Makerfield is existential for Reform.
Restore consulted the Makerfield branch. They said go for it. That is good enough. Assuming they can back their words with actions and run a good campaign with a strong local candidate.
Andy Burnham as PM changes nothing of substance. He may even be weaker than Keir Starmer and have less evil willpower. He has even fewer ideas than Starmer. And he will be without a national electoral mandate.
But if Restore wins, then, first, Reform and the Conservatives MUST tilt towards the nativist right, splintering both parties in favour of Restore. And second, it means a 2029 Restore victory is very plausible.
On the other hand, if Reform wins, beating Restore, the Greens, and Labour, then they would have made their case to the electorate and proved themselves. Congratulations to them. How Restore should respond will depend on many details, from the quality of the candidate and campaign to the vote tallies etc...
And if the Greens win, then it would confirm that Labour is dead, and it would highlight the necessity of a genuine right that the public can unite behind. It would mean that the youngest party, Restore, hasn't yet gotten its act together, and that Reform isn't credible enough to win.
This election is existential for Reform. This is why their surrogates are angry with Restore running. If they lose it, they slump nationally, even if Restore doesn't win it. But if Restore does win, then, by God, it's a political earthquake.
For Reform, the best outcome is obviously a victory. The second best is the Greens, so they can cast the election as them Vs the lunatic left and rally the base, but even that would be terrible, as it would mean that they can't win in a majority white area against the silly Greens. A victory for Labour would be a major defeat for them. But a victory for Restore is existential.
There is no argument for Restore not running other than the local branch not being ready or not having enough resources. No party owns your vote. Every party has the right, even the duty, to put its ideas forward and let the voters decide.
If @RestoreBritain_ have decided to run in Makerfield, the time for second-guessing and nay-saying is over.
The correct strategy now is to project supreme confidence that we will win. It’s time for a Kierkegaardian leap of faith.
Every single one of you reading this, the 10 follower account, the 1000 follower account, the 300,000 follower account, is a mimetic delivery device. Just one of you can reshape outcomes through sheer force of will. Imagine what we can achieve when we all do it together.
Take it as an Article of Faith: Restore Britain will win in Makerfield. Doubt is the only thing that stops the outcome.
#RestoreBritain #Makerfield
Foreign nationals should not be permitted to stand for election, and a Restore Britain Government would ban it.
Reform's Bangladeshi man lost in Portsmouth, but others succeeded.
An Indian was elected to the Scottish Parliament, even without a permanent visa to stay in the UK.
This is wrong - they should not be allowed to stand.
Our position is very straightforward.
British elections for British people.
I want to be really clear about what our aim is following yesterday’s historic victory.
Win the next general election, and I have never been more confident we are going to do exactly that.
What happening in Great Yarmouth was seismic.
Turnout soared. We brought thousands of people to the polling station who have never voted before. We got more votes in this local election than I received in the general election.
The implications of it all must not be underestimated.
Despite everything Reform threw at us, we decimated them in every single seat. Farage said we wouldn't win one percent. He was right. We won almost fifty.
The nine wards across Great Yarmouth are so varied. From Winterton in the rural north, to the urban centre of Great Yarmouth itself.
We won the nine seats, and the borough council by election, but within those wider seats we won every single ward by a mile.
If we can win in every one of those areas, we can win anywhere.
As I promised, we are going to give the British people a genuine alternative - we are going to provide an option to elect people from outside the rotten political establishment.
We did that in Great Yarmouth, and we delivered a landslide victory.
That was step one. Now, we go national.
Great Yarmouth First, then we Restore Britain.
History made. We won ten out of ten seats, with overwhelming majorities in every single one.
Great Yarmouth First, then we Restore Britain.
A very special day.
There continues to be an immense amount of fake news circulating around Restore Britain’s principles of immigration. Here is our position. Read it, and let me know if you agree…
Step one.
Remove the illegal migrant population. Two million? Three million? Even more? Doesn’t matter. They will all be detained, and they will all be deported.
We will of course start with the third world invaders and foreign criminals - this is a day one priority.
