It’s important to know that the social media ban for under 16s is not a ban for under 16s.
It is a ban on *selected* social media for EVERYONE. Until you identify yourself.
The ban on social media for children under 16 is an idea that has merits. But the way it is being done is simply a way to force everyone, including adults, to identify themselves online, creating the most powerful surveillance and censorship architecture in human history.
How would a Restore Britain Government support small businesses? First step, and possibly the most important. We understand the problems and trust me, I know how difficult it is. I’ve been there, I’ve done it. The effort that goes into keeping a small firm profitable and operational is vast, and NOBODY in Government understands that.
THE most important way to help small businesses is tax.
GET IT DOWN. Corporation tax - we should be aiming for the lowest in Europe. Undercut our neighbours, take their business. Be ruthless. Make Britain the most attractive place to operate on the continent. Watch how the money then flows in.
Rates will slashed on income and dividend, thresholds pushed up. We must urgently reward success. NI not raised, but cut. If we want businesses to hire, MAKE IT CHEAPER.
Because what happens when employment gets more expensive?
Costs get passed on. Contracts stall. Hiring cancelled. Investment is paused. It grinds the economy to a halt. Businesses stop spending money. They wait and see.
Everyone suffers.
IR35 will go in the bin on day one. Things change, contracts change, circumstances change. IR35 accounts for none of that, adding layers of unnecessary paperwork and regulation. Flexibility matters.
VAT threshold would be doubled. There are so many businesses hovering just under £90k, desperately avoiding VAT. Fair enough, I don’t blame them. So let’s hike the threshold and unleash that demand. We would like to see a tax holiday for small businesses in the first few years - give them the breathing space they need to grow and find their feet.
HMRC will pick up the phone, and you will be able to speak to an advisor who can actually speak fluent English. What a mad shock that would be...
We will end the HR-ification of Britain that is used to blackmail employers. Regulatory frameworks that are used to suffocate small businesses will be burnt away.
Farage attacks private sector employees working from home. I couldn’t give a shit where people choose to work. If the employer and employee are happy, then it’s none of our business.
Failing public sector officials? Different story.
Business rates for small businesses, abolished. We will brutally crack down on illicit trading - does Britain need so many Turkish barbers and vape shops? The answer, quite obviously, is no. Let’s be honest about what’s really often going on here. Money laundering.
There would be free car parking in high streets all over Britain. These little gnomes in councils have no idea. If parking is free at the retail parks, people will just go there. Let’s encourage them back into our high streets - that means tackling crime too, obviously, but one step a time here...
Licensing laws, planning bureaucracy, council red tape.
We will obliterate it all.
Let’s back British hospitality. Cut VAT, business rates abolished and burn back the endless nonsense they have to deal with. Ease laws on closing times and fast-track permits for outdoor seating. If people want to enjoy a late night drink or two, it's none of our business to tell them otherwise.
Restore Britain will put those jumped-up little council bastards back in their box. I promise you that.
Inheritance tax will be abolished. If a family wants to pass their business down the generations, then Government must not stand in the way. Tax has been paid, there should not be another bill following a death. It’s wicked and cruel.
Above all else - businesses need stable, long term thinking. The Budget should be a complete non-event, other than further tax cuts.
This can all be funded by brutalising down the fraudulent state that has become the enemy of the people.
And let me tell you this. ANYBODY who gets business will understand that these measures will pay for themselves many times over. If we reward hard work, then we’ll get more of it. More tax will be paid, and the economy will boom.
These are just my initial thoughts on what a Restore Britain Government would do.
We would create an environment in which it's easy to do business, and then we would leave you the hell alone.
The message is this to small business owners...
Restore Britain is on your side.
You finally have a political party that will fight for your interests.
An incredible 2,500 business owners have now signed our open letter to Reeves, urging her to change course on business rates.
SO many industries represented, from right across the country.
Business owners - if you agree, please sign and share.

