Ukip do not have to kowtow to the outside bodies like unions or corporate sponsors which traditionally anchor political parties on the left or right. We debate those issues that may compromise our principles even though the outcome may be detrimental to our party - Ukip's discussions and the outcome over so-called short money is a case in point. We are a democratic party that believes in ideas - ideas which are likely to be best for the people of this country, and which will lower the cost of living and increase real wages. That’s not Left or Right; it’s just Ukip.
