Positive news. Restore Britain now has over 90% of constituencies covered with 385 operational branches - more coming online all of the time.
More to do, but the infrastructure we have built since March is remarkable. Restore Britain is ready for any national election.
I don't know if @JeremyClarkson is aware of all the capcut videos he's in over on TikTok, they're ace. There's too many to share individually so i've put some of the best ones in one video 🤣
People of my generation should be very careful when they're crowing about sending young men to war against Russia, Iran or whoever else.
Our lifetimes have been almost entirely peaceful - we have not had to watch an entire generation of young men marched off to fight and die in a foreign land.
We have been blessed with peace.
Yet some of the loudest voices demanding conscription or the dropping of bombs are men who will never be asked to fight. They have profited from that peace, lived comfortable lives from that peace.
It's very easy to be brave with somebody else's blood on the line.
There are circumstances in which our nation must fight, but our aim must be to give young men a reason to believe in that fight, to give them a Britain worth defending.
Because millions of young white men are looking at a system that hates them, that has made them strangers in their own towns, that has decimated their industry?
Why on earth would they bleed for that?
I agree.
Our establishment has spent years alienating young white men and now they suddenly remember their value when they need those lads to fight their wars.
Restore Britain's duty is to give these young men a country worth fighting for, certainly NOT another endless foreign war to die in.
I want to address an allegation directly, because Reform politicians seem determined to spread the idea that I am somehow working in coordination with the Conservative Party and Kemi Badenoch.
Yes, I was a member of the Conservative Party. In 1993. My children have since been born and grown up. It was more than thirty years ago. Literally, a lifetime ago. Many of the Reform leadership certainly can’t say the same.
Yes, I've met Kemi Badenoch. I speak to her occasionally. I like her personally. We have worked together in Parliament. She spoke positively about our rape gang inquiry, and I thanked her for it.
Numerous Conservative MPs have supported my parliamentary work, including our inquiry.
Esther McVey. Nick Timothy. Jack Rankin. Peter Bedford. I could go on.
I am not going to apologise for that.
I will work with anyone in Parliament who is prepared to help deliver meaningful change. We have achieved results by doing precisely that.
Does that mean I forgive the Conservatives for what they did to Britain between 2010 and 2024?
Absolutely not. It was a betrayal.
I have literally established a national political party to fight them at the ballot box. I am delighted when we beat them, which is a growing amount. All that should be a fairly substantial clue…
But opposing a political party does not require you to behave like a petulant child towards every single person associated with it.
Conservative MPs believed I would do a good job on the Public Accounts Committee. I accepted the opportunity to scrutinise government spending and fight for British taxpayers.
Again, absolutely no apologies. I think we have delivered results.
Now let's compare that with Reform.
Reform tried to have me imprisoned over false allegations. I would be in prison today if they had their way.
Despite everything, I have repeatedly attempted to work with Reform MPs in Parliament. I have invited them to support initiatives, collaborate on important issues and help deliver results.
Time and again, those invitations have been ignored. My emails don’t even get a reply. I happily sign their motions and support their efforts, I did earlier this week. The feeling is not mutual.
They complain. They moan. They attack. They endlessly manufacture personal grievances.
But ask them to put their animosities aside and actually achieve something together?
Suddenly, it's total silence.
I've received more constructive support in Parliament from Labour MPs than from Reform.
Think about that.
It is grievance politics at its most pathetic. Negative, unproductive and deeply unprofessional.
My position is incredibly straightforward.
At elections, we are opponents. In Parliament, we have a responsibility to get things done. I believe that is what our constituents want us to do. Maybe I’m wrong, but I think not.
Reform claim we stand in more local council Reform seats than anyone else. Yes, because so many more Reform councillors resign in disgrace than any other party. We are moving towards standing in 100% of local council by-elections. We’ve stood in Reform seats, Labour seats, Tory seats.
Everywhere and anywhere.
I intend to fight both Reform and the Conservatives for every vote. I want Restore Britain to win over millions of people who previously voted for those parties.
But that does not mean I have to insult everyone I disagree with, refuse to speak to political opponents or sabotage decent initiatives because somebody else might receive a little credit.
I was elected to represent my constituents, not to participate in an endless Westminster playground feud.
Do I like Kemi Badenoch and some other Conservative MPs personally? Yes.
