Be kind

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

I have been married for 40 years now - four children, two grandchildren. The best decision was ever made was building our family. It is an appalling shame that so many British men and women feel unable to do the same for reasons outside of their control. My generation has spectacularly failed them all. We need to own up to that, and we need to fix it.

There is finally a pro-family political party that will reverse so much of the damage done - Restore Britain.

How?

Tax breaks for parents. Let working men and women keep more of what they earn to spend how they choose. This is THE most important policy above all else. Merge tax allowances for married couples. Trust families to spend their money, not the Government.

A Restore Britain Government will front-load child benefit. Pay more in the earlier years when the help is needed. Wouldn’t cost a penny, but would mean that parents get help when they really need it buying prams, cots, nappies etc.

This would be exclusively for British children with one or two British parents.

Widen VAT exemptions for child-related items, and expand tax-deductible childcare costs.

Reducing tax obviously helps, but we need more - Restore Britain would make childcare fully tax deductible. All hours.

Regulation should be eased so that ratios aren’t so strict, with more children per adult allowed. Encourage youngsters into childcare with proper bursaries, apprenticeships and so on. Tax incentives for more nurseries/pre-schools.

Foreign children with foreign parents would not be eligible for free childcare paid for by the taxpayer.

If a healthy Brit is on benefits and refuses to work? They will not receive free childcare. You’ve got the time, look after your child. Working parents should be given the help. Not the healthy indolent.

The two-child cap would be reinstated.

If you want more children but can’t be bothered to work? That’s your problem, not the taxpayer.

Restore Britain will abolish stamp duty for British families (full policy coming soon). Priority on social housing lists. No foreign national families in social housing would free up an enormous amount of space for British men and women to build their family.

Restore Britain would overhaul spousal visas - British citizens should be able to raise their families in Britain with a foreign spouse, without being treated like criminals by the Home Office. This would be alongside the ‘red list’ to crush fraud. That is positive immigration, and should be welcomed. Restore Britain will welcome it.

IVF and fertility treatment. There should be proper investment in helping those who struggle to have children naturally. Not brutally rationed as it currently is. More rounds, more chances. This would not be offered to the entire third world as it is now - it would all be funded by simply not doing that.

A Restore Britain Government would allow parents to take their children out of school for a limited number of term-time days per year, as the parents see fit. If the child is developing well, that is a decision for the parents. A small change that will save families thousands...

Restore Britain stands with the young British men and women who want to build a family.

Most importantly, our wider plan of restoration will give them the confidence they need to have children, to bring them into the world. On tax, deportations, crime. Everything. It all needs to change to restore belief. That is our objective.

Our plan will make a family possible for millions more British men and women - this is how we Restore Britain.

Today we mark National Police Memorial Day, which is especially poignant after the tragic death of #SgtMattRatana on Friday.
We remember all of the officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty protecting the public. #NPMD20

I’m not a conspiracy theorist, BUT I’ve got to say what everyone is thinking! How much more can we take? Forget the #virus our world is falling apart! Enough is Enough! More people are dying of so much more. Our economy is in the toilet. We must stop this now. Am I wrong?

If we lock-down again, why will that help defeat the virus. When we re-emerge from lockdown (again), why will it be different. Why will there not be a third, fourth or fifth wave. And how is this strategy even remotely sustainable.
