"Right-wing populism is a combination of ethno-nationalism with anti-elitist populist rhetoric and a radical critique of existing political institutions. According to Margaret Canovan, a right-wing populist is "...a charismatic leader, using the tactics of politicians’ populism to go past the politicians and intellectual elite and appeal to the reactionary sentiments of the populace, often buttressing his claim to speak for the people by the use of referendums."

This past quote is without a doubt, politically centered and represents the liberal aspects of hidden referendums. The fact that multiple persons would consider right wing populism a "Radical critique of existing political institutions." is without a doubt rather critical and biased.