🚨 NEIL OLIVER JUST SAID WHAT MILLIONS STILL WON’T 🚨
When history is written, Neil Oliver will be remembered as one of the few who refused to bow to the lie.
Tonight he laid out, calmly and bravely, what those in power still cannot admit:
86% of PCR test results were wrong.
Not slightly off—wrong.
Those faulty tests were not harmless errors.
They dictated life and death decisions:
• Whether you could visit dying loved ones
• Whether a person could travel
• Whether a business survived
• Whether a parent kept their job
• Whether you could move freely in your own country
Billions were made—families were destroyed.
And the very people who engineered this catastrophe remain exactly where they were:
Still promoted
Still honoured
Still rewarded
While those who questioned it—like Neil Oliver, Bev Turner, Jimmy Dore, and a handful of others—were mocked, demonised, censored, ridiculed, and punished.
Neil said it perfectly:
For years, telling the truth was treated as the crime.
Now we discover the real crime was committed by those who locked down the world on a lie.
Millions knew.
Millions warned.
Millions suffered.
And not one official apology.
Not one accountability hearing with consequences.
Not one resignation.
Neil Oliver has done what journalism was supposed to do:
He told the truth when it mattered.
He stood when most kneeled.
He refused to pretend.
And for that, he deserves respect.
We owe him gratitude.
We owe those harmed justice.
We owe future generations honesty.
Neil Oliver is not just asking when people will accept the truth…
He is forcing the world to confront it.
And that is leadership.

Reeves dumps the big pile of shite on the doorstep of every small business in Britain, then just forgets about it and moves on with her life. Salary safe, job safe. No concerns about paying the bills in the Reeves household, or indeed any of the civil servants who devised this skip fire of a budget.
They don’t care. They don’t understand, but more important they just don’t care.
Straight out of university, work for some anonymous Labour MP, maybe a think tank or a charity if we’re feeling adventurous. Then straight into life as a backbench MP or some random civil servant in the Treasury. How many have run a business? Created wealth? Generated jobs? Done anything?! SOD ALL.
It’s easy looking at the spreadsheets. Thinking oh a dividend rate rise here, or freezing that threshold - that’ll cover the numbers needed to hike up welfare. There are VERY real world consequences to all of these decisions.
Businesses are still reeling from the NI changes last year. And I mean reeling. Not enormous businesses had to find £300k? Possibly more to cover these rises?
What happens then, Rachel?
Costs get passed on. Contracts stall. Hiring cancelled. Investment paused. It grinds the economy to a halt. Businesses stop spending money. Redundancies. OBVIOUSLY.
How can they not understand this? Honestly? I cannot fathom the sheer vastness of their incompetence. All of this to fund those who choose not to work. Leaves a real sour taste in the mouth, doesn’t it?
Running a business is hard work, bloody hard work. It doesn’t just happen, and it doesn’t just work. It takes years of long days and sleepless nights. All that, with lots and lots of risk. There is no backup or a safety net. It works, or it doesn’t work. It’s brutal. I’m sorry to say that the vast majority of my MP colleagues simply do not understand that.
It is overwhelmingly depressing.
The ONLY way to get the economy firing is to reduce tax, reduce the size of the state and let businesses do what they do best - make money.
And actually, if you let them keep more of it? They’ll do more. Work more. Pay more tax.
THAT is how you grow the economy. That is the ONLY way.
If you work. If you aspire. If you save. If you ask for nothing and want peace and freedom to get on with providing for your loved ones, the British state despises you and will do anything and everything to take you down.
Evidence from a ‘modelling study’
Is this a joke ? Such models aren’t even in the hierarchy of evidence based medicine. Also what about the infinitely more harmful collateral damage of lockdowns?

Wow.
Our governments- both Tory and Labour- have been trying to install Digital ID worldwide for years.
They are actively trying to install a new world order- messing with other countries politics.
They now want to implement it here.
We say NO.
Reject Digital ID.
