Hello friends,
I’ve made the decision to wrap up this account, partly for reasons of account security and a change in email, and partly because I feel there’s only so much value in writing from behind an anonymous account, so, in an effort to change all that, I’m moving everything over to my new account: @AlbionAlexander.
I’d really appreciate a follow.
If we’re mutuals here but I haven’t followed you over there yet, please let me know and I’ll rectify it immediately.
Thank you!

I have seen some accounts suggesting Rupert will be splitting the vote with the launch of his new political party. With all the parties on the political right, I do see where they're coming from.
That said, the idea of “splitting the vote” assumes there is more than one right-wing party intent on and able to, deliver the changes Britain so desperately needs. I do not think that is the case. I no more see this as splitting the vote than I see the Conservatives and Labour as splitting it.
The reason being, much like the Tories and conservatives are, at least theoretically, separate parties built on different political philosophies, I think the various parties on the political right are very much the same.
I see Reform as a future disappointment. As a Tory 2.0.
I saw Advance as promising, but extremely unlikely to secure sufficient support in time.
With the launch of Restore though, I see the only party, that could possibly be able to make the changes many of us understand must be made to pull Britain out from the fire. I genuinely believe this may be our last chance at a political solution to the mess in which we find our island home.
What happens next is obviously unclear.
Reform could haemorrhage support to Restore. Advance could merge into it. Or nothing may come of this and Reform could secure a parliamentary majority, with the inevitable disappointment, and all that comes with it.
I think the truth lies somewhere between those two realities, but we will have to see.
I also believe, that if Reform win and are absolutely awful, it is the most likely possibility that the steam behind right-wing politics gets tapered off rather than it acting as an accelerant for a better party to drive the by that time even more desperately needed changes at a time when it is quite possibly too late.
While all that plays out, the borders remain a suggestion and our demographic share continues to shrink.
Food for thought, anyway.
Rupert Lowe’s new Restore Britain party, backed by Elon Musk and Tommy Robinson, threatens to derail Nigel Farage’s bid to become the next PM…
…. But there’s little room for gloating. Lowe’s vile anti-immigrant and racist agenda threatens to tear our communities apart
All good!
I have genuinely considered it. I have a background in a field that would probably be useful, and have thought about emailing their recruitment team to offer weekend help on a voluntary basis. I even set up an alternative, more professional X account, which I have not posted from, in case a cleaner social media presence was required. If I go ahead, I'll DM you the username.
That said, I am still on the fence. I have recently made some pretty huge career decisions, so I need to weigh it all up carefully.
One way or another, I will do what I can to push this forward though.
It is genuinely incredible to see accounts from across the full spectrum of right-wing thought aligned on this. That level of agreement is rare.
I do not disagree with a single word of this.
I hope my previous post did not come across as pessimistic. I am, in fact, quite the opposite. For the first time in a while, I am cautiously optimistic about the near future. That does not mean the hurdles are not real. They are, and it seems we both recognise them.
We are on the same page, as we often are.
Victory is the only option.
Here's why I believe in Restore Britain:
The men running Restore Britain have been my closest friends for years. They came to my wedding. We've hosted barbecues at one another's homes.
We've been on personal, political, and faith journeys together, and have had each other's backs when we stood to gain nothing.
They are honest, decent, courageous men. If my brothers believe in Restore, then so do I.
The late Peter Whittle used to host seminars featuring the think-tanks, commentators, and politicians on the right. One hosted Rupert Lowe as its speaker in late 2024.
Rupert used his speech to convince the room to support Reform, and then spent an hour listening to concerns from Harrison, Downes, and me about Reform's rhetoric about deportations and Islam. He thanked us, and said we were the sort of men who should stand as candidates.
Without Peter Whittle, Restore Britain would not exist. But in the last year of Peter's life, Reform UK prevented their candidates from appearing on the New Culture Forum, calling the outlet "too far right."
Rupert didn't care. He was the only one who spoke to Peter before he passed. The rest of Reform will never get the opportunity to sit down with Peter, because they were too afraid while he was alive.
Peter was a good man. Rupert is a good man. Our late hour calls for good men, with courage, to stand up and be counted.
And so, to honour Peter's legacy, and because I trust my friends, I am supporting @RestoreBritain_. And so should you.
I thought the same.
He lays out some of Reform’s weakest points and then kind of says “but It is what it is, stay in your pod, eat your bugs, make the best of what you are given, and do not reach for anything better because you might fail."
Not sure if subversive or just unironically lacks spirit. Which is hard to pass judgement on to be fair, it's been a while since we've had any genuinely good news, politically speaking.
On day one of a Restore Britain Government, both halal and kosher slaughter would be outlawed.
In Britain, we treat our animals with care - we do not brutally butcher them alive.
It's cruel, it's sick, it's barbaric.
Restore Britain would ban it.

Donald Trump is 79.
Rupert is 68 and appears to be in good health. Everyone I am aware of within Restore seems capable, aligned, and fully on the same page as Lowe.
I have no idea whether Restore will ultimately come to fruition, though I of course hope it does. But the idea that Lowe is “too old” is ridiculous.
This sounds like a dystopian nightmare.
It reads like the final act of an apocalyptic film, where people from everywhere are herded into some kind of 'ark', torn from their roots, stripped of what they knew, and forced to exist side by side in cramped, hostile conditions until their homelands are deemed habitable again and they are permitted to return to where they belong.
Walk down any city high street and you’ll see Jamaican bakeries next to Punjabi spice shops. You’ll hear Somali mums chatting with Liverpudlian dads while their kids play football in accents no one can quite place but everyone understands.
That’s not a crisis. That’s the cure.
