    Rupert Lowe is “addressing that directly” because everybody is starting to realise what is going on. And he can’t ignore it anymore. The “we will never work with the Tories” young boys in Restore are being led by a leader who is *literally* working with the Tories. They are either too dumb to see it or they are playing the game. The Tories are encouraging Restore while targeting Lib Dem-facing Tory seats because it is *a deliberate strategy*. Tories know Restore will not win a single seat outside Great Yarmouth. So they are using Restore to try and cannibalise Reform thereby allowing the Tories to remain dominant in exchange for … ?? The very young boys who think they are revolutionaries are actually preserving the status-quo. True story. Everybody in Westminster knows this is happening.

    I agree with this. Like many of Jewish heritage I find the conflation of anti-Zionism with anti-Semitism flawed and upsetting. It does a disservice to the (many) Jewish people who are deeply uneasy with the recent actions of Israel, and also risks reducing the term ‘anti-semitism’ to an empty husk; a term so hollowed out and undermined by extrapolation that it risks becoming detached from the gravity of its original meaning.

    RT @jeffreytucker: Can't stop thinking about this paper showing that the Pfizer shot is associated with 40% more deaths than the Moderna shot. What if I came to you and said: Coke is 40% more deadly than Pepsi. What would you next question be? You would surely be alarmed that carbonated colas are significantly deadly at all. If so, by how much overall? What if the government forced colas on people anyway? I guess we do not know the answer – still no real comparison on this scale of vaccinated vs. unvaccinated to my knowledge – but it still raises the question why these shots are on the market at all, much less forced on people including children.

    RT @RupertLowe10: I want to address an allegation directly, because Reform politicians seem determined to spread the idea that I am somehow working in coordination with the Conservative Party and Kemi Badenoch. Yes, I was a member of the Conservative Party. In 1993. My children have since been born and grown up. It was more than thirty years ago. Literally, a lifetime ago. Many of the Reform leadership certainly can’t say the same. Yes, I've met Kemi Badenoch. I speak to her occasionally. I like her personally. We have worked together in Parliament. She spoke positively about our rape gang inquiry, and I thanked her for it. Numerous Conservative MPs have supported my parliamentary work, including our inquiry. Esther McVey. Nick Timothy. Jack Rankin. Peter Bedford. I could go on. I am not going to apologise for that. I will work with anyone in Parliament who is prepared to help deliver meaningful change. We have achieved results by doing precisely that. Does that mean I forgive the Conservatives for what they did to Britain between 2010 and 2024? Absolutely not. It was a betrayal. I have literally established a national political party to fight them at the ballot box. I am delighted when we beat them, which is a growing amount. All that should be a fairly substantial clue… But opposing a political party does not require you to behave like a petulant child towards every single person associated with it. Conservative MPs believed I would do a good job on the Public Accounts Committee. I accepted the opportunity to scrutinise government spending and fight for British taxpayers. Again, absolutely no apologies. I think we have delivered results. Now let's compare that with Reform. Reform tried to have me imprisoned over false allegations. I would be in prison today if they had their way. Despite everything, I have repeatedly attempted to work with Reform MPs in Parliament. I have invited them to support initiatives, collaborate on important issues and help deliver results. Time and again, those invitations have been ignored. My emails don’t even get a reply. I happily sign their motions and support their efforts, I did earlier this week. The feeling is not mutual. They complain. They moan. They attack. They endlessly manufacture personal grievances. But ask them to put their animosities aside and actually achieve something together? Suddenly, it's total silence. I've received more constructive support in Parliament from Labour MPs than from Reform. Think about that. It is grievance politics at its most pathetic. Negative, unproductive and deeply unprofessional. My position is incredibly straightforward. At elections, we are opponents. In Parliament, we have a responsibility to get things done. I believe that is what our constituents want us to do. Maybe I’m wrong, but I think not. Reform claim we stand in more local council Reform seats than anyone else. Yes, because so many more Reform councillors resign in disgrace than any other party. We are moving towards standing in 100% of local council by-elections. We’ve stood in Reform seats, Labour seats, Tory seats. Everywhere and anywhere. I intend to fight both Reform and the Conservatives for every vote. I want Restore Britain to win over millions of people who previously voted for those parties. But that does not mean I have to insult everyone I disagree with, refuse to speak to political opponents or sabotage decent initiatives because somebody else might receive a little credit. I was elected to represent my constituents, not to participate in an endless Westminster playground feud. Do I like Kemi Badenoch and some other Conservative MPs personally? Yes. Will I work with them when it benefits the British people? Yes. Do I fundamentally oppose the Conservative Party's record and want Restore Britain to defeat them electorally? Yes. Their 14 years of power was an utter betrayal, and is largely responsible for the social, economic and demographic vandalism we have endured. All three things can be true. Any serious adult should be capable of understanding that. It is not difficult to comprehend. I will work with Conservatives. I will work with Labour. I will work with Reform, if they ever decide to behave constructively. Reform's increasingly nasty, brash and personally unpleasant approach to politics says far more about them than it does about me. It’s just downright rude. They seem to believe that refusing to work with anyone is a demonstration of strength. In my view, it’s a weakness that erodes our politics and fails our constituents. I have said it again and again. I will work with anyone in parliament to deliver for the British people. And I make no apologies for doing so.

