A few weeks ago, Restore was celebrating 10 council wins like the dawn of a glorious future. “We are inevitable” spokesman Charlie Downes said as the party surpassed 120,000 members.

But a series of strategic blunders and rifts have dented this optimism.

Looks like Nigel Farage's complaint against HOPE not hate using charitable funds for our political campaigning has come to nothing....

Voters in Makerfield have thoroughly rejected Reform UK’s Rob Kenyon. Reform tried to turn this by-election into a breakthrough moment. Voters denied them that.

HOPE not hate’s research exposed Rob Kenyon’s sexist posts, @carolvorders helped take that message directly to voters.

[Joe Mulhall @JoeMulhall_]

Very proud of the @hopenothate research team this morning for doing so much amazing work exposing the misogyny and extremism of Reform's candidate in Makerfield.

[Joe Mulhall @JoeMulhall_]

Important for media to accurately describe both Reform and Restore as far right. Reform are civic nationalists from the pop radical right while Restore are more extreme and racial nationalist but framing it as though Restore are far right but Reform aren’t normalises the latter.

New from me and @lowles_nick for @hopenothate. Putin’s Useful Idiot: How the Russian State Supports and Amplifies Tommy Robinson https://t.co/qFsXjl5ito

[HOPE not hate @hopenothate]

NEW: Is Tommy Robinson a paid Russian asset, or just Putin's useful idiot?

For years, the Russian state and its proxies have promoted him, amplified him, and fed him lines. He has repaid them by parroting the Kremlin and spreading its disinformation.

Remarkable work by @GregoryDavisHNH of @hopenothate revealing the dark Russian network attempting to incite violence and chaos in the UK https://t.co/XvFUxL23l6

🚨HOPE NOT HATE EXCLUSIVE 🚨 The Starmer arson plot: Russian interference on a grand scale in the UK https://t.co/4CUekSUabM

[HOPE not hate @hopenothate]

This is not a conspiracy theory. It's real. And it demands urgent action.

That’s why we are calling for a comprehensive and transparent inquiry that looks at the full range of Russian interference in Britain.

EXCLUSIVE: The two Ukrainian men found guilty of firebombing Keir Starmer’s house were recruited on and paid by a Telegram channel working out of Russia.

Our research, revealed by BBC Panorama this week, shows this was not an isolated plot.

.@JoeMulhall_: “We saw this in Southport, Southampton with the Henry Nowak case as well as in Epping, with the anti asylum seeker protests there. The even bigger danger is when you have a number of such events in quick succession.” https://t.co/CjnIlk7WcI

[Joe Mulhall @JoeMulhall_]

I was down in Newtownabbey last night monitoring the rioting. Absolutely disgusting and scary scenes. The fact that Tommy Robinson is whipping the situation up while sat in Moscow is reprehensible.

[Joe Mulhall @JoeMulhall_]

Can't be absolutely certain but it very much looks like Tommy Robinson is in the Shalyapin Bar of the Hotel Metropol in Moscow with Errol Musk.

NEW REPORT: How does online radicalisation manifest differently for girls and boys?

Two routes to the same place. For young men: fitness, gaming, politics.

For young women: wellness, homesteading, “tradwife” aesthetics.

The far right often claim to protect women and girls, but tolerate violent abusers among their own.

25-year old Craig Kitts, one of the lead anti-migrant activists in Epping, is just the most recent example.
