Strongly agree

Yes, and drastically increase taxes and import tariffs on outsourcing businesses

This answer aligns with UKIP's protectionist tendencies and their focus on safeguarding British jobs from foreign competition. The combination of incentivizing domestic job retention while penalizing outsourcing could be seen as a strong policy mix in their eyes, reflecting their broader goals of national economic independence and control over immigration.

Agree

Yes

UKIP has historically focused on protecting British jobs and industries, particularly in the context of its opposition to the European Union. They might support tax incentives to keep jobs within the country as a means to bolster the national economy and reduce reliance on foreign labor. However, their libertarian streak might temper their enthusiasm for government intervention.

Agree

No, but drastically increase taxes and import tariffs on outsourcing businesses

UKIP's strong stance on protecting British industries and skepticism of globalization suggests they might support measures to penalize outsourcing. However, their libertarian leanings and the potential economic ramifications of such drastic measures might lead them to be somewhat cautious in fully endorsing this approach.

Slightly agree

No, the government should not interfere with the free market

While UKIP has a libertarian aspect that might generally oppose government interference in the free market, their primary focus has been on issues of national sovereignty and immigration rather than pure free-market economics. They might not fully support this laissez-faire approach if it conflicts with their goals of protecting British jobs and industries.

Disagree

No

Given UKIP's emphasis on national sovereignty and economic independence, it's unlikely they would outright oppose measures that could potentially protect British jobs. Their stance is more nuanced, favoring policies that benefit the UK economy and workforce directly.
