The Daily Caller reports:

A British couple lost custody of their three foster children after social workers called them “racist” and said they were “unsuitable” caregivers — because of their political party affiliation.

The anonymous couple support the UK Independence Party (UKIP), a libertarian political party that seeks Britain’s withdrawal from the European Union. Joyce Thacker, the strategic director of children and young people’s services in the British city of Rotherham, defended the decision, specifically citing the party’s immigration policy.
