[quote:Anonymous Coward 28639308:MV8yMDY3OTgyXzM0Nzk2MDU1X0Q5NzU3MUQ3] UKIP's main policy is to have a referendum on Britain's membership of the European Union. UKIP is STRONGLY in favour of Britain withdrawing from the Union which it considers an overbearing expensive bureaucracy run by unelected control freaks who will do absolutely anything to keep the Euro project going, even if that means people in Greece having to suffer years of grinding poverty to pay back loans lent to it by the European Central Bank. While the youth of southern Europe face unemployment rates of over 50 percent, the Eurocrats at last weeks budget meeting treated themselves to fine champagne worth £121 a bottle. Nigel Farage, the leader of UKIP is becoming a national hero, the only politician with the balls to stand up in the European parliament and tell them they are leading Europe to the brink of social collapse. They smile smugly and take their generous salaries, paid for by flat broke European citizens who DID NOT VOTE FOR THEM. [/quote]

I know next to nothing about UK politics. Is this the UK version of the US Tea Party movement?
