Labour's Stewart Wood.

I have been pondering Stewart Wood's recent description of Ukip as 'a very rightwing party'.
I have trawled through Ukip's policies and am really struggling to find anything which meets that description. (Surely - it is traditional liberalism which might best describe them.)
I can only conclude two things:

2) Seeking democracy is classed as rightwing.
If the first instance is correct - he is talking out of his ear.
If it is the second then there will need to be coined whole new definitions of left and right.

SHAMEFUL!
