscepticism and the perceived ineffectiveness of Britain’s mainstream political parties by offering a so-called “Common Sense” ‘populist’ protest vote against the British political establishment and the EU. A cornerstone of UKIP’s policies rest on tackling the perceived 'threat’ of “excessive immigration”, which the party claim is “crippling local services”.
UKIP’s anti-immigration stance has proved controversial though, with the party’s national billboard campaign in particular receiving lots of media coverage. The most unsettling of these billboard designs features an Orwellian-esque pointing finger accompanied by the legend “26 Million People in Europe are looking for work. And whose jobs are they after?”. Labour Party MP Mike Gapes branded the campaign “racist” and “xenophobic”, and accused UKIP of seeking “to win votes by whipping up animosity against foreigners living and working and contributing to this country.”
There have also been several allegations of sexist remarks attributed to UKIP members. The most high-profile incident concerned Godfrey Bloom’s mocking use of the word “sluts” to describe women attending a UKIP conference, which resulted in him quitting his position as a UKIP whip, though he remains an MEP and member of the party. UKIP treasurer Stuart Wheeler denied allegations of sexism after making a comment about women's “competitiveness” in relation to men.
