The U.K. Independence Party, which wants Britain to withdraw from the European Union, rejected the suggestion of an electoral pact with Prime Minister David Cameron’s Conservatives and said the two parties are at “war.”

UKIP leader Nigel Farage ruled out any deal with the Conservatives after Tory lawmaker Michael Fabricant, in charge of parliamentary campaigning, said it was “time to actively consider whether a rapprochement might be possible” with UKIP to address a rise in euroskepticism among British voters.
