Rupert’s ‘I don’t care’ attitude has very quickly turned into completely shitting the bed over that Daily Mail article
The disappointment in the man himself continues despite the overall vision of the party not changing. Everyone else has been excellent, but in the social media age, and especially with a new party, one can only have so many boomerisms because your support base completely evaporates and the vision means jack shit no matter how great the policies and eventual succession of the party looks
Genuine record breaking demolition job here from Rupert. If he felt that throwing in a few civnat comments would make him look less extreme (no doubt the civic nationalist faction have been in his ear relentlessly) then he’ll quickly find out that this strategy will only succeed in turning his party into Advance UK in terms of vote share and meme status
It’s very clear what’s happened here, he’s been spooked by being painted as far right and the civic nationalists are encouraging him to dial it back. It’s salvageable, but he’s dug himself a huge hole with his support base, who’ve already been fucked over so many times before and have zero tolerance for this nonsense.
Going to be an interesting few weeks. Make or break, and every crisis brings an opportunity. Our faction usually wins these and gets further concessions.
Charlie Downes as deputy leader would be a major reassurance for the future and a great act of goodwill.
@JoJoas1982@Sargon_of_Akkad Not one bit, the reason it’s grown is because of the message they have been promoting and the apparent sincerity of Rupert Lowe the fact he is an MP makes very little difference
@JoJoas1982@Sargon_of_Akkad I’m not sure why you think having an MP makes the slightest difference what matters is how many MPs can restore get in the next parliament
@JoJoas1982@Sargon_of_Akkad Why do you assume we need an MP now in this Pantomime parliament? We don’t need our leader to be an MP in the current establishment as the current establishment is going to be dismantled anyways
@JoJoas1982@Sargon_of_Akkad He disavowed Ethnonationalists, Unprompted. He must go now so we can get real leadership for the next 3 years leading up to the next election otherwise Restore is a waste of time and effort.
