It begins.

Andy Burnham: “I don’t blame anyone who left our party. I don’t blame anyone who voted for other parties”. “We need to renationalise water, energy and housing.”

England is getting what she deserves. Let me say that again: England is getting what she deserves. It’s not the globalists. It’s not the elites. It’s not the foreigners. It is us. Our malaise is the fault of no one but ourselves. Mass immigration, demographic chaos, organised child rape gangs, cultural vandalism, an economy on the brink of collapse, an education system that teaches self-hatred, a media with no regard for the truth, a political class whose treachery knows no limits — none of these are the ultimate cause of the present condition of England. They are symptoms, downstream consequences, of something far more fundamental. And each one is our fault. We, the English, have forgotten who we are. We — all of us — have indulged in the poisonous fruits of modernity. We have looked the other way while our sons and daughters stripped themselves of dignity. We have allowed our culture to debase itself. We have invited evil into our Kingdom — and in every case, we have done so willingly. We have delighted in sin and turned our backs on God. We are not the beset-upon victims of an unfair world. We have been docile and complacent, made weak by the decadence of modernity. We have given ourselves to worldly things and rejected the eternal moral principles that once made us the greatest civilisation in history. In their place we have embraced a religion of the self. Our culture’s moral centre of gravity is “the individual” — whether that takes the form of woke identity politics, hedonistic self-indulgence, or the endless pursuit of wealth. Popularity, not truth, is our social and political currency. Pride is celebrated as a virtue and humility is in short supply. And what is it that those of us engaged in the political struggle are fighting for? England is not worth defending merely because “something something the shires” or “something something our grandchildren”. England is unique among nations as a defender of truth, reason, and faith — we are the protagonists of history, leaders of all mankind, and we have chosen to abandon our post. A mere political revolution will not save this country from the collapse that now looks all but certain. What is required is a revolution of the soul. The English must remember who they are and what their purpose is: the pursuit of truth, the defence of reason, the banishment of evil, and the glory of God. Failing that, England burns. And rightly so.

it’s all going to plan…

Restore Britain will be standing a candidate in the Makerfield by-election. There is overwhelming demand from our local members to do so, and I entirely agree. Our campaign has already started, and we aim to win thousands and thousands of votes. More news very soon.

🚨 NEW: Rupert Lowe has confirmed Restore Britain will stand a candidate in the Makerfield by-election

One of the laziest arguments against Restore Britain is that we’re ‘splitting the vote’. I entirely disagree. Voters are not the property of Farage or Reform. Votes are earned. Not owned. If people are leaving Reform and backing Restore Britain instead, that is not because we stole them. It is because Reform failed to keep them. That is politics. And frankly, the argument itself reveals a deeply arrogant mindset... The belief that millions of patriotic British people should simply fall into line blindly behind one party regardless of performance, principles or behaviour. It treats men and women like children. It’s patronising, and the British people deserve better. We’re all big enough and ugly enough to make our own minds up. And actually, in such a volatile electoral system - anything can happen. As we saw in Norfolk. When people voted for real change, they got it. In Great Yarmouth, when it was apparent that we were going to win, I don’t remember Reform standing down any candidates. In fact, they threw more and more at the campaign in order to beat us - drafting in councillors from across the country. The Tories accused Reform of splitting the vote at the last general, and they were rightly ignored. Look at how that has turned out. We now intend to do exactly the same, and more. Restore Britain exists because huge numbers of people now believe Britain requires something more serious, more disciplined, more radical and more honest than what currently exists. If Reform want those voters back, they are welcome to persuade them. In the meantime, we are going to continue making our positive case. If Brits don’t agree, they won’t vote for us. That’s fine. I don’t mind. But millions do, and millions will. Great Yarmouth proved the model - we battered Reform. If enough people vote for real change, they get it.

Well, it looks like I’m booking hotels for Makerfield for canvassing.

Makerfield. Restore Britain is holding a local branch meeting in the area tonight, and a decision on our next steps will be taken over the weekend. The mood with the membership locally is that we are very much up for a fight.
