Love seeing the pictures of hundreds and hundreds of Restore Britain members spending their Sundays spreading the message, putting the hours in.
Not moaning, not just posting on social media.
Doing. Taking responsibility. Exactly what we need.

Today in the music charts I'm going back to the 1st November 1966 .
I've chosen the number 1 hit "The Four Tops - Reach Out I'll Be There.
As my sisters were 11 and 8 years older than me by the time I got to an age where I could remember music they were 16 and 13 years old so our house was filled with my mum's and dad's music from the 50's and my sister's music was Motown and Soul music, both of them still being my favourite genres even today.
Do you have a favourite?

Everyone knows who he is, his mum was made into a dame and there’s been numerous TV programmes, enquiry’s and memorials made to him.
No one knows the name of the girl who was raped by the Cousins from the age of 12, had multiple visits to std clinics and ended up murdered and put through a kebab mincer
No one knows or remembers the name of the young boy who was dragged off the street for being white, tortured for hours, had his cock and bollocks cut off and then doused in petrol before being burnt alive.
There’s no memorial or enquiry for the young boy the size of a 12 year old who was stabbed to death for being white, 2 of the 3 stab words went through his back and out the front. What’s his name?
This isn’t an exhaustive list, here’s a few more names you don’t know and likely 3 little girls to add to it !

I am going to go back to the 50s today.
Although I was born in the 60s, my mum and dad used to play their favourites on our old record player, the type any 60s baby remembers, the one where you piled the 1p pieces high if the needle was jumping and where you stacked 33s to play individually but put so many on they all dropped at once.
I'm going back to 70 years ago on the 31st October 1956.
Its my departed mum's birthday on the 2nd November so this weekend is filled with sadness, she was born 1928 and died 2018.
I always believe she is with me and couldn't believe the song I remember her singing to me so clearly is on the list.
My chosen song this week is "Doris Day - Whatever Will be, Will be (Que sera, sera).
You were my best friend, my confidante, my rock and my safe harbour and I so wish you was with me today. Love you, mum x

Wonderful news for veterans and about time!
Really pleased with the response to our veterans policy paper. A short summary for those interested...
A Restore Britain government will:
Create a Department of Veterans Affairs.
We will establish a Cabinet-level Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA), bringing veterans policy, welfare, pensions, compensation, transition and veterans support under one accountable government department.
Introduce enforceable veterans’ rights.
We will introduce a statutory Veterans Charter setting defined legal entitlements, national minimum standards and duties on public bodies to deliver them.
Give every veteran one local point of contact.
We will establish a nationwide network of local DVA Veterans Officers, recruited from the veterans community and embedded in every county, unitary, district or borough level of local government, who will coordinate support, identify entitlements and escalate failures on behalf of veterans and their families.
Ensure no British veteran is without a home.
Veterans and qualifying families will receive statutory priority in housing and housing support across the United Kingdom.
Introduce a Veterans Healthcare Guarantee.
Veterans will receive free prescriptions in England, free NHS dental care, free eye tests, free hearing tests and access to specialist veteran healthcare.
Guarantee dental treatment when the NHS cannot provide it.
Where NHS dental capacity is unavailable, the DVA will commission treatment from accredited independent providers ensuring veterans receive treatment when they require it.
Strengthen specialist veterans healthcare.
Op COURAGE and Op RESTORE will be retained and strengthened, with equivalent specialist support guaranteed across the United Kingdom.
Provide employment support throughout a veteran’s working life.
In addition to employment services generally available, veterans will remain able to access DVA employment assistance after discharge if they later face redundancy, ill health or the need to change career.
Fund retraining for civilian employment.
Veterans will receive funded retraining where their military skills and qualifications do not translate directly into recognised civilian credentials.
Make military qualifications count.
We will drive greater recognition of the equivalence of certified military training, qualifications and experience by government, employers and qualification bodies.
Prioritise veterans for uniformed public service recruitment.
Police, fire and rescue, medical, prison, border and immigration services will be directed to prioritise recruitment from service leavers and the veteran community, subject to merit.
Support veterans’ families as well as veterans.
Spouses, partners, dependent children and bereaved families will receive defined entitlements and access to DVA support under the Veterans Charter.
Extend funeral support to all veterans.
The DVA will provide a funeral contribution for all qualifying veterans.
End malicious and repeated legacy legal action.
We will act decisively and legislate to prevent veterans and serving personnel being subjected to malicious, repeated or evidentially exhausted investigations, prosecutions and litigation arising from Northern Ireland, Afghanistan, Iraq or future conflicts.
Pursue those who manufacture fraudulent cases against service personnel.
All civil litigation cases against veterans will be reviewed and suspected professional misconduct. Fabricating evidence, coaching witnesses, inventing injuries and defrauding legal aid are all potential crimes and where evidence is found of such criminality it will be investigated and offenders prosecuted.
Recognise qualifying operational service through continued use of rank.
Former commissioned officers and warrant officers who have served on operations will be entitled to use their substantive rank in civilian life.
Put these commitments into law.
A Veterans Affairs and Charter Bill will establish the DVA, place the Veterans Charter and principal entitlements on a statutory footing, create the legal basis and powers for the Veterans Officer system and protect service personnel and veterans against malicious legacy action.
All put together by veteran @_HenryBolton.
Written by veterans, for veterans.
A Restore Britain Government will deliver for our veterans - I promise you that.
This is all we need to deal with the illegals! Get a couple of thousand Scottish men in kilts shouting like this at at Dover and all the illegals and Iranian/Islamic terror cells will be out of here like a shot on the 1st plane, train, truck, dingy 🤣
🚨🎥WATCH: MASSIVE CONFRONTATION WITH MIGRANTS
"YOU THINK YOU CAN COME IN HERE AND TAKE OVER OUR COUNTRY!?
NO... NOT HAPPENING!!!"
Migrant was being intimidating towards people, causing problems, thinking he owns the street
A local man had enough
Went up to him and his family's shop and told them all exactly what he thinks 🔥
Got to love the Scottish, they tell it like it is! A couple of my friends are from Glasgow and they even sound intimidating shen they are being friendly 🤣

