Values that are both liberal and conservative, love and hate for Nigel Farage, support and neglect.  2) What  ideologies  are on display in this clip? Conservative, Liberal, Socialist, Immigration restriction, Social welfare Part 2: Media Magazine reading Media Magazine issue 52 has two good articles on Ideology.