Will I work with them when it benefits the British people? Yes.
Do I fundamentally oppose the Conservative Party's record and want Restore Britain to defeat them electorally? Yes. Their 14 years of power was an utter betrayal, and is largely responsible for the social, economic and demographic vandalism we have endured.
All three things can be true. Any serious adult should be capable of understanding that. It is not difficult to comprehend.
I will work with Conservatives. I will work with Labour. I will work with Reform, if they ever decide to behave constructively.
Reform's increasingly nasty, brash and personally unpleasant approach to politics says far more about them than it does about me. It’s just downright rude.
They seem to believe that refusing to work with anyone is a demonstration of strength. In my view, it’s a weakness that erodes our politics and fails our constituents.
I have said it again and again.
I will work with anyone in parliament to deliver for the British people.
And I make no apologies for doing so.
Grim news. Burnham has signed us up to 'time-bound' talks on a slavery apology. I have tabled a parliamentary motion calling for the opposite...
Here's what it demands.
- No apologies from the House of Commons for Britain's historical involvement in slavery.
- Not one penny in slavery reparations from British taxpayers.
- Official recognition and gratitude from these African/Caribbean nations for Britain's role in abolishing the slave trade and the sacrifices of Royal Navy sailors.
- Immediate termination of all British foreign aid, development assistance and taxpayer-funded grants to countries whose governments demand slavery reparations.
- A ban on UK visas for citizens of countries whose governments make such demands.
- An end to national self-flagellation over Britain's history, and pride in our country's contribution to abolishing the slave trade.
All MPs have been invited to support.
Not one has signed, so far.
Another day and another pair of invaders on trial charged with raping an autistic 14-year-old girl on a busy train.
A court has heard how Baryalai Rahimi, 25, and Mirebadurahman Sadat, 29, took turns abusing the girl on February 5.
They reportedly targeted the teenager after following her onto a London-bound Southeastern train at a rural station in Kent.
The pair appeared at London Crown Court accused of raping and sexually abusing the teenager, with one abusing her in the toilet. Jurors heard the men told the victim: "We share everything, girls, drinks, everything."
The government and legacy media are working in cahoots to target those trying to stop this shit!
Two days after Henry died Hampshire Police secretly recorded Digwa in a police van speaking Punjabi to his brother. Digwa admitted stabbing Henry. Discussed claiming self defence. Made zero mention of racial abuse. Not one word.
Hampshire Police had that tape.
They knew Digwa was lying about the racist attack. They had the evidence. They had his own words and then tried to smear Henry as the aggressor anyway.
Three days after his death their statement read “it was reported two men had been assaulted by an unknown man.” Henry was the unknown man. The boy bleeding out on the street. They flipped it.
Family complained. Statement changed. Then police told the family their NEXT update would again infer Henry was the initial aggressor. His family had to fight them a second time. While grieving their murdered son.
Then during the trial Hampshire tried to issue a statement telling the public to stop talking about it online. Calling it disinformation. The CPS had to step in. Told them they were about to collapse their own murder case.
This is the force that handcuffed a dying boy. Missed the murder weapon twice. Had a secret tape proving the killer lied. And still tried to bury Henry's name.
That's not incompetence. That's a machine protecting itself. At the expense of a dead boy's reputation and three officers are still on active duty. Not suspended. Treated as witnesses. To their own actions.
Hampshire Police didn't just fail Henry on that street. They kept failing him for six months after he died.
🚨 THEY ARE COMING FOR US

The Restore Britain Budget.
Britain has spent decades being governed by politicians who believe the answer to every problem is yet more government - that policy has destroyed our country.
More spending. More borrowing. More regulation. More taxes. More state.
Parasitic overreach into our lives - delivered by politicians and civil servants who have no understanding or appreciation of how real wealth and opportunity is generated in the private sector.
And what have the British people received in return?
A country where working families struggle. Where businesses face punishing costs. Where young people cannot afford homes. Where failing public services demand ever more money, whilst prioritising endless third world migrants. Where inflation runs rampant.
For British men and women, it is a government-backed scam. Corrupt incompetence.
It is impossible for Britain to tax itself into prosperity. I repeat, IMPOSSIBLE.
Wealth is created by people - the public sector should exist to support the private sector, not the reverse and that is the principle which underpins our philosophy.
