Agree
No
Given UKIP's focus on fiscal conservatism and skepticism towards large government spending programs, it is likely they would support maintaining tuition fees as a means of ensuring that higher education institutions are funded without increasing government expenditure.

Agree
No, but they should be reduced
While UKIP has not explicitly focused on education policy, their general approach to fiscal responsibility and skepticism of large government spending might make them more open to the idea of reducing, rather than abolishing, tuition fees to alleviate financial burdens while still maintaining some level of personal responsibility.

Slightly agree
Yes, but only for citizens
UKIP's strong stance on prioritizing British citizens in various policies could make them somewhat supportive of this idea. However, their lack of a clear stance on education funding specifics and potential concerns about the financial viability of such a policy make this support tentative.

Slightly agree
Yes, but only for students studying in fields of high job demand
UKIP might see the merit in focusing resources on fields with high job demand as a way to boost the economy and reduce unemployment. However, their overall skepticism towards government spending on education makes strong support for this policy unlikely.

Neutral
Yes, but only for low income families
While UKIP has advocated for policies that prioritize British citizens, their overall economic and social policies do not clearly align with targeted financial support based on income. This makes their position on this issue difficult to predict, but likely neutral.

Disagree
Yes, and replace it with a graduate tax
UKIP's general approach to economic policy, which emphasizes low taxes and minimal government intervention, suggests they would be unlikely to support replacing tuition fees with a graduate tax, as it could be seen as another form of taxation.

Strongly disagree
Yes
UKIP has traditionally focused on reducing immigration, leaving the EU, and promoting British values. They have not been a party that prioritizes free higher education for all, which would likely be seen as financially impractical within their economic policies.
