Rupert Lowe, Restore Britain, The Rape Gang Enquiry - 'Then millions must go'. 'I don't care'.
Rape gang inquiry account has been posting more testimonies today. While there's probably an obvious reason why it's not getting any press coverage, it doesn't help that there's no press packs released. Just a slew of quotes and twitter posts. The website is still a single page with no press information. There's no promise of a report or any sort of collated information about the gangs. All a bit shoddy. I hope they do something soon.
Le double post. Restore Britain showcasing Lowe taking part in select committees, which is something Farage never did. He's actually active in Parliament outside the Chamber and appears to enjoy involving himself in the boring minutiae of Parliamentary procedure, which likely means he takes his work seriously
New poll out, placing Restore on 7% after just three weeks. It took Reform (who are well in the lead in this poll) a while longer to reach a similar level. FindOutNow tend to be an outlier with their polling, but they've also had a good run of getting things right when other pollsters got it spectacularly wrong.

What's annoying is I actually think they did a decent job of the inquiry itself thus far and just failed at documenting and publicizing it. The tabloidy quote graphics were a good idea but they shouldn't be the entire media output for an inquiry into abuse and corruption. It's unserious.
Aggregating the posts from the enquiry takes following three different timelines and even then factual information is incomplete. The crowdfunder page is the single informative document I've found.
Structure of the Inquiry:
A qualified panel will be appointed to oversee the inquiry.
A legal advisory team will support the panel throughout the inquiry.
The inquiry will take place in three defined stages:
Stage 1 – Launch & Evidence Collection
Official launch of the inquiry with a call for written evidence.
A secure submission process will be set up with a clear deadline for all submissions.
Stage 2 – Public Hearings
A multiple day live-streamed hearing period.
Hearings will be closed to the public (for safety and control) but broadcast online to ensure transparency.
Panel-led questioning of witnesses; in cases of non-attendance, questions will still be put on record.
Witness protection and safeguarding will be prioritised.
Stage 3 – Report & Publication
A closed period for the panel to compile findings and draft the report.
Pre-set publication date for the final report.
Follow-up Q&A session led by Rupert and the panel to publicly respond to the findings.
Core Inquiry Questions
To maintain focus and deliver actionable conclusions, the inquiry will centre around three key questions:
What happened?
How did it happen?
Why was it allowed to happen?
Funding
Costs will be kept minimal and transparent, covering:
Panel and legal advisor fees
Venue hire and security
Travel expenses for witnesses
Any surplus funds will be donated to charities supporting victims of grooming and exploitation.
Every line of spending will be published
Witnesses/participants
Victims and Survivors
Individuals affected by grooming gangs who are willing to share their experiences.
Survivors will be given the option to testify anonymously or via written/video statement to ensure their safety and comfort.
Whistleblowers and Frontline Professionals
Police officers, social workers, and council employees who raised concerns or witnessed systemic failings.
Former professionals who left their positions in protest or disillusionment.
Institutional Figures
Representatives from:
Local Authorities (especially those implicated in previous cases)
Police Forces
Crown Prosecution Service (CPS)
Social Services
Local Education Authorities
Politicians and Decision Makers
MPs, councillors, and other officials who were in office during key periods.
Those who may have been warned, made decisions, or ignored red flags.
Academics and Journalists
Experts on child exploitation, grooming, and community impact.
Investigative journalists who have documented the failures.
What Happens If Witnesses Don’t Show?
If a witness refuses to appear:
The panel will still proceed with the line of questioning, documenting the absence and reading questions into the record.
Any evidence related to that individual or institution will still be examined and referenced, including public records, whistleblower statements, or previous reports.
Non-attendance will be noted in the final report, possibly raising questions about accountability or transparency.
The livestream format ensures the public sees who did and didn’t cooperate.
Where appropriate, legal avenues may be considered (e.g. public letters of concern or formal requests) to highlight deliberate obstruction.

