Hope Not Hate Lough

Celebrating Loughborough's diversity. Challenging myths with positive stories.

Let's get the truth out there...taken from the actual cabinet papers approved in February 2026 by the Reform UK Cabinet.

[Nick Lowles @lowles_nick]

We ignore Rupert Lowe’s Gang Rape Inquiry report at our peril

It might be based on clear falsehoods and have used dodgy and carefully-curated data to support a fervent anti-Muslim narrative, but Lowe’s report will be believed by millions and will be used to escalate racism and deepen community tensions.

By linking rape almost exclusively to race he has diminished the scope and magnitude of the crime and has done a serious disservice to victims.

Last night a violent protest erupted in Southampton, following the release of new footage relating to the horrifying murder of Henry Nowak.

Far-right actors flocked to the event, which culminated in two arrests, with more expected in coming days.

And in today's Reform UK Ltd fraud news: Sarah Pochin MP has been caught using a paid crisis actor in a propaganda video.
The actor was once dubbed 'Britain's biggest benefits cheat.'
She has since deleted the video, but an LBC reporter recorded it, much to her chagrin.

⁨Nigel Farage has yet again been complaining about the work of HOPE not hate, so what exactly has got him so rattled?

Well done Arsenal! Leicester will be back! 🤞

[Larry the Cat @Number10cat]

Keir Starmer is currently jumping around Downing Street. Either Arsenal have won the league or someone's dug up some dirt on Andy Burnham... #kitileaks

Just putting this back up here. Meet your Makerfield Reform activist Dylan Carey

Congratulations to @reformparty_uk they have beaten their previous record of losing councillors, set in 2025.
Depending on the area, a by-election can cost tax payers £25k to £35k.
So thanks to their rubbish vetting, Reform have just cost you approx £300,000.
#Chaos

[HOPE not hate @hopenothate]

Reform's vetting failed. Now its leadership is failing too.

Tice was asked to condemn Gibbins's racist comments today and couldn't do it.

[Deborah Taylor @CllrDTaylor]

😮 Shocking to hear that since May 2025, councils led by @reformparty_uk have stopped participating in the East Midlands Prevent Elected Members Network, leading to the group folding.

🚨Keeping people safe is one of our priorities

❓Public safety should never be optional

[Hope Not Hate Lough @LoughHope]

Reform means division & hate

[HOPE not hate @hopenothate]

Reform’s local elections campaign in Bradford is off to a terrible start ❌

[HOPE not hate @hopenothate]

Rupert Lowe’s Restore Britain has been attracting more and more extreme figures, including fascists and ethnonationalists.

Why do these people see Lowe as their man?

And why has Lowe refused to disavow them?

[Reform Party UK Exposed 🇬🇧 @reformexposed]

There’s a by-election coming in #Leicestershire Council for Narborough & Whetstone. Caused by Reform UK councillor Andrew Thorp resigning.

The Reform candidate - Dee North is a former parish councillor in the division who got booted off that council for… NON ATTENDANCE.
