Apparently, a journalist has just noticed and publicized a re-branding that was noticed by other journalists back in October 2025.
Both times, it seems that no-one has highlighted the irony of #UKIP ditching the #pound.
This is the rump UKIP, by the way, left behind after the original UKIP morphed into the Brexit Party, and thence #ReformUKLtd.
Think of it as the nationalist extremists's version of 'The Real Labour Party' and suchlike that you find on ballot forms.
The slogan is somewhat older.
Rump #UKIP, drawing the attention of pretty much no-one apart from someone uploading to Wikimedia Commons, re-branded to the part with the slogan a year or so beforehand.

The #IronCross (with sword, spear, and shield) part is the new bit that was spotted in 2025.
Cynically put: Rump UKIP ditching the #pound didn't get them into the headlines, but adding an Iron Cross did. Twice.
My guess is that one of the bumbling Rump #UKIP people had the idea that it would associate them with something bad, like knife crime.
Or perhaps someone told them that per #ElectoralCommission guidelines it shouldn't mislead Rump UKIP voters into thinking that the ballot already has a cross next to their party.