It’s not about energy. The wider ideology is about making people poor by any and every means. De-industrialisation, unemployment, lowered standards of living. Then there's the destruction of family and community. It’s a demolition project.
I sit in Parliament listening to these ministers, and it’s all just so depressing - the vast majority of them have never run a business, and it SHOWS. You would not believe how bad it is.
They think ‘work’ means turning up to an office between 9 and 5, answering a few emails, and going home at the end of the day. Nice lunch break, few coffees away from the desk, probably a smoking break or several. It doesn’t - not for the millions of men and women who actually create the wealth that funds the state.
Running a small business isn’t a job. It’s a way of life. It is life. It’s 24/7/365. It’s relentless. You are the accountant, HR department, compliance officer, cleaner, marketer, and customer service team - all in one. There’s no sick pay, no safety net, and no taxpayer-funded pension waiting for you.
Holiday? Good luck. If you do manage to get away, it’s checking the phone all day, every day. Wife/husband obviously getting pissed off. We’ve all been there...
It’s all on you. Every invoice chased, every tax deadline met, every bit of red tape navigated is on you. And if you make one mistake, one error, one small slip-up, the state comes after you - in a relentlessly efficient manner that is never afforded to us when we ask questions of it.
Most MPs have no idea what that feels like. They just don’t. We’re going to see more of this in the budget I’m sure. More hurt. More pain. More tax. They don’t get it.
They don’t understand that when a small business owner gets hit with another tax, it’s not absorbed by a ‘budget’ - it’s taken straight out of their family’s pocket.
There is no ‘deficit’ in the business world - that’s called going bust.
And they certainly don’t understand what real risk looks like. Politicians can vote through a policy on Monday and forget it by Tuesday - a small business owner lives with the consequences of that policy for years, decades. The MP monthly salary is safe. It always has been. In the public sector before, and in the public sector after - if not that, some charity/NGO funded entirely by the public sector.
GET A REAL JOB.
If MPs actually spent a week running a small firm - paying suppliers, tackling VAT, navigating health and safety law, sorting out HR issues, chasing clients for payment, trying to expand while staying compliant with everything from GDPR to local planning regulations - they’d legislate very differently. I can promise you that.
They’d realise that most of Britain’s problems could be solved by the state doing less, not more.
Cutting tax. Simplifying regulation. Slashing back the HRification of the country. Trusting people who actually produce things to get on with it.
Instead, we have a political class that talks endlessly about ‘growth’ while brutally punishing the only people capable of delivering it - especially going after the family businesses/farms, which is a particularly spiteful policy decision.
Small business owners are people who work harder than almost anyone in Parliament could imagine - and who are treated worse for it.
Britain’s small businesses don’t succeed because of politicians, they survive in spite of them.
After almost 3 million people signed a petition against Digital ID the Starmer's government confirmed it will press ahead.
Watch this episode to understand why everyone, left and right, must oppose this un-British abomination.
In the same way that masks didn’t stop “covid”, digital IDs don’t stop “immigration”. Neither covid nor an immigrant are the real danger. The real danger is your government, no matter which puppet is its nominal head.
Digital ID has nothing to do with immigration, just think critically for 3 seconds.
Britain currently has up to 1 million illegal immigrants. Many, if not most, are known to the authorities. And yet they're still here. The reason they're here is NOT that we can't identify them (the problem Digital ID is supposed to solve), the problem is that we won't deport them even when we know who they are.
This is not about immigration, it's about building CONTROL INFRASTRUCTURE. It's why Blair tried and failed to push them through 20 years ago.
Imagine that governments which routinely arrest people for jokes and memes, locked people in their homes during COVID and think half the country is "far right" have these tools at its disposal.
And, some of you are convinced half the country really is "far right" and are about to elect that evil fascist Herr Farage. You want him to have this control infrastructure at his disposal?
This needs to be opposed by everyone across the political spectrum. It has nothing to do with what you're being told: Starmer is lying to you and so are his media lackeys.
