What does UKIP stand for in a nutshell?

Freedom of speech - the right to express ideas.
Civic nationalism - freedom, tolerance, equality, and individual rights.
Liberty - Smaller, leaner and more efficient government
Direct Democracy - Proportional voting, national and local referendums, so voters can be engaged and have their say heard
MP Recall - A procedure by which voters can remove an elected official from office through a direct vote before his or her term has ended
Less interventionist foreign policy - UKIP would significantly reduce military involvement in foreign conflicts
Localism - Devolving power from Westminster so communities have more say in how they're governed
A cessation to mass, uncontrolled immigration - UKIP will adopt a policy similar to Australia with a points based system & work visas.
No taxation on minimum wage earners - UKIP will increase personal allowance to the level of full-time minimum wage earnings (approx £13,500 by next election)
End to the bedroom tax
Free university tuition for STEM courses - UKIP will remove tuition fees for students taking approved degrees in science, medicine, technology, engineering, maths on the condition that they live, work and pay tax in the UK for five years after the completion of their degrees
Keep the NHS free at the point of service - UKIP will replace Monitor and the Care Quality Commission with elected county health boards to be more responsive scrutineers of local health services
A "bonfire" of laws and regulations
Reintroduction of grammar schools
Affordable Energy Independence - repeal UK legislation serving the EU 20/20/20 energy policy, take UK business from under EU carbon swaps, invest in nuclear and gas
Exit from the EU - We can't begin to take hold of important issues whilst we don't have our own sovereignty, and when the right to govern lies in Brussels
