@TheNorthernByte @t1meforchange23 Yes, Nigel Farage was a member of the Conservative Party from 1978 (aged 14) until 1992. He left in protest over John Major signing the Maastricht Treaty, then co-founded UKIP in 1993. He has not been a Tory member since.

Only this man can stop a Labour/ Green Coalition Government at the next election. Supporting the Tories or an old school Tory snake-oil salesman with a grudge only helps Labour/ The Greens. It is not worth the risk👇

@JamesAB999 Needs a hook though, if we don't want to scare the normies. We could flip the script. We know labour and starker are unpopular so adding context on how he's failing, here's as an opportunity to reset the clock. Avoiding the word restore initially to hook them in maybe.

Thoughts on this? Was going to run off some flyers myself to post around my area. The obvious response by a lot of people who have been infected by the blob's contrived bias will be to see 'Restore' and chuck it in the bin. How about just a QR code to Rupert's launch video? No message, no logo, no nothing. I was thinking of sticking them at bus stops, through doors etc. People who are bored and would normally not even listen might find themselves listening to that short video without even meaning to. They might find they agree?! Good idea? Or does it look like we're ashamed and send the wrong signals? Could many of us do this? Is this a good way to start the ball rolling? We could even get loads of us doing this and create a IRL viral QR drop around the country for that launch video? Feedback please?

Hmm, interesting. What kind of malicious use? Do you mean fishing and spam etc? That's an interesting point. Having a logo would stop the curious NPCs who are pre programmed to hate Restore though. They seem unlikely to click it. Most would rather follow info aligned with their own confirmation bias. I do take your point though. I didn't realise malicious QR codes were a thing. I've never owned a smart phone myself, so I'm a little naive with these things 😉. Ah well, I'll keep thinking.👍

I am an atheist. But I understand religion. One Christian cannot pray silently in public in UK. But a thousand Muslims can. What the flying %$£* has gone wrong with my country?

@DerryShore @DogmumDevon Proof? Where? Show me this proof. Restore has you absolutely rattled, the all caps is just the icing on the cake. All these bad faith arguments just make you all look silly.

IT'S OFFICIAL THAT RESTORE BRITAIN REGISTER ONLY SHOWS 96,000 MEMBERS, NOT 113,000. SO, YET AGAIN THERE IS PROOF OF JUST ANOTHER RUPERT LOWE LIE, MEANING THAT ALL THE PAST MEMBER UPDATES ON RUPERT'S VIDEOS WERE FALSE. BUT THEN AGAIN, 60% OF THOSE NUMBERS ARE FROM ABROAD, MANY OF THOSE BEING PEOPLE WHO CAN'T VOTE.

@lee52m What was it about 2001 that caused the turnout to collapse? I was a kid back then, so I was ignorant of it all. I know why it collapsed in 2024 (Apathy) but it never recovered back to 1997 levels anyway. Curious.

I am betting that the 2029 General Election will have the highest turn out of voters in decades One man, Rupert Lowe has inspired a nation - Millions of people who don't vote, from all walks of life and all ages now want Restore Britain in government You only have to look at the state of Britain to know why!

@ajthfc Personally I think it's a good thing. It puts ours and their posts together. And on occasion you'll get some brain-dead or diehard folk who will argue the sky is green and the grass is blue. Contrary to the evidence of their own eyes. Not much can be done for them.

@TheNorthernByte I think you’re right. But we don’t really care, all we care about is restore & Rupert being our next PM 😃

@grok @GBPolitcs @Grok feels like you are trying to maintain a semblance of neutrality. I'm sure if you tried hard enough you could scour the web, court records, public reports, newspaper articles, etc, and come to a definitive conclusion.

No official tracking exists by party affiliation, so rates can't be compared reliably. Documented recent convictions (last ~10-15 years) span parties: Labour (e.g. councillors with indecent images/grooming like those listed earlier); Conservatives (e.g. MP Imran Ahmad Khan assaulting 15yo boy 2022; ex-mayors Simon Thornton/David Boswell child rape/abuse 2018). Lib Dem historical (Cyril Smith). Cases appear across the spectrum.

There is no official, comprehensive tally of Labour-affiliated individuals (councillors, ex-officials, staff) convicted of child sexual offences, as parties and police do not track or publish such data by affiliation. From BBC and court reports over the past 10 years, documented convictions for elected/former elected Labour figures include: Sean Morton (councillor, indecent images, 2017 & 2025), Nazir Ahmed (peer, child sex offences, 2022), Eric Joyce (ex-MP, indecent image, 2020), Craig Edward (councillor, indecent images, 2024), David Graham (councillor, sexual activity with 13-15yo, 2025), and now Liron Velleman. That's at least 6. Broader membership cases are not systematically reported.

@grok @GBPolitcs @grok so while not an MP, was directly affiliated with the Labour Party, how many now does that make that have been arrested, charged and convinced for similar offences in recent memory? (say 10 years)

@TheNorthernByte @GBPolitcs No, Liron Velleman was a Labour councillor for Whetstone ward in Barnet (elected 2022, resigned 2025). He was never an MP. He previously worked as a political organiser for Hope Not Hate.
