This is unacceptable.

The University of Oxford has a duty to protect free speech from militant protestors.

Today I have written to the Chancellor of Oxford University @WilliamJHague urging him to investigate this matter and put in place the measures to enable these lectures to proceed peacefully.

Free speech is in crisis on campus.

We must do all we can to protect it.

[Martin Lewis @MartinSLewis]

Important. Please share.

The govt is doing a review of access to face-to-face banking. For many elderly and vulnerable people in person banking is crucial and we need to protect it. The review wants your view, you can feed in here... https://t.co/vcOGgz9l5i

Night night sweet dreamies 🧡

Don’t let the noise of other people’s opinions drown out your own inner voice.

There is no shame in asking for help.

Even the tiniest meow can be heard by someone who cares.

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

I am a member of the Public Accounts Committee in Parliament and we have just released our findings on Britain’s broken asylum system. It is beyond damning.

Some extracts from our report…

“…Government departments still do not have a grip on how they will manage asylum as an end-to-end system, or a clear sense of what they are trying to achieve.”

“Major policy risks and operational changes have been pursued without a realistic grip on delivery risks, costs or system-wide impacts.”

“…no single point of accountability for outcomes or a governance structure for the end-to-end system.”

“…absence of a clear strategy, decisions around planning and resource allocation have been reactive and disjointed.”

“The Home Office was unable to show… that it has the commercial capabilities needed to manage asylum accommodation effectively.”

“…weaknesses in its ability to prevent excess profits accruing for contractors…”

“…no evidence that lessons from past mistakes are being used to clearly inform current actions.”

“Poor data quality and weak management information continue to prevent effective management…”

“…current data sharing limitations make it impossible to directly track individual cases through the entire asylum process.”

“The Home Office does not yet have a credible long-term strategy for asylum accommodation…”

“… there is little evidence the Home Office fully understands the impact of its approach on local services.”

“The government is at considerable risk of repeating past failures.”

But don’t worry, the government says it has a plan...

It says it has “learned a lot of lessons”.

And that it’s going to put 10,000 civil servants into what they call an “Asylum Group”.

Funded by us, of course.

How about improving data-linking systems?

The Ministry of Justice says it simply needs more of our money.

And what about ending the use of hotels and transferring to larger, “purpose-driven” sites?

“The Home Office’s own analysis suggests that large sites will cost more than hotels, as seen in previously costly attempts such as Wethersfield.”

The numbers…

£4.9 billion spent on the system each year, including:
£2.7 billion on asylum accommodation
£700 million on cash support
£600 million on unaccompanied asylum-seeking children
Nearly £1 billion on casework, appeals, detention, and removal

All spent to produce between 50,000 or so refugees each year.

And of course, these costs don’t include what is then paid by us, the taxpayer, in Local Authority housing, welfare, childcare assistance, and advice and translation services once once they receive their refugee status and are no longer in the asylum system.

Want more?

At the time of the NAO report (December 2025), Home Office reported there were roughly 224,000 individuals still waiting in the system, excluding those awaiting an initial asylum decision.

Further, since April 2024, MoJ say the number of asylum seekers waiting for an appeal decision alone has trebled, from 27,000 to 70,000, with appeals taking nearly 60 weeks to be heard.

Who pays for them while they wait over a year for a decision?

Us.

And the tens of thousands of failed asylum seekers each year - what happens to them?

The Home Office isn’t sure.

It says it knows “where some of them are”, but the rest are “elsewhere in the country”, and that it is possible they “remain in the UK without detection”.

Don’t fear though, because the Home Office won’t guarantee that it will find them, only that it would “seek to find them”. Whatever the hell that means…

And to deal with the backlog of cases and appeals?

“Home Office relaxed its recruitment arrangements, resulting in newly recruited staff being ill-suited to making complex decisions on asylum cases, which in turn affected decision quality.”

The result?

“In a rolling twelve months to May 2025, 42% of sampled decisions had significant or fail errors.”

Astounding incompetence.

But there’s more good news...

The MoJ is recruiting even more over-paid salaried and fee-paid judges, as well as recruiting judges from other chambers to sit in asylum cases.

In other words, MoJ’s response is to spend more of our money and remove judges from other work.

This is because more asylum seekers “are now representing themselves and that this requires additional support from tribunal staff.”

“The system of monitoring failed asylum seekers needs a complete overhaul,” says the report.

I have a better idea. My own view?

Scrap the entire system altogether, and deport every single illegal migrant living in Britain.

And to those of you say that it’s impossible - to any MPs, public servants, or commentators who think I’m cherry-picking information, I implore you to read every word of the PAC report, every word of the NAO report, and to watch every minute of the 2.5 hour PAC meeting from earlier this year…

And then tell me that the system is working, and that’s it’s delivering value for money, and that it’s sustainable.

It isn’t. And it never will be.