I was a volunteer for Reform before the GE 2024 when Reform were polling about 13%. At that time the volunteers and members who had stayed faithful to the Tory party were begging those, like myself, who had left the Tory Party to join Reform, to not "split the vote", then we were told "we couldn't really have ever been true Tories in the first place", we were warned "Nigel just wanted to punish the Tories and didn't care about the Country", "we would probably be lucky to get one seat", "Labour would destroy the Country and it would be our fault" and "we had to see sense and come back to the Tories, they were the only ones who could stop Labour" and on and on it went. A lot of us in Restore are ex-Reformers from those early days, a lot of us will remember the excitement we felt that night at the Count. We knew realistically we weren't going to win but remained hopeful we would win some seats and finally break the uni-party mould. We still felt on a high when Jonathon Reynolds, followed by Angela Rayner took to the stage, because we knew we had come a good second in an area where Labour had always had the vote. Would we have voted differently had we known how bad things were going to be, NO! We had left the Tories because we felt badly let down and we didn't trust them any more.
So when Reform volunteers and members now plead with Restore volunteers and members to not split the vote, its like deja vu! Just like back then, there was a reason why we left the Tories, there is also a reason now! And even if Restore vanished tomorrow, just like if Reform had disappeared in 2024, we just simply wouldn't vote! Reform lost us! The trust has gone!
God bless her and her family! What a brave woman! Her daughter living in the ditch was probably able to endure the 9 months she was there because she had learned the skills of survival, trust and bravery from the best teacher of all, her mum!
Hassana was grateful to her mother for saving her from what could have been a very different fate. Zainabu, however, did not describe herself as a heroine. She had done what she believed she had to do to keep her children alive.
Her survival came at a cost. She had lasting injuries from the beatings, including a dislocated shoulder and a missing tooth. The family had also lost their home life and the security they once knew.
Zainabu had managed to protect her daughter, but she could not undo what the family had endured.
Her story was reported in 2017 by Nigerian journalist Eromo Egbejule in The Guardian Nigeria and by NPR journalist Ofeibea Quist-Arcton. Both accounts drew on interviews with Zainabu and documented how she kept her daughter hidden until the military recaptured the town.
A mother was beaten for denying that she had a daughter. She responded by making her attackers believe she had lost her mind, while her child remained hidden in a ditch for nine months.
Zainabu Hamayaji's story is a reminder of the lengths one parent went to protect her child when the people who should have been safe from harm were living under the threat of violence.

