I've been asked a lot why I'm backing Restore Britain and not Reform, so here's my honest answer. I want this country back. I want my kids to grow up in a Britain that puts its own people first, and after years of record migration, that means far more people leaving than arriving. Restore says that openly. Reform's target is net zero migration, which just keeps things as they are. Rupert Lowe set up his own inquiry into the rape gangs when nobody in Westminster would. Reform's answer was to suspend him and report him to the police after he questioned Farage's leadership. No charges were ever brought. That told me everything about how Reform treats people who speak up. There are plenty more reasons, and if you genuinely want to know, I'm happy to go into them in more detail. But as it stands, Restore will get my vote when the time comes. Reform are not up to what this country needs. I'll probably lose followers for saying this, and that's fine. I'd rather be honest about where I stand.

Hampshire Police are arresting local people in Gosport tonight for trying to stop small boat migrants being brought into their town. It is the second time in 2 weeks. Last time, 6 residents were arrested. Gosport never agreed to become a landing point for the Channel crossings. The people defending their town are being treated as the criminals, while the people who broke into the country are given a police escort.

A 28 year old lab technician at a Russian institute that studies plague has died, and around 200 people are now under medical observation in Siberia. Darya Shipilova, who worked at the Irkutsk Anti Plague Institute, died on Friday. One leading theory is that she broke a test tube containing the bacteria that causes pneumonic plague on 25 September. The hospital where she died has been quarantined, along with several hospitals in Irkutsk, and masks are now compulsory at the city's huge aluminium plant. A regional governor first said she died of plague, then edited his post to say she "may have". Russia has still not confirmed the cause of death.

Crowds at a Pride march in Paris have been filmed waving Palestinian flags alongside rainbow flags and dancing to Palestinian music. In Gaza, sex between men is a crime punishable by up to 10 years in prison. In 2016, Hamas executed one of its own commanders after he was accused of having sex with men. The people cheering for Palestine at Pride would not be allowed to march in Gaza at all. Insane.

Britain's second richest man has left the country for Monaco. Property billionaire David Reuben, 88, who shares a fortune of around £28 billion with his brother Simon, moved this summer. Monaco has no income tax, no capital gains tax and no inheritance tax. He is the latest in a long line of wealthy people to leave since Labour scrapped non dom status in April 2025. 60 names on last year's Rich List have disappeared from this year's, and capital gains tax could rise again in this month's Budget. Labour is driving out the people who pay the most tax, and working families will be left to cover the bill.

Small boat migrants are expected to be brought ashore in Gosport tonight, according to Reform UK's Hampshire leader George Madgwick, after a dinghy launched from Normandy this morning heading for the Hampshire coast. Coaches with a police escort have reportedly been seen in Fareham heading south. It is less than 2 weeks since the last attempt to land migrants in Gosport. Hundreds of local people turned out, 6 were arrested, and the boat was sent on to Dover instead. Hampshire is now the new Dover, and nobody in Gosport was asked.

France has fallen.

Nadhim Zahawi is the latest former Conservative minister to turn up as a Reform UK spokesman. He was Chancellor in the government that oversaw record migration, and was sacked as Conservative Party chairman in 2023 after it emerged he had paid a penalty to HMRC over his tax affairs while he was in charge of the Treasury. Reform says it wants to clean up Westminster. Instead, it keeps hiring the people who made the mess.

Wes Streeting now says Donald Trump is right. The Defence Secretary told NATO allies in Iceland that the President was "absolutely right to demand more of the UK, more of Europe" on defence. In 2017, Streeting called Trump an "odious, sad, little man". Labour still has no plan to reach even 3% of GDP on defence, while welfare costs more than 5 times as much. Andy Burnham says national security cannot come at the expense of social security. Labour will say anything to Washington, and do nothing to defend Britain.

Another migrant dinghy launched from a Normandy beach near Cherbourg this morning and is heading for the Hampshire coast. It is one of several boats crossing today. The smuggling gangs are now launching around 150 miles west of Calais and Dunkirk, and British vessels will be waiting to collect everyone on board as soon as they reach UK waters. Around 19,700 people have crossed the Channel by small boat so far this year. The gangs keep finding new routes, and Labour keeps running a taxi service.

John Cleese has backed Restore Britain at its conference. Last week, Cleese was reported to Prevent for criticising Islam. He has said he trusts Rupert Lowe more than any other political leader in the country. The establishment tried to brand a national treasure an extremist. He answered by standing with Restore.

Rupert Lowe's speech at Restore Britain's conference last night is the most important political speech this country has heard in years. For 42 minutes, he set out exactly what Restore would do and why, in plain language, with no hedging and no attempt to soften the message for the media. Most politicians spend their careers avoiding saying what voters actually think. Lowe said it all, and backed it with policy. Every Reform voter should watch it in full. Put aside what you have been told about Restore, listen to what Lowe is offering, and then ask yourself honestly whether it is the country you want your children to grow up in. Restore is not interested in half measures or keeping the establishment happy. The right must unite, and Restore is the only party worthy of your vote.

Legal immigration to the US from 45 Muslim majority countries has fallen by 96% under Donald Trump, according to new analysis of State Department data by the Cato Institute. Monthly visas and refugee admissions for people from those countries dropped from 21,096 in December 2024 to just 808 in February 2026. Refugee admissions fell from 5,157 to zero. Arrivals from Afghanistan fell from 5,563 to 9. From Pakistan, they dropped by almost 98%. Trump did it with travel restrictions, a halt to most refugee admissions and a pause on immigrant visas for dozens of countries. Meanwhile, Labour is opening new routes into Britain for Afghans and Palestinians. America is proving it can be done. Britain's government is choosing not to.

Benjamin Netanyahu has accused Andy Burnham's government of acting like a "rogue state" that is "appeasing an Islamist-leftist alliance". The Israeli Prime Minister says Israel warned Britain about an Iranian sponsored attack, only for Labour to impose sanctions on Israel the next day. He also warned that if Britain does not take back control of its borders, it will lose the country. Days later, the Prime Minister admitted Iran was likely behind the plot near RAF Fairford. Netanyahu is right. Labour punishes the allies who keep us safe and protects the people who want to harm us.3r

Restore Britain would take Britain out of the European Convention on Human Rights. The party's immigration plan says leaving the ECHR and repealing the Human Rights Act is step 1 to removing every legal barrier to deportation. It would then replace the asylum system and carry out 150,000 to 200,000 enforced removals a year. Rupert Lowe has listed the cases the ECHR protects now. A Jamaican drug dealer allowed to stay because of his right to family life. An Albanian criminal allowed to stay partly because his son would not eat foreign chicken nuggets. Foreign criminals currently have more rights in Britain than the people they harm, and Restore are the only party that will change that.

The SNP's BAME wing has launched a Black History Month campaign with an AI generated poster. Scotland has the highest drug death rate in Europe. Patients are waiting years for treatment, and schools are falling behind. The SNP has failed at every basic job of government, so it spends its time sorting Scots by skin colour instead.

Tucker Carlson asked Jacob Rees-Mogg whether Britain is a better country today than it was after defeating Hitler. "Yes, otherwise we'd all be speaking German," Rees-Mogg replied. "Who cares, there are a lot of people in Britain who can't speak English," Carlson said. Britain won the war to stay free, then voted to leave the EU to control its borders. Since then, our own politicians have let in record numbers and changed the country beyond recognition.
