I await a detailed explanation as to why that is actually the spear of destiny.

Its not exactly come from nowhere. Imagine the dregs left in a pro-brexit party after everyone else followed the pied piper and started wearing turquoise.

Well when all the “reasonable” Ukippers join Reform who does that leave?

I don’t understand the spear but the Cross Pattee is a pretty common icon globally, we even use it for our medals to this day.
I can sort of get why people are making comparisons, but it is not an icon that is exclusively associated with Nazi Germany.

It’s like Frank’s flag from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia
Frank Reynolds “didn’t think it was going to come off like that”
Think I would have picked something less Germanic myself would have been less weird

Reform need to up their game
There’s a certain Hindu symbol representing prosperity and good luck which speaks for what Reform stand for that may be of interest

The electoral commission should refuse it. They won’t, because they’re spineless, toothless or both, but they should

So with an Iron Cross logo and Nazi salutes at events playing fascist anthems, is UKIP just a mask off far-right party now?

Does this mean the Colour purple is now free again for another party to use?
honestly we have more prominent Political parties than colours available.
I hope Your Party switches to purple
it would really tie in with the nickname Fruit and Nut party if they adopt the Cadbury colours

Genuinely thought UKIP was long gone.
Remarkable logo that echoes imperial Germany… Definitely draws from the UKs history.
What next, an eagle and swastika with a uniform by Hugo Boss?

At this point UKIP must just be a political grift/some sort of tax dodge, right?
I mean who’s voting for them, we already Brexit’d to our detriment and its “glorious” leader has long since jumped ship, so what is this husk of a party?

Not even trying to hide it anymore are they? Should just rename themselves to Norsefire and be done with it.

What I find particularly puzzling is why do British nationalistic parties always seem to emulate literally any country other than Britain?
We have Reform desperately trying to shoehorn American nationalist practices into our politics, and UKIP emulating 1930s Germany.
It just really highlights the fact that all this “Are Cuntry” bs is just a smokescreen for bigotry and aggressiveness.

UKIP… a party with the same mainstream credibility as the moon-landing conspiracy theorists and disciples of David Icke.
At this point they’re just half a dozen drunken racists in a ‘spoons, moaning that Schrödinger’s immigrants are both taking all of the jobs and claiming all of the benefits…

As a British Jew and descendant of the victims of the evil of the Nazis I suppose I should be terrified with the symbolism of this. However I’m torn as to whether I find it hilariously pathetic or pathetically hilarious. I’d put a tenner on my absolute fucking nightmare of a grandmother being able to rout the entire sorry lot of the chinless inbreeds, cowards, deviants and fuckwits that still support this used condom discarded by Nigel Farage of a party.

Jesus fucking christ.
And even if they do the hand wringing “Uhhh, achtually the Iron Cross isn’t a Nazi symbol it predates the Nazis and is the German medal of valour” why are you choosing a symbol of German nationalism as your symbol for British nationalism?

Something feels off with the spacing between “UKIP” and “the new right”. Also what a boring font.
It’s very disappointing. Fascists aren’t what they used to be when it comes to typography.

Well at least its not the Balkenkreuz so small mercies and all that [Balkenkreuz – Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balkenkreuz). However it does look very like a [Cross pattée – Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_patt%C3%A9e) which was the model for the Iron Cross and is associated with the Teutonic Knights.

Just look at this. Obviously Fascism is awful but what i think we can all appreciate a gorgeous poster.
I can’t help but feel a backsliding since the 1930s.

Just look at those posters and typesetting.
