Not really sure. He is in a lot of ways not even right wing. His economic views are pretty left leaning; he wants to increase minimum wage, make healthcare more affordable for low incomes, and supports our existing... there's no word for this in English, essentially we get paid to go to college instead of paying for it... well, that he supports. He's in favor of gay marriage, women's rights, and he even wants to put animal rights in the constitution. How's that for right wing? Regardless, I'm pretty sure that calling someone far right is not libel or defamation, at least not in the legal sense.

@DefinitelyNotAMachineCultist Indeed he isn't opposed to immigration itself. He is himself child of an immigrant. He wants to severely restrict it, in particular from Islamic countries. In his opinion immigrants must adapt to our culture. He is deeply opposed to Islam, that's probably why people call him far right. He views Islam not as a religion but as an ideology, and one that's fundamentally incompatible with western values. And he is anything but subtle, which I'm sure contributes to the image of far right. He keeps referring to Islamic headscarfs, and sometimes the women that wear them, as something akin to "skull rags" for example, even at one point proposing a tax for wearing them.
