user roverthebendinsussex flipping heck rover as a lefty myself i am well placed to say that ukip are no where near the left of the spectrum even in the mildest sense no social justice no equality opposition to gay marriage for example support for immigration restriction in my view entirely unjustified as immigrants make up less than of the population and homes free in britain at any one time are sufficient to house considerably more than the record numbers of immigrants ukip are rallying against and they cannot be considered the welfare parasites ukip make them out to be as statistics show virtually all are employed and pay tax civic nationalism saying britons should be prioritised over foreigner with regard to employment for example this makes ukip right wing and every political scientist worth their salt says so however my handled your edit warring inappropriately and for that i apologise also i shall not re edit the ukip page to say far right as consensus has been reached against it and i retract my accusation of british nationalism civic nationalism is far more appropriate and correct
