On another thread, I said that, since UKIP's parliamentary side are mostly chips off the Tory block then former Labour members and voters ought to avoid touching them, with a barge-pole.
UKIP are welcome to champion the cause of the working people but this is no different to the way the Tories shamelessly shop for votes by appealing to workers' innate hatred of the underclass and the criminal class. At the same time, I'm sure that, as a matter of ideology, they'd like to dismantle the NHS, scrap paid maternity leave, reduce the number of paid holiday days per year, increase zero-hours contracts and innumerable other ways of pushing workers' rights back to the 1920s, before we reach the 2020s.
I've left immigration issues off the workers's hatelist so as to highlight it separately. UKIP logic is that "immigrants depress wage levels, therefore hate immigrants". At no point would UKIP encourage workers to hate employers for exploiting the oversupply of Labour, nor would they encourage immigrants into demanding the UK-person's "going rate" for the job.
They are pals of the employers, not the workers.