Restore Britain backs the farmer producing food, the white van man driving the economy, the engineer designing machinery, the shopkeeper serving customers and the entrepreneur risking everything to start a business.
It comes down to this - Restore Britain will protect their freedom to succeed.
If you work hard and contribute, we are on your side.
Our Budget would begin the work of returning power, responsibility and money to the British people.
First, the spending cuts - to come before ANY reductions in tax.
Our 20 point plan to restore prosperity…
1. Freeze working-age benefit rates.
We will freeze working-age benefit rates for the duration of the first Parliament. Britain cannot indefinitely increase expenditure without considering the burden on the people funding it. That would be morally wrong. The healthy indolent will not be rewarded.
2. Restrict welfare eligibility.
No more benefits for foreigners, saving billions. No need to expand.
3. Reform sickness and disability benefits
We will overhaul eligibility, assessment procedures and return-to-work support.
People with serious disabilities and health conditions must receive appropriate protection.
But those who can work, will work. If they refuse, they will be put to work. That simple.
4. Reform pensions.
We will protect the State Pension while replacing the triple lock with annual CPI uprating. Public-sector pension arrangements will be overhauled to address differences with private-sector provision.
These measures will save tens of billions - all outlined in full in our economic paper, The Wealth Of Our Nation.
Next, take an axe to unnecessary government spending
5. The quango bonfire.
We will conduct a comprehensive review of arm's-length public bodies, the default will be abolish unless there is a serious reason to retain. Where its functions duplicate a government department, consolidate them. Deliver accountability and savings. AI will mean vast cuts are possible.
A LOT of Whitehall civil servants will lose their jobs. To be frank.
6. Freeze most departmental budgets.
We will introduce a three-year nominal spending freeze across most government departments - the main exception will be our programme of mass deportations, which in the short term will cost, however as we know, any immediate funds will be quickly recovered and then some.
7. End public spending on Net Zero.
We will end all public expenditure directed towards achieving Net Zero. Energy security will be our main priority. We will support investment in dependable domestic energy supplies, including the infrastructure needed to maintain a resilient electricity system. Energy security will be placed above any ideological dogma. If it makes Britain more resilient, we will pursue it.
8. Review government consultancy and discretionary expenditure.
We will audit consultancy contracts, procurement services, and ALL external advisory work - spending that cannot demonstrate a clear public benefit should end.
The procurement scam will end.
All bullshit ESG and social value nonsense will be stripped away - if the public sector wants to use a third party firm, make it the best one - subject to right-to-work checks to ensure no illegals are being employed.
As stated - spending cuts first, then tax cuts. Done carefully and responsibly. Here’s an overview of how a Restore Britain Government will lift the tax burden…
9. Raise the income tax personal allowance to £16,000.
Nobody should be paying income tax on their first £16,000 of earnings.
We will raise the personal allowance and extend the basic-rate income tax band to £100,000.
We will also restore the full personal allowance to higher earners, ending the withdrawal that creates exceptionally high effective marginal tax rates.
Success will be rewarded, hard work will be rewarded, ambition will be rewarded.
10. Cut corporation tax.
We will introduce a zero corporation tax rate on the first £50,000 of company profits.
Above that threshold, we will restore the headline rate to 19%, with a longer-term ambition of 15%. As soon as fiscal conditions allow.
Let’s give small businesses the genuine breathing room to get their operation off the ground, and then use the corporation tax cut to compete with our neighbours.
11. Abolish inheritance tax and stamp duty.
Families should not be punished for saving, investing and passing assets to their children.
We will abolish inheritance tax.
For farmers, for family businesses, for everyone.
The state has no claim to a family's lifetime of accumulated wealth simply because somebody has died. I detest it. It will be binned for all.
Stamp duty makes moving home more expensive, discourages mobility and creates unnecessary friction in the housing market.
We will abolish it.
12. Reduce disruptive tax.
We will cut the standard rate of VAT from 20% to 18%.
We will also raise the VAT registration threshold to £150,000, helping smaller businesses grow without immediately facing additional tax burden. The amount of businesses hovering just under the current threshold is painful. The issue is OBVIOUS, yet nobody in government has thought to act.
And we will ditch unnecessary taxes.
We will abolish:
Insurance Premium Tax.
Air Passenger Duty.
