UK Foster Parents Lose Children Due to Political Affiliation

Social workers in the UK took three foster children away from their parents.

Their reasoning, that the parents belonged to a political party that socialists dislike.

The parents, who have asked for their identity to be hidden to protect the children, belong to the UK Independence Party, or Ukip.

Ukip believes in leaving the EU, decreasing government, lowering taxes, free markets, and immigration reform.

Basically, it's the British version of the Tea Party, except it's an official political party.

Before this, the parents have fostered over a dozen children, during the last seven years.

They're in their fifties, she's a certified natal nurse and he works with disabled people since he retired from the Royal Navy after thirty years of service.

But because they belong to a party that someone didn't like, they've had their children taken from them.

Politicians and activists from across the spectrum are aghast at the incident.

Demands have arisen for the children to be placed back with the couple, and some have asked that the social workers involved be fired.