A Restore Britain Government would launch the largest deportation scheme in British history - we have the plan, we’ve already published the most comprehensive deportation scheme ever released. 100+ pages of it. We know how to do it. Now we are seeking the power to implement it.
The illegals are the priority. Foreign criminals go too, but that doesn’t even need discussing anymore. They’re out the door on the first flight home. What happens to them in their own country is not our problem.
Step two.
Legal migrants who can’t speak English, refuse to work, claim benefits, live in social housing, hate our way of life or even actively want to do us harm?
They go too - hopefully voluntarily. If not, they will be removed.
Dual nationals who want to kill us? Strip them off their British citizenship and send them back.
Foreign Islamists, gone. Dual national Islamists, gone. If foreigners want to live in an Islamic country, we will make that a reality for them.
This would all be twinned with drastic reductions of the number of people settling in the country, and I mean drastic.
It will be in the thousands, not the hundreds of thousands.
Who can come?
Ultra high-skilled migrants to fill gaps, and spouses of British men and women. We would ease that process, allowing Brits to bring their husband/wives into our country without the endless bureaucracy, red tape and cost - allowing them to build a family. That is positive immigration. We will encourage it.
All done alongside our Red List.
If a country is proven to supply us with sex pests, rapists, criminals and illegals? We will shut off entire visa routes. We will discriminate based on the evidence.
Afghanistan would be top of that list.
Those Afghans who came following the data breach would be removed and relocated. All of them.
The asylum system would be abolished in its entirety. ILR would be scrapped. Benefits for foreign nationals would be cancelled. Social housing currently filled with foreigners would be freed for British families. The whole immigration scam would finally end.
When a visa ends, that individual will be expected to leave Britain - that principle will be enforced for the first time in decades.
And here’s a mad idea. Our aim would be to train the millions of healthy Brits on benefits to do these jobs. This is just so painfully obvious. If they don’t like it, they lose their universal credit. Simple.
None of this is complicated. It just takes balls.
The number of people living in Britain would radically reduce - millions would go during the first five years of a Restore Britain Government. Millions.
Our immigration system would put one group of people at the top of the agenda.
The British people.
If you want all of this - vote for it. Join Restore Britain, support Restore Britain.
Put us in power, and we will get it done. I promise you that.
@RupertLowe10 As an immigrant from Australia, your terms are acceptable.
I love this country and as a guest here I am happy to be held to a higher standard of the Law than native English men and women.
People who wish to live here who aren't happy with those terms can fuck off
This is important.
A majority of the women we spoke to at our rape gang inquiry had at some stage been subject to attempted overseas trafficking by their rapists.
Please think about that. Think about what these survivors were subject to on British soil. Now imagine what that would look like in some Pakistani village. The most wicked evil imaginable.
Our inquiry holds deep and evidenced concerns that there are countless women currently being held overseas as sex slaves.
I have pressed with Government with question after question on this. Here’s a look at some of their answers from the Home Office. This is a long read, so please stay with me…
Firstly, how many girls are currently listed as missing, broken down by local authority?
“The Home Office does not hold this data centrally.”
How? How can the Home Office not even try to understand the number of missing girls?
They don’t know, and quite obviously they don’t care.
This is SO basic. But they do not hold the data. How can they even begin to plan when they don't understand the scale of the problem?
Next.
I'm told that..
“The Home Office does not collect data on police investigations following an NRM (National Referral Mechanism) referral”
But the minister tells me they are “continually looking to improve the quality and provision of modern slavery statistics.”
They at least admit there is an issue, but this is incompetence beyond belief.
How many people convicted of human trafficking or sexual exploitation offences in each of the last three calendar years were foreign nationals at the time of conviction?
I’m told the Home Office does not collect “disaggregated data on arrests or convictions for human trafficking or sexual exploitation alongside an individual’s nationality or immigration status.”
I then asked for the worst offending nationalities.
Again, no data collected.
WHY NOT?!
I tried the Ministry of Justice for the same data.
“Criminal Courts data concerning nationality is not collated by the Ministry of Justice. Data on nationality is not operationally required to progress a case and deliver a justice outcome.”
