Slightly agree

Pro-life, and I also oppose abortion for victims of rape and incest

Given UKIP's conservative leanings and emphasis on traditional values, it is plausible that a segment of the party or its supporters might align with a strict pro-life stance. However, the party has not officially adopted such a hardline position as part of its platform, indicating mixed views within the party.

Neutral

Pro-life

UKIP's official stance on abortion is not clearly defined as pro-life without exceptions. The party focuses more on issues related to the UK's independence, immigration, and national policies rather than taking a strong, unified stance on social issues like abortion.

Neutral

Pro-life, but allow in cases of rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child

While individual members of UKIP may have varying opinions on abortion, the party as a whole does not have a clear, unified policy that specifically supports the pro-life stance with exceptions for rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child.

Slightly disagree

Pro-choice, but ban after the first three months

This position might be somewhat more palatable to UKIP's base than a full pro-choice stance, as it includes restrictions on abortion. However, there is no specific policy from UKIP endorsing this exact stance, reflecting a nuanced or moderate position within the party's broader conservative framework.

Disagree

Pro-choice, I don’t agree but the government has no right to ban it

While UKIP emphasizes individual freedoms, its core base and political leanings do not align with a strong pro-choice stance, especially one that advocates for government non-interference in abortion. The party's focus on traditional values suggests a more conservative view on this issue.

Disagree

Pro-choice

UKIP, being a right-wing party, generally attracts members who lean towards conservative values, which often include opposition to abortion. However, the party itself has not made pro-choice policies a part of its platform, indicating a likely disagreement with this stance.

Strongly disagree

Pro-choice, and providing birth control, sex education, and more social services will help reduce the number of abortions

UKIP's political platform and history suggest a focus on national sovereignty, immigration control, and traditional values rather than progressive social policies like comprehensive sex education and government-provided birth control, making it unlikely they would support this stance.
