UKIP unveiled its £1M worth of billboard posters yesterday. They were immediately branded as "racist" by Labour politicians and questioned about this by the media. This played into UKIP's hands - they got far more media coverage than if they hadn't been criticised.
I would not have called the posters that I have seen, like this one:
racist.
They are unfairly anti-immigrant and in very poor taste, but I don't think they are racist in the normal sense of the word.
