Nigel Farage wants to evict foreign nationals and their families from council properties, then deport them if they don’t find alternative accommodation. We’re disgusted. Fortunately, it doesn’t affect me because I was granted British citizenship, but it will impact thousands with ILR status. I advised those eligible to get British citizenship ASAP in case Reform wins the general election in 2029.

🚨NEW: Reform UK states that from the date foreign nationals living in social housing are evicted, they have three months to find private accommodation or they will be deported [@Telegraph]

Reform is definitely not Tory 2.0. It just happens to include: Lee Anderson Suella Braverman Robert Jenrick Nadhim Zahawi Danny Kruger Andrew Rosindell Nadine Dorries Ben Bradley Chris Green Lia Nici Jonathan Gullis Sarah Atherton Maria Caulfield Adam Holloway Jake Berry David Jones Anne Marie Morris Ross Thomson Alan Amos Marco Longhi Aidan Burley Andrea Jenkyns Lucy Allan All former Conservatives. At some point “Tory 2.0” stops being an insult and becomes the attendance register.

What happened to Reform’s famous live membership counter? Remember the counter? Nigel Farage loved it. Reform supporters loved it. It was splashed across the website as proof of unstoppable momentum. It became a political weapon. Farage used it to boast that Reform had overtaken the Conservatives. Kemi Badenoch called the numbers fake. Farage hit back. The row became part of Reform’s “we are replacing the Tories” story. The message was simple: Look at the number. Watch it rise. Join the movement. This is history happening live. But where is it now? Reform’s website still claims 270k+ members, but the precise live counter appears to have vanished. The exact, always-moving number has been replaced by a safer rounded claim. That matters. Because archived snapshots tell a more awkward story. By late December and January, the counter was not roaring upwards. It was hovering around the same level. It moved up. It moved down. It stalled. Some archive captures show: 270,926 on 16 December 271,188 on 20 December 271,113 on 23 December 270,917 on 29 December 270,924 on 5 January 270,748 on 8 January 270,729 on 10 January 270,729 on 13 January 271,610 on 19 January That is not the clean story Reform spent months selling. That is a membership figure bumping around the same band. And once a live counter stops behaving like a victory parade, it stops being useful propaganda and starts becoming evidence. This is the problem with turning a membership number into a public performance. When it rises, you look unstoppable. When it stalls, everyone can see it. When it drops, even slightly, the story changes. Suddenly the question is not “How fast is Reform growing?” It becomes: Who is leaving? Who is not renewing? Who joined during the hype and drifted away? How many are active? How many are legacy annual subscribers? How many joined for insurgency and found Tory 2.0 waiting at the door? That last question matters. Reform’s brand was built on being the revolt against the old Conservative machine. But the more former Tory MPs, ministers and establishment figures it absorbs, the harder that story becomes to sustain. Some joined Reform because they were sick of the Conservatives. They wanted something new. Not a turquoise refuge centre for the same political class that gave Britain record migration, high taxes, broken housing, weak borders and public services in permanent crisis. So when Reform recruits more of the people associated with that failure, it should not be shocking if some grassroots members ask whether they have been sold a rebrand rather than a revolution. Then came Restore. Restore now claims more than 130,000 members. Not all of those will be ex-Reform, of course. Nobody serious should pretend they are. But it is equally silly to pretend there has been no political movement at all. Restore is clearly attracting people who think Reform has become too cautious, too compromised, too personality-led and too comfortable with the old Tory world. That is what makes the missing live counter interesting. If Reform is still genuinely surging, why not keep the exact live number front and centre? Why move from a precise public counter to the much safer “270k+”? Why retire the theatre when the theatre was so useful? Perhaps the answer is innocent. Perhaps it was just a website redesign. Perhaps the number is still perfectly healthy. Fine. Then publish the exact current paid-up figure. Publish the monthly joins and lapses. Publish how many cancelled. Publish how many failed to renew. Publish how many are active members rather than legacy annual subscribers waiting for renewal. And explain why the live counter, once treated as proof of unstoppable momentum, quietly gave way to the safer and vaguer “270k+”. Reform were happy for the country to stare at the counter when it made them look unstoppable. They cannot object if people keep looking now. Useful when it rose. Awkward when it stopped.

Vote splitting under first-past-the-post is real. The question is why Reform assumes every anti-Labour vote belongs to Reform by default. That is the part never explained. If voters broadly wanted the same thing, Reform would not be spending half its time attacking Restore supporters for refusing to obey. Some of us do not see recycled Tory machinery, vague delivery plans and Farage personality politics as the same direction of change. A vote for Restore is not a vote for Labour. It is a refusal to be herded into Tory 2.0 because Reform thinks it has inherited national discontent.
BruceUnfiltered@BruceUnfiltered

I’ll just say what I see. Restore Britain can dress this up however they want, but in Makerfield this does one thing: it helps Labour. That is not an opinion. That is how first-past-the-post works. If you split the vote between people who broadly want the same direction of change, the side you’re trying to remove can walk through the middle and win with less support than they should ever need. People can support who they want. Rupert Lowe can set up whatever party he wants. But don’t insult people’s intelligence by pretending vote splitting suddenly isn’t real because it’s inconvenient for your narrative. Which is anti Reform before anything else, proven by mass social media posting. Underneath all the branding, all the flags, all the speeches and all the “we’re not splitting the vote” nonsense, the result is the same. And in Makerfield, that means Andy Burnham and Labour get exactly what they need. A vote for Restore that does not support Robert Kenyon is a vote for Andy Burnham. You can deny it all you want. We know. We see. We understand how it works. You don't have to like me, I really couldn't care less, but stop denying reality. Anyone with a brain would do what it takes to stop Burnham getting in that seat. We will see who puts party before country though, won't we. #listentobritain #Makerfield #RestoreBritain #Labour #AndyBurnham #VoteSplitting #UKPolitics

@TheHolmesFront @MutlyPaul @reformparty_uk @RestoreBritain Out of the 21 by-elections taking place on june 18th how many are restore standing in? Just the one and in that a distant third is the best restore can hope for, in the meantime Reform, a truly national party who can make a difference, are fighting in all 21.

@MsSanchez69 @Perseverer4 I have honestly not seen that. I have been called plenty of vile things but supporters of other parties. I know our local party meetings are full of people who just want a better Britain. I have met some of the most interesting people too. It's been a delight. Just positivity!

I was like many, a Reform supporter until Rupert started up Restore Britain so have no real malice to anyone in Reform. I just have found an alternative party and a leader that I prefer essentially. To see the vitriol coming from some of them in the past few days is really disappointing. Being part of Restore Britain's action day was life-affirming for me. The friendliness of everyone in attendance today from the very top to us canvassers (many 1st timers) was such a great experience. I'd recommend anyone to get there if they can you will be welcomed with open arms and helped along the way. A true peoples movement, I hope the lovely people(and they were lovely folk) of Makerfield realise they can change the course of this entire country if they vote Restore Britain. But it's up to them now, that's how this works🤞🇬🇧

"Brexit was sold as a solution to border control, yet evidence now suggests it's helping drive the small boats crisis. "With the France deal falling short, will the government admit Brexit is a major factor and pursue a comprehensive EU asylum agreement?" @MPMWilko