It's been coming. Habib spazzed out all weekend over a GB News piece in which host Nana Akua asked Charlie Downes whether she is English and he replied essentially 'in one sense yes but in a much more meaningful sense, no'. Yesterday one of the founders of Advance defected to Restore with some harsh words, in part about Habib's ethno-sperging.
Shitskin realises that someone actually means 'No browns' when they say 'no browns' and isn't just paying lip service to it. Immediately melts down. I hope they all get bulldozed into the channel.
I'm not feeling so good, Advance bros. I am glad that we can finally call our ethnicity something. Anglo-Saxon sounds better than British because England is made up of tribes. Sadly, the Cornish are all but extinct.
I hate the double-barrelledness, and it doesn't seem accurate either; I might be anglo myself but I don't consider myself Germanic in the slightest, English/Briton is a hybridized thing with a very specific lineage, we're descended from Anglo-Saxons yeah, but also the Brythons and for some poor unfortunates like myself the Gaels too, we're despite this the same people though still different.
Britons is what works best, nice and inclusive where it counts whilst also retaining the necessary specificity to kick out the not-us, not brit-ish either, has to be capital B Britons.
If it is proven, without any doubt, that a grown man has raped, murdered and tortured young girls? Then it is my view that the monster in question should be put to death.
I have no moral objections to that, whatsoever.
It is Restore Britain policy to put this question to the British people in a legally binding referendum.
When the guilt is undeniable, and the crime so very monstrous, should the individual in question receive the death penalty?
My own personal view is yes. Absolutely.
I understand the reservations that many hold, and that is exactly why a referendum is important.
Restore Britain members and elected politicians will all be entirely free to campaign in that referendum however they choose.
I would vote in favour and I would campaign in favour.
If the British people vote yes, as I believe they will, then the savages will be put to death.
Good.
If you want the British people to have their say, then there is finally a political party with the courage to give you all that choice.
Please correct me if I’m wrong, and I’m sure plenty will try, but British women don’t particularly care about these boring template social media posts from politicians for ‘international women’s day’.
We are all fed up of this meaningless bullshit that we constantly get from MPs. It means nothing. It achieves nothing. It changes nothing. Ever.
It’s my view that British women would rather politicians put their efforts into make our communities safe again, secure again, welcoming again. Where women feel comfortable walking through town without a man alongside them, or free to enjoy a night out without foreign perverts and illegal migrants leering and grabbing at them.
And yes, of course, there are British creeps and abusers. We all know that. Sadly, we can’t deport them, prison will have to suffice. But we can remove the foreign ones, and so we should. In the many, many, many thousands.
Or maybe they’d prefer politicians stopped indulging these mad fantasies that a man can become a woman - so blatantly degrading what it even is to be a woman.
Let’s go one further. MPs could vote to entirely ban biological men from women’s sports, spaces and prisons. I would certainly cast my vote in favour. Restore Britain would scrap the gender recognition act and impose strict legal protections for single-sex spaces. Action, not words.
I suspect that’s something the vast majority of British women could get behind...
What about creating an economy where women and their husbands feel financially secure enough to raise a family? Possibly have more children, if they choose? A country that feels safe enough to actually build that life?
A complete restructuring of the childcare system that doesn’t bankrupt mothers if they wish to work as their children grown up. That’s what I want. That’s what Restore Britain wants.
The Government could even act to stop the ongoing rape of Britain - where endless vulnerable girls have been raped by gangs of foreign men. Many being trafficked overseas where they still remain.
Is that not important enough? Clearly, it isn't. And it makes me sick thinking about the lack of any appetite to tackle it from this Government.
Furious doesn't cover it.
Everything has to change. All of it. Not minor tinkering or reform. Absolute restoration is required.
British women are every bit as patriotic as us men. They might not shout as much about it, but millions and millions and millions of British women want to restore our country to a nation they are proud to call home.
So, please, politicians must now spare us these empty platitudes that are entirely pointless.
It’s my view that British women now want action. No more talk. Action. Far-reaching, radical, ruthless action - to protect their interests, their safety, and their families.
There is a political party now dedicated to doing all of this.
Restore Britain.
