UK Independence Party

The UK Independence Party is a Eurosceptic, right-wing populist political party in the United Kingdom, although they describe themselves as liberal, patriotic and democratic. The party reached its greatest level of success in the mid-2010s, when it gained two members of Parliament and was the largest party representing the UK in the European Parliament. UKIP originated as the Anti-Federalist League, a single-issue Eurosceptic party established in London by Alan Sked in 1991. It was renamed UKIP September 3, 1993.

The flags typically also include information about the intellectual property of the design and the manufacturer, inscribed in tiny yellow letters beneath the party name, as revealed by the above sources. However, that is not the essential part of the design, as revealed by the party flag images at the UKIP online shop:

A rarely used flag variant has yellow field, with the coin logo separated by a thin purple fimbriation and the party name inscribed in purple as well. The said information about the intellectual property of the design and the manufacturer is missing there.
