The whole, racist, homophobic, sexist etc stuff. Is simply false. They were diversions set up by media and rival parties to smear UKIP and make people afraid to support UKIP and turn certain sections away from the UKIP message. While it worked to some degree, most reasonable people saw through all that nonsense. Milo Yiannopoulos pretty much sums it all up here. 2.07-2.29
So on to the actual policies.
UKIP will privatize the NHS?
This is a common misconception. Not helped by the fact Labour in particular keep claiming UKIP want to privatize the NHS.
UKIP felt the NHS could not continue as it was, people were living longer, more people were coming, the costs were spiraling out of control, something had to be done. So at one point UKIP considered the privatization option, however UKIP had a meeting in 2014 where at the meeting they decided privatization was not the answer.
Ever since UKIP have made it clear they plan to keep the NHS free at the point of delivery,
UKIP have a lot of good plans for the NHS, including cutting out bureaucracy, cutting down on health tourism, increasing training for British people so we can have more British nurses(currently 80k are turned away every year) and to increase funding every year.
UKIP are just Tory-Lite
I've heard this said a few times. They point out Farage was a Tory, Mark Reckless a Tory, Douglas Carswell a Tory etc etc.
Truth is UKIP have quite a diverse range of figures in every department. There are rich established politicians, there are working class candidates, there are many gays, there are many women, there is practically everything, which is what a party really should be. You have to represent the working class and the rich, because our society has all sorts and you need a party that understands everybody.
UKIP want to ban immigrants
This is just nonsense. Mass immigration has been horrendous, UKIP want to restore immigration to normal respectable levels.