Would it not be a wise idea to collect this nationality data to better understand how to tackle it?
Another to Jess Phillips.
I asked if her Department will publish all information it holds on child sexual exploitation committed by illegal migrants?
“The information you have requested is not available from published statistics and there is no immediate intention to publish them.”
There’s a shock.
One more.
How many people were (a) charged and (b) convicted for offences related to human trafficking or sexual exploitation following National Referral Mechanism referrals in each of the last three calendar years.
“The Home Office does not collect data on police investigations specifically following an NRM referral”
“Given this, we are unable to provide the information you have requested.”
The total lack of any desire to investigate this is astonishing.
I am using every tool available to me to push this.
I tabled a motion in Parliament on rape gang overseas trafficking.
It has attracted cross-party support - from Conservatives, Northern Irish, independents and even one Reform MP (Andrew Rosindell) and one Lib Dem MP.
We are calling on the Government to initiate, as a matter of urgency, a full and properly resourced national investigation into the alleged overseas trafficking of victims connected to organised sexual exploitation.
This is the unspoken scandal of the decade.
We must all continue to push for urgent and comprehensive action.
Let’s take a look at just some Restore Britain policies, and you tell me if these make us nazi monsters…
- The largest deportation programme ever seen in Britain to remove those migrants living in our country illegally. The entire asylum system will be abolished. The boats will stop.
- Net negative immigration. Far more must leave than arrive.
- If a foreign national can’t speak English, lives in social housing, claims benefits, doesn’t work, hates our way of life - they go too. If millions go, millions go.
- Close entire visa routes from countries proven to supply us with illegals, criminals and sex pests. The immigration ‘Red List’. We will discriminate.
- Fairer spouse visas - so that British men and women can bring their spouses to Britain without the endless bureaucracy and cost currently inflicted on them.
- An overhaul of British agriculture that puts growing and farming at the heart of any policy for rural Britain. Food security is national security. Slash red tape, simplify payments, ease planning laws, encourage farm diversification and more. Crucially, help youngsters into agriculture. We will ensure a level playing field for British farmers.
- Restore Britain will force the British public sector will buy British - it will support British farmers, producers and small businesses.
- We will encourage and fund youngsters to take up apprenticeships and learn a proper skill instead of some bullshit university degree. Teach children at school the life skills they will actually need in modern Britain.
- An education system that teaches, respects and celebrates British history and the triumphant contribution our little island has made to the world.
- Businesses freed from crushing regulation, red tape and tax. Reward hard work. Let entrepreneurs enjoy their success.
- Lowest corporation tax in Europe. IR35 scrapped. VAT threshold doubled. HMRC brutally slashed back. Dividend thresholds raised.
- High streets restored. Safe, secure and welcoming. Business rates for small businesses abolished. Turkish barbers, vape shops and other suspicious businesses investigated. Graffiti cleaned, litter picked. Pavements fixed. We will make Britain clean again, and we will take pride in our communities again.
- We will implement free parking in select areas to drive back footfall from the retail parks and back into our town centres. Councils will be forced to accept common sense.
- Fly-tippers will be crushed under the law. It will not be tolerated. Foreigners indulging in the destruction of our countryside will be deported.
- Personal tax slashed. Trust families to spend their money, not the bureaucrats.
- Put pro-family policy at the heart of everything we do. If British families want to have more children, let’s use the power of the state to enable that. Make childcare more accessible and more affordable.
- Reform family courts - so that good, decent fathers, and mothers, are not kept away from their children for malicious reasons. This is important.
- Trust parents to make the best decisions for their families. A limited number of days for a term-time holiday for well-developed children. This is just common sense.
- Restore Britain will make Britain safe again. No-nonsense policing that does what it needs to do. Widespread stop and search back - accusations of racism will stop nothing. Brutal sentences for carrying a knife. Foreign criminals deported, third world sex pests removed before their feet can touch the ground.
- Welfare radically slashed back. Those who can work, will work. Litter picking, graffiti cleaning, whatever else. Don’t like it? No benefits. That simple.
