GET A GRIP

To run the campaign in #Makerfield, elderly racist Rupert Lowe has recruited the disgraced former Tory MP Scott Benton, who lost the whip in 2023 after suggesting to undercover reporters at the Times that he would be willing to break lobbying rules for money. A Reform UK source said: “Lowe is constantly attacking us for accepting former Tories, now he is working with a Tory who resigned his seat in disgrace.” The far-right Restore Britain party, which has attracted neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and Holocaust deniers (who Lowe refuses to condemn) calls for “remigration”, and the party’s manifesto pledges to deport foreign-born legal residents if they, for example, live in social housing or take benefits. Lowe has used offensive language about immigrants, recently saying at the campaign launch in Makerfield: “They should be deported to a midge-infested island offshore either England or Scotland and let the midges do the rest.” The Restore candidate for Makerfield appeared uncomfortable standing next to Lowe as he made those disgusting remarks, and grimaced. Lowe warns about preserving Britain's “Christian identity” (he ain’t no Christian) and “protecting” the historic (white) British population from demographic/cultural “replacement”, which some say sits uneasily with one of his son’s recent marriage to Yasmin Mezran — a non-white Italian immigrant with Libyan paternal heritage (North African/Muslim-majority background). Lowe has also described foreign immigrant Elon Musk, who for years has been actively engaged in interfering in and subverting British democracy, as a “patriot”, despite repeatedly criticising and opposing foreign interference in British democracy and sovereignty. Lowe has argued that decisions affecting Britain should be made only by those fully (unlike Musk) integrated into British culture and society. Lowe has also supported tighter restrictions on foreign donations and financial influence in UK politics (despite receiving at least £50,000 from @X, owned by Musk, for his bigoted tweets) including engagement with reviews aimed at protecting elections from overseas money and malign actors. In speeches and interviews, he has consistently highlighted threats to parliamentary sovereignty and national control, advocating for policies that prioritise British interests (Musk’s interests categorically do not align with Britain’s interests). Lowe claims his broader platform through Restore Britain centres on restoring British sovereignty, reducing external influences in domestic politics, and putting British citizens first. His public record shows a clear pattern of rhetoric and actions focused on safeguarding national democracy from foreign interference — except when it comes to brown-nosing the richest wanker alive. Lowe is a bigoted multimillionaire, educated at one of the most expensive private schools on earth, masquerading as a patriotic man of the people while sounding exactly like a posh, selfish, elderly racist.

I was the Labour councillor for Blakelaw and Cowgate and lost the recent election to Reform UK by just 22 votes. I accepted the result. That is democracy. What I did not expect was what came afterwards. Since the election, my family and I have experienced abuse, hostility, personal attacks and even vandalism. Most recently, a political social media post contained false claims about my involvement in the community and local organisations. The claim was later removed, but not before it had already been seen and shared. Blakelaw and Cowgate is not just a ward to me. It is my home. My family lives here. My children have grown up here. We have spent years supporting local residents, community groups and grassroots football because we care deeply about this community. What hurts most is the impact on my family. My children have asked why things have changed so much since the election. As a parent, it is heartbreaking to see them worried and upset because of things being said about their mother. When false information is published, it does not just affect the person targeted. It affects their husband, their children and the people who love them. It makes you wonder how much more hostility your family will have to face simply for trying to serve your community. I am proud of everything my family and I have done for Blakelaw and Cowgate. Despite everything, this is still our home, and I will continue supporting the community I care so deeply about.

@docrussjackson They are just engaged. The marriage may not happen 🤦🏻‍♀️

Rupert Lowe warns about preserving 'Britain's Christian identity' and 'protecting' the historic (white) British population from 'demographic/cultural replacement', which some say sits uneasily with his son's recent marriage to Yasmin Mezran — a non-white Italian immigrant with Libyan paternal heritage (North African/Muslim-majority background). Personally, I hope they're very happy together, and any future white Christmas with the in-laws isn't awkward.

This Elon Musk?

You reduce crime by eliminating poverty. The reason so called nice neighborhoods have lower crime rates is because people’s basic needs are being met. It is not because of police, alarm systems, or neighborhood associations. Poverty creates crime.

He uses AI slops because he knows some of his supporters will believe that the image is real.

Rupert Lowe posted a picture of his son marrying a Libyan woman, and his supporters are not happy. I've read them so you don't have to: "What the fuck dude. Encouraging your english child to marry a fucking foreigner? Rupert" "You're proud that he married a brown foreign invader? What a joke and obvious anti-British party Restore Britain is. You're not going to restore it if the natives keep marrying the foreigners & having mixed-race kids. " "she is an Arab jew. This party is done" "Their kids won't be English. This is not restoring Britain. " "Party masquerading as wanting to bring back Christian roots. Party leaders' children don’t even get married in a Christian ceremony." There are loads of racist replies like this from his own supporters about his daughter-in-law. I know he says that he doesn't care, but his fans will never accept his grandchildren.

Pep was late coming out to the pitch ended up jogging on. The reception for his last game, man. The noise. The gift from Unai Emery and @AVFCOfficial . Wow. Just legendary.

If Reform Party Ltd candidate Rob Kenyon has really been a plumber for twenty years, as he claims, why are all his tools brand new and unused?

@RobertJenrick Reform only have one policy - to dehumanise one group of people after another. It’s always going to be somebody’s turn with you people. Making stupid people angry is your MO, you’ve literally nothing else. Nothing 🙄

Pope Leo XIV: Artificial intelligence needs to be disarmed. The word is strong, I know, but deliberately chosen. AI now demands to be disarmed, freed from logics that turn it into an instrument of domination, exclusion, and death. Like nuclear energy, it must be at the service of all and of the common good.

Humanity, created by God in all its grandeur, is today facing a pivotal choice: either to construct a new Tower of Babel or to build the city in which God and humanity dwell together. In Jesus Christ, this humanity in its grandeur becomes the Way, the Truth and the Life, opening the path for each of us to grow toward fullness. #MagnificaHumanitas vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

In leaked audio recordings, Peter Thiel revealed he told JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral issues, including the development of ethical AI. Calling Leo XIV the “woke American pope,” he also suggested the American pope was a tool of the Antichrist. Now, Pope Leo XIV is releasing what’s expected to be an historic encyclical addressing AI tomorrow morning. thelettersfromleo.com/p/new-jd-vance…

Always playing the fucking victim. Pathetic spineless opportunistic wanker.

Advance backwards! Restore racism! Reform Reform! 🍿😂
