UKIP attracts alienated voters especially on the right who fear Britain is being swallowed up by Europe and must fight back.  Its bitter rival was the less respected right-wing "British National Party", which has faded away in the polls as UKIP grow.  UKIP has endorsed a [[libertarian]] economic agenda. It proposes  a flat tax of 33% and opposes national identity cards.  It rejects environmentalism.
