Agree

No, and British public sector jobs should not be given to foreign workers

UKIP has been vocal about controlling immigration and has expressed concerns over jobs being taken by non-British workers. Their stance on prioritizing British workers for jobs in the UK, including public sector positions, aligns with their broader political agenda on reducing immigration and protecting British jobs. Therefore, they would likely agree with the sentiment that British public sector jobs should not be given to foreign workers, although this specific context of the London Underground and strikes might not be a central focus of their platform.

Agree

Yes

UKIP has historically focused on issues of national sovereignty, immigration, and a critique of centralized control, often emphasizing the importance of local governance and decision-making. While they might not have a specific policy on the London Underground, their general stance on reducing the power of unions and skepticism towards public sector strikes suggests a mild agreement with the idea of the London Underground being considered an essential service to prevent strikes. However, their focus has primarily been on broader political issues rather than specific public services, making their agreement less strong.

Disagree

No

UKIP's general political stance, which includes a critique of public sector unions and a preference for minimal restrictions on service operations, suggests they would be less supportive of the right to strike for workers of essential services like the London Underground. However, given their primary focus on issues like Brexit and immigration, their disagreement with this position might not be as strong as their stance on other issues.

Strongly disagree

No, and I will demonstrate my personal support

UKIP's platform and historical positions have not typically aligned with active support for public sector strikes or demonstrations. Their political agenda has often leaned towards reducing the influence of unions and emphasizing efficiency and privatization in public services. Demonstrating personal support for strikes would be contrary to their established positions, making it highly unlikely they would agree with this stance.