I am so proud that millions of women are putting their faith in us.
Sole traders. Micro businesses with one or two employees. Freelancers. Plumbers. Electricians. Hairdressers. Mechanics. Accountants. Gardeners. Whatever it is, whoever they are. These are the workers that keep the economy going. Not the big global corporates.
Politicians, and those devising the rules, simply do not understand how these people live. Nobody ever even talks about the one or two people operations in Westminster.
Saturday morning in the bureaucrat’s world? Friday working from home, so nice easy day to finish off the week. Laptop closed by 15.00. Phone off for the weekend, not a care in the world. Life is sweet. Holiday coming up, mortgage comfortable, pension growing nicely.
The sole trader? Getting invoices and paperwork sorted at 6am before the children wake up. Chasing up late payments. Weighing up whether to do that last minute emergency call out, or spend time with the kids on a Saturday. Getting the diary sorted for next week. Phone goes and goes all weekend. It is never-ending. It does not stop.
It’s two different worlds honestly. The issue is that the latter entirely funds the former, and the former is hellbent on making life as difficult as possible for productive Britain.
I want to be really clear about what Restore Britain would do. Two things.
Crush parasitic Britain.
Unleash productive Britain.
First. Scrap IR35. It has created years of confusion, fear and chaos for contractors and small operators. It has pushed countless self-employed people into pointless paperwork and rigid inflexibility. Doesn’t work. It’s a right pain in the arse for millions. Scrap it.
Second, we will double the VAT threshold.
The current threshold traps thousands of small businesses just as they begin to grow. Many deliberately stop expanding to avoid the enormous administrative burden of VAT and the brutal cost hikes which drive demand away. The evidence of is obvious. Thousands hover just below the threshold, refusing to grow, hire or pay more tax. It is ABSURD.
Restore Britain would double the VAT threshold so small businesses can grow without being punished for success. This is absolutely necessary.
An important one - we would dramatically simplify the tax system for sole traders and micro-businesses (and everyone else, but that's separate).
Instead of forcing small operators through pages of complicated accounting rules designed for large corporations, we will introduce a far simplified tax regime for businesses below a certain size. Less paperwork, fewer forms, clearer rules. More money for them, less for the accountants and parasitic professional class. Sounds like a good deal, doesn’t it?
Next. We will end the endless culture of inspections and bureaucratic interference from the bureaucrats. Too many small businesses now live in fear of accidental breaches - whether it’s health and safety nonsense, employment law complexity, ridiculous data laws or constantly changing compliance requirements. The stress is immense. If you are a sole trader or micro-business acting in good faith, the system should support you, not threaten you.
Restore Britain will free them from endless regulatory suffocation. The mental health release on that is worth it alone.
Means a lot to me, this one. Restore Britain will make it easier for tradespeople to hire apprentices. This is important.
One of the biggest problems small businesses face is bringing in the next generation. The current system is too complicated, too expensive and too rigid for small firms.
Restore Britain will introduce simple, flexible apprenticeship schemes designed specifically for small businesses and trades.
Up next, we will simplify planning and licensing rules. For small builders, tradespeople and contractors - planning restrictions and local bureaucracy can delay work for months and add unnecessary costs. I detest planning departments more than I can describe in language appropriate for a Saturday morning.
These jumped-up empire-building little runts running councils across Britain will have their power stripped away from them. We will let people do business, we will let business owners run their businesses without the sneering council worker’s constant box ticking. Not complicated.
We will restore respect for the self-employed. Look at how they were treated during lockdown. Like dirt. Entirely abandoned whilst others were paid to do nothing. That must be addressed, and they must be compensated. The excluded must finally be recognised. That wrong must be rectified.
Under a Restore Britain Government, their efforts will be appreciated, celebrated and most importantly?
Rewarded.
This is the key point. Let’s not pretend otherwise.
The five golden rules of business.
What’s in it for me?
We will radically slash tax and raise thresholds. Tax on dividends would be hacked down so that success pays. More work, pays. Effort, pays. If the electrician does that last minute job on a Saturday, it will be worth their time. They will be rewarded, not HMRC.