The Climate Change Levy.
The UK Emissions Trading Scheme.
We will also substantially increase the annual Capital Gains Tax exemption.
Restore Britain’s objective is a tax system that is simpler, more predictable and less hostile to investment.
Next, we will restore a state that works for our people.
13. Hold the NHS accountable.
The NHS will remain free at the point of use for British citizens.
We propose charging non-citizens at market rates - ensuring they actually pay the bills.
We will make private healthcare expenditure tax deductible. If people want to go private, let’s make it cheaper.
Alongside far-reaching structural reform, we will demand basic improvements in patient communication. Answer the telephone. Confirm referrals. Explain test results. Keep patients informed. Use AI to clear pressure on GPs.
All patient-facing staff must demonstrate the English-language communication skills necessary to perform their roles safely. If staff can’t speak English to the required standard, they will no longer have a job.
14. Restore Britain’s education system.
We will move towards greater school-level autonomy, with funding more closely linked to pupil numbers.
We will remove VAT from private education and make private education tax deductible.
We will also promote practical education, apprenticeships and stronger links between schools and employers. The aim will be to prepare children for working adulthood - full paper to come.
Apprenticeships are vital - my businesses have developed hundreds and hundreds. It works, especially with the rise of AI.
Student loan interest abolished for British nationals resident in the UK, full paper published.
An overhaul of childcare regulation and funding - led by those in the sector who know what’s necessary and what’s not.
Next.
The Restore Britain Budget will work to restore a self-sufficient Britain, backed by sovereign AI capabilities.
15. Support British farming and food security.
We will review the regulatory and tax burdens facing British farmers.
Food security must be recognised as a matter of national resilience and urgency. That will be central to everything.
We will make it FAR easier for domestic producers to compete for public-sector food contracts and examine ways to reduce unnecessary administration. Let’s use the public sector spend to back our own people, not import from foreign farmers.
Britain should not become increasingly dependent on imported food while making it harder for its own farmers to survive. And we desperately need to bring more young people into the industry…
16. Ease pressure on transport network.
We will rebuild Britain's transport network, tackling potholes, congestion and crumbling infrastructure while improving vital freight routes and rural roads - motorists will no longer be treated as cash cows. Fuel duty cut, and plenty more. (Full paper about to be published.)
Get this right, and the whole economy is lubricated.
17. Back small businesses.
We will review regulations introduced over recent decades, with a presumption in favour of removing law. Compliance simplified, licensing stripped back. Administrative burdens burned away. Scrap IR35, obviously.
Business rates abolished for small high street businesses. Review car park charges. Boost police numbers in town centres.
Restore confidence on the high street. Bring footfall back. Watch businesses thrive.
18. Develop sovereign AI capability.
AI is coming whether we like it or not. We need to ensure that we have our own protected AI capability which can promote and defend our own interests. We’re already falling behind, and it’s getting worse. We have the opportunity to be a genuine world-leader. Let’s pursue it.
19. A foreign policy that puts Britain’s interests first.
No endless foreign wars driving up the cost of living for ordinary families, no foreign aid unless explicitly to advance our interests. We will prioritise national security, trade, energy independence and protecting British citizens abroad.
Spending will be increased, but our armed forces exist to defend Britain and our vital national interests, not to act as the world's policeman.
20. Protect sound money and fiscal stability. This is the most important of all.
We will pursue a balanced Budget over the medium term and a declining debt-to-GDP ratio. Our aim is to cut the debt, not just the deficit.
The era of mass money printing will end. Inflation will be controlled. The cost-of-living reduced.
The aim - a Britain that belongs to its people
Every Budget promises change, while the state grows larger and the taxpayer becomes poorer.
Restore Britain offers a completely different direction.
A smaller government that spends less - all helped by a massive reduction in the number of migrants living in Britain.
Doing a small list of things, but doing them well.
A welfare state that protects genuine need and expects personal responsibility.
A tax system that rewards work, saving and enterprise.
Public services that answer to the people who fund them.
An economy built on productive businesses rather than a parasitic state.
We do not believe the British people need politicians to manage every aspect of their lives.
We believe they need the freedom to build better lives for themselves.
In short - we will stop buying votes with other people’s money.
Our ambition is not to make government richer.
It is to restore the prosperity of the British economy, the British nation and the British people.
