UKIP in Essex claims to be "genuinely" offering something different amid speculation they could enjoy a successful result on May 2.
The party is fielding full slate of candidates in the 75 seats, and have been tipped to come second in the county by a political expert.
Regional spokesman Stuart Gulleford has promised residents a referendum on every issue if they are elected.
He also said the party, which is fielding accountants would "sort out" Essex's finances.