Restore Britain will slash the bureaucracy, simplify the rules, cut the taxes. We will give small businesses the freedom they need to thrive, to support their families and to succeed.
Parasitic Britain will end.
Sole traders and micro businesses finally have a political party that will fight for them.
As it turns out, my penis can get much, much more erect.
He certainly knows how to say the right things.
The small business twext was right up my street.
It's been coming.

Yesterday one of the founders of Advance defected to Restore with some harsh words, in part about Habib's ethno-sperging.
I still respect Habib far more than Nigel. He won't compromise his lifelong beliefs to get on the strongest horse. I'm just glad he's having his spergout now instead of before the general election.
A woman of Ghanian descent who dedicates herself to the UK can certainly be considered British, but the word 'English' describes a particular ethnic group she isn't part of.

I disagree, if someone isn't English, Scottish, Welsh (or Northern Irish at a push) then they're not British. Ghana isn't part of Britain. If I dedicated myself to Japan I wouldn't be considered Japanese or Asian.
"Britain" refers specifically to the British Isles (or possibly the island of Great Britan, at the strictest), therefore "British" refers to the ethnic groups originating in these isles, which Ghana is not a part of.
I understand your pain, but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Many people of foreign descent enhance the lives of heritage Britons and would be in a fish without water back 'home'. I'm antiimigration because it is used as a cudgel to suppress wages/workers rights, and can easily reduce social cohesion.
Britons is what works best, nice and inclusive where it counts whilst also retaining the necessary specificity to kick out the not-us, not brit-ish either, has to be capital B Britons.
Lowe used Britons in his op-ed title a few days ago, which I enjoyed.
'English ethnicity exists' is a good example of Lowe's ability to move the needle - he posted that on March 1st and now a week later the government have denied the existence of an English ethnicity and GB News have an ex-Boris advisor saying 'there is a genocide happening in this island because it is being taken over by different people that are not indigenous'. That's a huge tone shift.
Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood says lolno (Friday):
Also on Friday Habib appeared on Dan Wootton's Outspoken, where he says the English aren't an ethnicity because they aren't racially pure, because the German royals weren't Saxon.
Man's a pompous tool. That said, I think he should continue to have at because the existence or otherwise of an English race is an argument that should be in the public domain.
And finally to highlight a not-previously mentioned Restore senior policy guy - Harrison Pitt hosted a longform discussion with Renaud Camus and Martin Sellner, who are both banned by the UK.
Many more do not enhance their host country and have been abroad long enough to be a stranger to their home country. We have plenty of scumbag gangbangers in the US that have lived in the US since they were kids that people use the argument that they have no connection to their home country to justify keeping them here. Fuck them, If you are a burden to your host country you need to go back regardless.
There's nothing that any paki could to to make up for the immense evil their countrymen have inflicted here, and even if they could, there's no workable mechanism to sort the "good" ones from the bad ones, since they've shown all it takes to go from pillar of the community to child-gang-rapist is a text message from their cousin. As for what they will be like back home, that's the other country's problem.
I understand your pain, but don't throw the baby out with the bathwater. Many people of foreign descent enhance the lives of heritage Britons and would be in a fish without water back 'home'. I'm antiimigration because it is used as a cudgel to suppress wages/workers rights, and can easily reduce social cohesion.
Shut up Slope, I never can tell if you Yella bastards eat the dog or fuck it.
What pain? I can't imagine a Japanese person feeling pain when they inform me I'm not Japanese or Asian, regardless of how much I've enhanced their lives. Words have meanings, Britain isn't in Asia and Ghana isn't in Britain.
I can appreciate the contributions of some immigrants without needing to pretend that they're British.
I don't care whether they feel like a fish out of water in their home country, invariably they still have relatives there and an understanding of their culture from their parents. In my experience most second-gen immigrants regularly go back for holidays anyway.
What I care about is feeling like a fish out of water in my own country, which is what happens when you become a minority in your hometown within 10 years.
