True. In a December 2011 Guardian interview, Farage was quoted from his book as saying, “I was a libertarian to my fingertips,” and in the High Profiles interview he likewise described UKIP as “a libertarian political movement.” That makes the interviewer’s characterization that he described himself as a libertarian rather than a conservative broadly accurate, even though Farage also said his family was traditionally Conservative.
