A GUIDE FOR CANVASSING FOR RESTORE So I had no prior experience before yesterday but I did have quite a lot of success in convincing the good people of Makerfield to vote Restore. So here is a little guide based on my experience of what to expect and how to effectively convince people according to what they tell you at the door! Labour voter- These guys can be pretty aggressive! MOST tell you to go away and slam the door. That’s fine. It’s quite annoying being canvassed this heavily. But the few that do stick around mostly tell you they’ve always voted Labour and always will. Ask them “What do you think of the current state of the country?” Ask them if they’ve heard of Rupert Lowe and just ask them to look at his Facebook posts. Wish them a lovely day and leave. This is the best interaction you could hope for! Reform aka EASY PICKINGS- So, there are two type of Reform voter. First the most common. “I’m not splitting the vote” you tell them “look I’m just happy you’re not voting Labour” shake his/her hand “what do you think of Restore and Rupert Lowe? Have you seen his Facebook posts?” The conversation then will INVARIABLY be about how they do prefer Restore and Lowe to Reform and Farage. Tell them “Polling shows Labour wins this seat what do you think of that?” Usually met with denial or them complaining about how Labour voters are mental. Wrap this up now! Hand the Restore/Reform leaflet over. Make sure they have Rupert Lowe on Facebook and wish them a nice day! Handshake and leave. You’ve planted the idea that his vote is wasted one way or another (it is) and gave him the information he needs to radicalise himself. Give him 24hrs and he’ll be voting Restore. The second kind! The protest Reform voter! They JUST HATE LABOUR. “Anyone but Labour” “Ok then reform or Restore for you then, welcome to the team” big smile and handshake. Ask what they think the current state of the country is. They might swear. They WILL swear. Give them the Restore/Reform quiz tell them we’re in national emergency and ONLY Restore are willing to go as far as is necessary. Tell them that Reform call us racist because we want mass deportations. This is effective because this person has most definitely been called racist in the past for their opinions also. By this point you’ll have a Restore voter on your hands. Tell them you want to see a sign at the bottom of their garden to show their neighbours that they don’t give a shit what anybody thinks about them and that they stand up for what’s right. I had 5/6 of these conversations and they were all nearly identical. Non voters- These people have totally lost hope. Don’t trust the system! And are suppressing their anger! MAKE THEM ANGRY!! What do they think of the state of the country? SHIT! Tell them we need to send a message! Tell them Labour FUCKING HATES THEM. Tell them you NEED them! You have kids you’re scared for! Elderly parents you worry about! It’s a no brainer here! Tell them they could vote Reform and give Jenrick another crack at it, because I bet he won’t fuck it up this time! Or they could vote Restore who promise to end the torture of the British people and imprison the politicians and bureaucrats who let it happen! They’ll be getting a sign in their window/garden! Lib Dem’s/Greens/Cons There are none DONT START WITH “SORRY TO BOTHER YOU”!! When they answer say “HI ARE YOU VOTING?” They’ll give you all the information you need to know with one word. Keep in mind It’s the middle of the day. About 90% of the homes you knock are no answers. But DO KNOCK all of them. No car on the drive? Means nothing! I’ll talk to a ring camera any day of the week! Remember these are normal people, who just want to go to work to provide for their families and pay their bills. You don’t know what any of them are going through! If people get angry with you, wish them a nice day and walk away.

.@Nigel_Farage claimed he'd been advised by the Speaker's office not to hold in-person constituency surgeries due to security, but the Speaker's Office and parliamentary security said they had "no recollection" of giving that advice. Funny how often the truth and Farage fit together.

@blaiklockBP @Nigel_Farage He’s NEVER at his job. If voters think he’s going to be their PM they’re delusional! Zia is going to be the man when the time comes. He’s paid his deposit after all!

@blaiklockBP Hello I’m here Canvassiving for the Conser…. Sorry Reform. Can I count on you to not split the vote on Thursday?

And what would you do if failed Tory Tice knocked at your door ?

@LeilaniDowding Ok vote Lib Dem then?? If we all just vote Lib Dem Burnham won’t become PM. Explain the difference to me

I’m a huge supporter of Rupert Lowe. But if Labour get in because Restore split the vote, it will be unforgivable. if Burnham doesn’t win, he can’t run for PM. So why in the world would anyone split the vote ??

@AlfredTheMid @wellard67 I think we’ve gone when fatigue is HIGH! Also to say the areas we went were neglected is a serious understatement!