It is an intentional, monumental catastrophe designed to cripple the nation economically, socially, and culturally.

A Restore Britain government will crush the entire asylum system as its first duty to the British people.

Deport them all.

[Martin Lewis @MartinSLewis]

A few people not quite getting the point saying "but you recommeded Quotum". Of course I didn't, I don't do adverts. This was a fake news story by scammers (ie organised crime) pretending to report me saying something on the TV!

[Martin Lewis @MartinSLewis]

THEY ARE BASTARDS!

We just got an email sent to MSE. The spelling was awful, and it was quite tough to understand. Lower down, the writer later explained she was 78 and her disability had stopped her being able to spell. So perhaps it is a stroke, or something similar.

I've tidied it and summarised below, changing some identifying details. In a nutshell, it was this...

"I invested, Martin, with Quotum when you first announced it on TV. What an opportunity for me to buy my own flat. My manager there passed me through to a nice man who asked me for £350 more. He showed me it was growing. I did what he told me to do."

She then goes on to explain how she really wanted her flat and she gave more and more money. And she has nothing left to help with her disability.

I'm honestly in tears typing this. These types of scam ads have now been going on for a decade. I have spent my career trying to help people with their finances. It feels visceral to get this, and to feel that this reputation has been perverted by criminals to steal from someone who is clearly so vulnerable leaves me feeling nauseous.

So many people, both vulnerable and not, lose money and see their lives and wellbeing destroyed. It's now seven years since I sued Facebook. And yet still nothing is being done.

Big tech makes £3bn a year from these scammers. We have a law in place to make them responsible for these ads they're paid to publish, yet it isn't implemented. How many more of these do I have to receive - and far worse, how many more people have to go through this?

This is relentless. It is wrong. Government has to take action! I wrote to the PM just two weeks ago on this very issue. I've not heard back yet.

(We are, of course, going to try and point her in the right direction to get help, but that will be stressful for her too)

If all you can see right now is darkness

Perhaps the strength, hope, or kindness you’re looking for hasn’t disappeared at all.

Perhaps it’s been quietly travelling with you the whole time.

[Brylaine Travel @BrylaineTravel]

Exciting news for local travel!

We’re pleased to share that a new Brylaine bus service is planned to launch from 6th July, supported by Lincolnshire County Council and BSIP funding (subject to final approvals).

The new B617 service will connect:
Lincoln - Billinghay -Tattershall -Woodhall Spa -Coningsby - Woodhall Spa - Horncastle

The service takes its name from the legendary RAF 617 Squadron, once proudly based at Woodhall Spa, a fitting tribute to local heritage.

Routes and timetables will be confirmed closer to the start date, so watch this space for further updates.

This is a positive step towards improving rural connectivity and making it easier to travel between our communities.

We look forward to sharing more details soon, and to welcoming you onboard! 🚍

❓Labour: “Who can we tax in order to pay benefits to others?”

From the Family Farm and the Family Business Taxes to the Fertiliser Tax, Business Rates and National Insurance hikes, why should hard-working farmers, pub landlords, rural businesses and communities be pushed to the brink to pay for Labour’s ballooning benefits bill?

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

Blatant election interference from a disgraced BBC.

The BBC and the entire British establishment despises Restore Britain and the democratic option we are offering to the British people.

[Jan Vowhagan @2techie4me]

Whether you agree with @RestoreBritain or not, when the party polling third is excluded from a UK wide platform in favour of those in fourth, fifth, and sixth, it looks more and more like a massive stitch up. As a Makerfield constituent the public interest isn't being served here

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

The BBC has just released a statement about their outrageous decision to exclude Restore Britain from yesterday’s Makerfield Question Time - explaining they consider ‘panel selection carefully’ and they ‘recognise the multi-party nature of UK politics’.

This is the most blatant example of BBC bias I have ever witnessed - it is scandalous.

They had the irrelevant Lib Dems and Tories, along with the Greens. We will outpoll all of them combined, easily.

Ask yourself. Why is the rotten establishment so desperate to censor Restore Britain?

Here is why.

Restore Britain’s policy platform is robust and unapologetic.

We will do what needs to be done.

- 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 nonsense 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.

- Exemptions for barbaric religious practices will be removed. Gladly.

- Anti-white racism, eradicated. No more DEI. The Equality Act repealed, along with the various iterations of the Race Relations Act.

- 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. Motorway speed limit raised to 80mph. Sort out our decaying road network.

- Biological reality respected. Men are men. Women are women. No amount of surgery will ever change that. That filth will be kept away from children.

- 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. Nuclear, oil/gas, fracking. We will make it happen.

- 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 could go on.

This is a platform that millions and millions of British men and women are agreeing with.

The BBC does not want you to hear about it. So please, tell your friends/family. Get the message out there.

There is finally a political party with the balls to put you all first - to put the British people first.

Restore Britain.