- Support those Brits who genuinely need the help, particularly children, but under a Restore Britain Government the piss-take will end.
- A foreign policy that puts the British interest above all else - proudly and unapologetically. We won’t participate in never-ending foreign wars. We will act when, and only when, the British interest is served.
- Rebuild and rearm Britain. We will have a big stick, and we will wave it when we want.
- A comprehensive support system for British veterans - including fast tracked recruitment into immigration enforcement field roles.
- Arbitrary foreign aid targets that serve no British interests, gone.
- Restore Britain will reverse the creeping islamification of Britain - no burqas, sharia courts, halal slaughter and so on. Cousin marriage will be banned. If you want to sleep with your family, this is not the country for you. This is Britain, we do things our way.
- Anti-white racism, eradicated. No more DEI. The woke bullshit will end.
- Self-defence rights restored. If an intruder tries to kill you in your home, and they end up dead? So be it. That’s their problem. Pepper spray legalised.
- End the war on motorists. Cut fuel duty, no more 20mph zones. Sort out our decaying road network.
- Biological reality respected. Men are men. Women are women. No amount of surgery will ever change that.
- Inheritance tax abolished - for farms, for small businesses, for everyone. The scam will end. Death will no longer be taxed under a Restore Britain Government.
- An infrastructure first housing policy. Developers forced to fund proper infrastructure before a shovel goes in the ground. British homes for British families.
- A Government that prioritises building roads, bridges and projects HERE in Britain. Can you even imagine it?!
- We will purse a British first energy strategy. Net zero will be scrapped. Domestic energy production will be ruthlessly prioritised.
- End the lockdown legacy. Inquiry into COVID vaccine harms, lockdown convictions quashed, a truly independent look at how that was all allowed to happen.
- No Digital ID, ever. Repeal the Online Safety Act. Protect free speech.
- Defund the rotten BBC. Make it a subscription service and let it wither on the vine.
- A binding referendum on the reintroduction of the death penalty for the most evil criminals. One of my favourites.
- A national strategy, working from the findings of the rape gang inquiry, to ruthlessly tackle and decapitate the national crime network of primarily Pakistani muslim sexual slavery, torture and murder.
- Restore Britain will end political Islam. Abolish postal voting except for those in genuine need. Remove voting rights for foreign nationals.
- Foreign language translation ended, in the NHS and beyond. You live in England, you speak English.
- The NHS will be restored as the NATIONAL health service. Serving British people as its first and only priority. It will accept ultra-high skilled migrants to work, it will not support millions of low-skilled migrants who contribute nothing, yet take so much.
- Free car parking for NHS staff, patients and visitors on tight permits. We all pay for the NHS, we shouldn’t be ripped off for the sodding parking too. Especially medical staff.
- Medical school caps will be demolished. We will allow talented young British men and women to train in medicine - the NHS will then be forced to employ them over foreign staff. We will prioritise our own people.
- Reclaim our fisheries - take back our seas and take back our fish. We will take back control. Finally.
- The quangocracy will end. Power will be returned to the people through their MPs. Parliament will be empowered.
- Restore Britain will crush the parasitic state. It will all be hacked back in the most spectacular fashion. Unlike anything Britain has seen before.
I cannot wait.
A Restore Britain Government will protect our people, protect our interests, protect our borders.
We will leave you alone to build a business, work hard, raise a family and enjoy your success in a safe and secure Britain.
Finally, a political party that will put the British people first.
Restore Britain.
This man is writing poetry.
I'm a sole trader and my wife a small business owner and @RupertLowe10 and @RestoreBritain_ are the only party that gives a fuck about us
A Restore Britain Government will stand with British small businesses. Proudly and unapologetically. And no, that wouldn’t mean just posting on social media on ‘small business Saturday’ or taking the occasional picture at a local bakery. We would act, immediately. We would burn away the tax framework that has suffocated small businesses for so long. Not just reversing Labour’s recent damage, but stripping it right back to how it was decades ago.
Businesses would be left to do what they do best - succeed. Raise money, hire more people, invest in the firm. Win contracts. And then guess what?
