> It genuinely horrifies me that UKIP is an option. I'm fairly sure the BNP wasn't an option for you, so why would anyone embrace the intellectual vapidity of UKIP?

I wonder why nobody takes you seriously.

> I'm not saying they're the same. But...

Linking a very bias guardian article written by Robert Ford and Matthew Goodwin, who coincidently wrote; http://www.amazon.co.uk/Revolt-Right-Explaining-Extremism-Democracy/dp/0415661501

Yes, being against free movement of goods, services, labour and capital dot not necessarily mean you are a raving lunatic who wants to join combat 18.

I think you're a terrible person for stating so.

I'll vote Tory next year just so we can go to war. (Your words not mine)

I'm going to be pessimistic and provide this book by Ford and Goodwin - admittedly, however, books of a similar disposition could be archetypal of all over Europe at the moment, but people coming to the UK (especially from outside of Europe) should definitely give the book more than a passing glance. It's contemporary and, following the 2008 Wall Street crash, it doesn't look like it'll be going away any time soon.

The book is called "Revolt on the Right: Explaining Support for the Radical Right in Britain", and focuses primarily on the rise of Farage and UKIP into the public conscious - for those unaware (to use a few gross simplifications), UKIP is the UK's "Front National"/"Swiss People's Party"; Farage is the UK's Geert Wilders.

Not read it myself, but I've heard this is a pretty good study on the UKIP electorate if you're interested: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Revolt-Right-Explaining-Extremism-Democracy/dp/0415661501/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1401128015&sr=8-1&keywords=goodwin+ford

The authors also have blogs/newspaper articles if you search around and prefer reading those.