She was programmed by pre-2016 EU software and never got the NPC update patch. She was a clown minister who Sir Humphry easily tricked on everything they cared about - a perfect representative of the Tories for 30 years. She says the Boriswave happened because she and other Tory ministers "didn't notice" the numbers - DIRECT QUOTE!! No wonder 'morale has never been higher' in rancid Tory world and the Idiocracy tells you she's a serious character you shd trust. And if tempted to think Farage can turn things round... Remember, most voters have NO IDEA HOW MANY MILLIONS THE BORISWAVE WAS. SW1 has persuaded itself the public OVERestimate immigration but they massively UNDER estimate it. SW1 lives in a parallel world as always (and this is getting worse as the information ecosystem fragments, if you depend on Bluesky you wouldnt know 3rd generation migrants are torching France, youd think 'the real story' is white racism and it's 'smart politics for Burnham to rejoin without a referendum' etc). I described this in February and said - one simple goal for 'the right' is to communicate the numbers on the Boriswave, if you do this politics will change a lot. But 'the right' is such a farce the entire ecosystem has failed to do this ONE crucial thing. And you think they could deal with Sir Humphrey???! For 30 years, 'the right' has been total losers on campaigning and FOCUS. The Right is exactly like MPs generally: 100% inability to FOCUS on anything, 100% toddler attention span on whatever is leading 'the news'. Farage had one job. He failed. Escaping our nightmare requires new political leadership + new team + new campaign machine + new story facing the reality of our world and the reality of the electoral dynamics, info ecosystem etc. It is laughable to think Kemi-kasi or Farage could do this, they will both just bounce from studio to studio as pure NPCs...

    Iran has cost the Republicans far more than anyone expected. It was a catastrophic mistake. And if Reform or the Tories were in charge, we would have gone to war right behind them. On day one, Restore Britain said no. It was not right for the British people, and we were absolutely right to draw that line in the sand. The consequences of ANOTHER pointless Middle Eastern war have reached far into the homes of ordinary British families. The price of petrol. The cost of heating. The weekly food shop. The mortgage. The small business struggling to pay its electricity bill. YOUR life has been made so much more expensive by THEIR war. Every pointless escalation has made life more expensive for people who are already being squeezed from every direction. For what? To what end? What has this war achieved? Absolutely nothing of worth. Restore Britain said no. Not because we support the Iranian regime. Obviously that is not the case. But because the first duty of a British government is to protect Britain and its people. And that very much includes protecting British families from the economic consequences of wars that are evidently and clearly not in our national interest. When oil prices rise, families pay more to fill their cars. Those moving goods face higher diesel costs. Farmers pay more to operate their machinery. Businesses face rising transport and production bills. Those costs do not stay at the petrol pump. That gets passed on. EVERYTHING gets more expensive. It is always the same people who end up paying. It’s not the politicians making grand speeches about international leadership. It’s not the commentators demanding military action from the comfort of television studios. It is British mums and dads trying to stretch the wage for a few extra days. It’s the pensioner frightened to put the heating on. The young couple wondering whether they can afford a home. The small business owner calculating whether another increase in costs will finally force them to close. They have been handed another bill for someone else’s war - a war backed by everyone on the right apart from Restore Britain. Farage said this is the ‘right one’, and 'the gloves need to come off’. That is VERY easy to say from a GB News studio. A Restore Britain government will put the interests of its own citizens before the approval of foreign leaders. Britain does not need another foreign war. We tried that. It failed, over and over. The abuse I received from Reform politicians for saying so was extreme. They were wrong. The Tories were wrong. Restore Britain was right. We need cheaper energy, affordable food, secure borders. We need to control inflation. We need to make our economy deliver for working men and women. THAT is our aim.

    Woah. Pay for a single NHS exec in East Cheshire jumps from £172k to £377k in a single year despite the fact that for the second year in a row the trust in question ranks bottom in the league tables for A&E wait times. Clearly, this shouldn’t be possible yet it is just one small example of the type of mismanagement of public funds which typifies our broken public sector and its wanton disregard for taxpayer money, and for which the British people deserve accountability. Incidentally, when Kemi Badenoch told Camilla Tominey on GB News this weekend that she invited Rupert Lowe onto the Public Accounts Committee because “he turned up for work”, this is, presumably, exactly what she meant. It’s hard to see many other leaders of political parties poring over line items of NHS expenditure in such granularity yet it is exactly this level of scrutiny-boring, unglamorous, devoid of media grabbing soundbites- that we need more of.

    On behalf of every British taxpayer in the country, I just gave the Chancellor and his pygmy ministers the honest assessment of our public finances. They did not like it.

    Holding the most senior NHS civil servants to account on failing executives receiving such outrageous salaries despite poor hospital performance. My view is to link the leadership pay to league tables and watch the overall scores fly up...

    RT @RollingHedge: This is so well articulated- send to your normie BBC/MSM programmed friends. Make them read it. All of it.

    What a depressing Labour u-turn on the extension of ILR for Boriswave care workers. It’s not just the huge cost heading our way, it’s the way that care workers are singled out for the sentimental treatment we usually reserve for NHS nurses. For our own benefit as a country we need the average carer to be better paid, better trained, and higher status (I recently wrote a book partly about this The Care Dilemma). But we don’t have to pretend they are all angels: there are some who are v good, most who are average and too many who are useless, as in any walk of life. The immigrant carers are coming here for a better life from poorer often failing societies not because they love looking after British people. In my own last hospital stay most the care assistants were Boriswave women, mostly from Africa - some decent some indifferent - but ALL spoke quite poor and v heavily accented English that was sometimes hard to understand and unless I spoke slowly and deliberately they struggled to understand me. This is obviously a sensitive issue that many people experience but don’t feel able to talk about (though it must be reflected in those low satisfaction surveys), partly because a carer has helped you when you are vulnerable and there is a kind of reflex gratitude even if the care has actually been a bit sloppy or incompetent (and you also feel you’re getting it free so shouldn’t moan, even if you’re paying more and more in tax). Yet it’s crazy that we are spending billions subsidising this when we could be using the money to incentivise British ppl, who speak the language fluently and understand the culture, to do these jobs.