When a mother wants to protect, she would go to any length to do it.

This guy works so bloody hard for @RestoreBritain He’s up and down the country spreading the word, supporting the new and existing branches, all the while trying to bring up a family and make this country a better place for them and, us! Credit to him! It can’t be easy. Thank you Damon 🙏 you are appreciated.
I'm a young dad with one daughter, and more than anything I want her to be able to afford a home and build her future here.
I never planned to get involved in party politics. But seeing how hard it has become for young families to get started, I couldn't sit back. That's why I became a councillor and why I back @RestoreBritain.
Followed and shared! Please help Restore Britain Falkirk to get more followers by liking and sharing!

White slaves. 🏴🇬🇧
For three hundred years, pirates from Algiers sailed to Britain and Ireland, came ashore at night, and took people from their beds.
Baltimore, 1631. A hundred and seven people gone in one night. At most three ever came home.
Over a million Europeans ended up in chains in North Africa. Nobody bought them. They were stolen.
The kings of Europe paid ransom. For centuries.
In 1816, Britain stopped paying.
Lord Exmouth. Twenty British ships, six Dutch, against one of the strongest fortresses on earth. 27 August 1816. Nine hours. Fifty thousand cannonballs. 128 British sailors killed.
The next day the Dey signed. Every Christian slave freed. 1,083 people walked out of Algiers in one afternoon.
Nobody came for them... Until we did. ⚓🇬🇧💪

Wanted to share this from a very talented writer called Mick Flaherty so funny.
THANK YOU, CHANCELLOR. THANK YOU SO MUCH. 🇬🇧❤️
I’ve been reading today’s Budget and I’m considering cancelling my direct debits. Financial independence is finally within reach.
🥒 Cheaper gherkins, baked beans and chocolate. Potential savings of £21 a year - that’s 40p a week. I’ve already rewritten my will. My son gets the house, but the gherkin fortune is going into a trust fund. I’m not having the little bastard blow my life’s savings on cocaine and scratchcards.
🍬 Import tariffs scrapped on boiled sweets and toffees. Thank Christ. I’ve seen pensioners outside Aldi exchanging sexual favours for a bag of Werther’s Originals.
🍊 Cheaper marmalade. Excellent, ‘cos I’ve been spreading Vaseline on my toast since March. Paddington Bear’s probably knocking one out behind King’s Cross.
🧄 Cheaper garlic. Fantastic!! I’ve been buying it one clove at a time from a bloke behind Aldi. Last week he offered me three bulbs and a handjob for £20.
💷 Income Tax thresholds frozen until 2031. Absolutely beautiful. Earn a bit more, get dragged into paying more tax, then watch the Chancellor congratulate himself for helping working people. It’s the financial equivalent of being mugged, having your trousers stolen and being handed a 40p voucher for gherkins as compensation.
🍫 Cheaper chocolate-covered wafers. I’ve already ordered a reinforced safe, appointed three trustees and instructed my accountant to establish an offshore wafer portfolio in the Cayman Islands. Apparently, HMRC wants to know why I’ve declared a KitKat as a dependent.
🚌 Bus fares capped at £2. If my business ever collapses, I can now afford to travel to the Jobcentre and explain that I went bankrupt despite unprecedented savings on fucking marmalade.
💡 Gas standing charges being scrapped. Lovely news, until you find out the cost is being transferred to the price of the gas itself. That’s the financial equivalent of a burglar returning your television and charging you £45 to watch it.
Anyhoo… the government calls some of these its FIVE EVERYDAY FIXES.
I’ve calculated that if I save 40p every week, I could afford a second-hand Ford Fiesta in approximately 400 years…. Assuming nobody’s eaten the fucking gherkins.
Thank you, Chancellor. You’ve saved the country. I’ll name my first jar of marmalade after you. 🇬🇧