@wellard67 @UK_Based_Mike I tended to ask “How do you think Labour are doing so far?” Reason being they’re already in government. No one said they’re doing well, in fact they pointed out that it’s terrible. I often left them a leaflet at this point but I think mostly it was tribal loyalty

>I joined Reform because of diversity Oh brother

@RusGarbageHuman We’re not the same

@wellard67 It was probably your good looks! 😉

@UK_Based_Mike Always worked for me when canvassing.

@UK_Based_Mike staysafeonline.org/articles/data-…

@NoLongerTheFuzz I voted Lib Dem for a laugh because I assumed I’d be the only one. Terrified they’re on 4% here 😱😱😱

If there was no #reform or #restore at the next GE, who would you vote for and why? 🤔

@DHart1549 @UKLabour Pretty much plus the postal votes are pretty much already secured for them.

@UK_Based_Mike @UKLabour Are they just ASSUMING that everyone's going to somehow vote for Burnham? 🙄

So I decided to get off my arse yesterday and canvass for RESTORE BRITAIN. Here’s an honest assessment of what I saw! Reform canvassing teams were HORRIBLE!! More than a couple incidents of miserable old ladies arguing with people on their own doorsteps! Faces like smacked arses! 😖😖 One house in particular. I thought I’d be cheeky and knock on a door straight after two Reform ladies failed to win the internet of the lovely lady and gent inside. When I approached the door, one of the ladies asked “do you really think you should be doing that?” I chuckled and said “I think I have to”. Next thing we know I’ve gotten an honest hard working family who’d never voted before to vote Restore and they wanted me to bring them a sign for their garden! SCORE! 👑👑 Should be the end of the story right?? NOPE! These bitter buggers RE-Knocked the door and began berating the gentleman inside… WTF!! They got a telling off, and then abandoned the entire estate. 😱😱 Me and my team had a BALL!! So much fun! I was in my element! I’ve got little old ladies telling me Keir Starmer is a CUNT. I’m handing out hugs like they’re hot cakes! I’m stopping cars in the street and shaking hands! We did TWO routes in the end! And as for the guys I was teamed up with!! Wow! What a bunch! Smart! Friendly! Supportive! Successful! Stoic! I don’t think we stopped laughing the whole day! And as for the result!! I think EVERYONE is going to be SHOCKED!!

@GeoffWrigh3712 Too late for them in Makerfield now also I’m told

@UK_Based_Mike A lot of people aren't on the electoral register.

@DHart1549 @UKLabour I saw two chaps out together. VERY old moving very slowly and knocking on doors together. So effectively no. It’ll be a postal victory I think

@UK_Based_Mike Is @UKLabour even canvassing Makerfield?

@SandDancer9 Right between you losing your virginity and the day you beat Mishima on Tekken.

@UK_Based_Mike Filed under ‘never happened’.

@RaheemKassam You should have come along! Tell everyone in person about Reforms “mass” hahaha “deportation” hahaHAHAHA “plan” HAHAHAHA!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@sadierodgers8 What a mental thing to say 🤣

@UK_Based_Mike what is it that make restore or reform think people want doorstepped, the annoyance of that would take my vote away.

@wellard67 Honestly bud most don’t care! They have no answers for you!

@UK_Based_Mike When you meet Labour voters ask them exactly which Labour policy they vote for? They will never be able to answer you, then ask them if they could make up policies what would they be, most will mirror Restore policies, then hand them the Restore leaflet.

Me and a another bloke from my group were interviewed by a German journalist from Süddeutsche Zeitung we chose not to have our picture taken though lest the write up be very different from what we’d said 🤣 I noticed he was only making notes and not recording us so I didn’t want to take the risk.

I just watched an interview by Luca from The Lotus Eaters. He asked, 'what would you consider success?', but framed it in terms of percentages. To my mind, the Restore Britain Makerfield campaign has already been a resounding success, irrespective of the vote! Awesome job ladies and gentlemen!! 🙏 Thank you, thank you, thank you to all the patriots who turned out! ❤️

@RestoreOrkney To say the first area was “down market” might be a bit of an understatement 🤣 but good honest people nonetheless! People making the most of what they have! The second skirmish was the main road in Hindley. Really fun area to be in! Lots of people willing to listen.

@UK_Based_Mike We sincerely hope more campaigners take the time to tell us their stories, too. It means a lot to us and is a written history of our early days that would otherwise be lost. Which sort of area were you in, by the way? Was it a bit more up or down market? Did the Reform look paid

@TsariGlass @Rob582115219831 @RestoreBritain I LOVE “teal Tories”! I’m stealing it 🤣

@Rob582115219831 @UK_Based_Mike @RestoreBritain Exactly how I would expect someone with your IQ would look. Deform is full of tories, Rupert left the tories. Vote @RestoreBritain Fuck The Teal Tories!