They will pay more tax.
OBVIOUSLY.
I feel like I am smashing my head into a brick wall enduring Reeves and the gang in Parliament. Listen to me when I say this - these people know nothing. They are economically illiterate. I wouldn’t hire a single one of them. I wouldn’t trust Reeves with a small bag of pennies.
They are arrogant fools, wielding an awful lot of power.
That is a very bad combination.
Restore Britain MPs will be men and women who have succeeded in their field, particularly business. They will not be jumped-up little twerps who have kissed the right arse. We will not play those games. Britain’s tried that, and look where it’s got us. We are already recruiting. These will be proper people, I promise you that.
Because I am from a business background. I understand what it is like. Endless phone calls, zero holiday, relentless stress. Dealing with the rapid stream of ever-evolving rules and regulations. Try to speak to your local council? Good luck. It’s past lunchtime on a Friday, so why would you even expect these people to be at work? Don’t be so ridiculous.
I detest the planning department so very much. I cannot even tell you.
Running a business in 2026 Britain is hard bloody work. And nobody in Westminster understands that. There is now a political party that will fight for those entrepreneurs.
Restore Britain.
There is one solution, and one solution only - everything else comes after.
CUT TAX - right across the board. Corporation, income, dividend, business rates, national insurance and more.
The five golden rules of business, as always.
What’s in it for me? That’s just the brutal truth. Anyone who says otherwise is lying.
You need to incentivise growth. Because for many in the current system, they just think what is the point? VAT registrations trap businesses under £90k. IR35 punishes flexibility. Dividend thresholds mean working to earn that extra money is just not worth the effort. So they don’t bother. Changes to inheritance tax mean that family business owners can’t even hand it over to their children.
It will all change. Restore Britain would overhaul everything.
But policy is secondary here. Personnel is first.
We need people in Parliament who have done it. Been through it. Understand it. Taken those work calls on holiday when the spouse is getting pissed off. Dealt with cashflow problems, chased late invoices, waded from the endless HR bullshit.
Anyone who has done a self-assessment will hate the British state as much as I do. And I really do hate the British state.
I want those people alongside me in Parliament. Restore Britain is going to put those people into Westminster.
That is our plan. To replace the self-serving political establishment with men and women who get how business works.
A political party that understands what small business owners are going through.
That political party is Restore Britain.
Restore Britain is abundantly clear about what we stand for on immigration. THIS is our position. I urge you to read, and share if you agree.
Every illegal migrant will be deported. No questions asked. The boats will stop. Our 100+ page policy plan is produced and ready to go. It can be done. My position is well understood on this.
Legal migrants will be expected to work, contribute, speak our language and respect our way of life. If they don't do that, they'll be asked to leave.
If they hate us, and wish to do us harm - they will leave.
We support net negative immigration. Taking ultra-skilled migrants who will give far more than they take in small and manageable numbers, but shutting off entire visa routes from countries that are proven to supply us with miscreants and takers. The Red List.
Those foreign individuals who are here, who work hard, who contribute to society will absolutely be welcome.
But we will not allow millions of foreigners, mainly from the third world, to take the piss.
If a foreign national is unable to support themselves financially, it is not our problem. They should leave. We should not pay for their benefits, their social housing, their NHS care.
Again - it is not our problem.
They will go home. Millions will go.
Firm, but fair.
Dual nationals who want to blow us up will have their British citizenship stripped, and deported. If they rape young girls, they will have their citizenship stripped, and deported.
The spouse visa system will be eased, to allow citizens of non-red list countries to join their British partners.
There are underhand attempts to misrepresent our position. Ignore it. Send them this post.
We speak for ourselves, and only ourselves.
This is not controversial. This is certainly not 'neo-nazi' as Reform claim.
This is the position of the vast majority of the British people, and they finally have a political party representing that view now.
Restore Britain.
@triggerpod As a self employed immigrant from Australia married to a British woman who is a small business owner, the only choice is @RestoreBritain_@RupertLowe10 my children are British and I want them fiercely proud of their country
