Let France be our warning.

Farage apparently thinks the question of Englishness is an “academic debate”, in his words, that is not worth engaging in - a simply extraordinary thing to say. We are witnessing profound demographic change across Britain, and the leader of Reform thinks the meaning of English identity is a subject to be brushed aside because he’s scared of being called a few unpleasant names. Englishness is NOT an academic debate. The English are a historic people. We have our own ancestry, heritage, culture, traditions and national identity. Incredibly, Farage disagrees with that. My view, and Restore Britain's view, is clear. We are not simply a collection of passport holders living within a geographical boundary. And acknowledging the existence of the historic English people does not mean denying that others can develop a genuine attachment and belonging to our nation, but that does not make them ethnically English. A government can print a passport, sadly we all know that - it CANNOT falsely manufacture centuries of history or ancestral roots. The historic English people have a home - it’s called England, and we have nowhere else to go. And yes, in that home, the English are being demographically replaced. That’s just a fact. It’s happening all over Britain, it’s happened all over Britain. Go to East London, Rochdale, Luton, Birmingham, Blackburn, Bradford. I could go on. This is NOT an academic debate. This is our home, or at least it was. Farage is simply not the man to save it. You cannot claim to defend a nation when you refuse to even acknowledge its historic people because you might get your feelings hurt. The hour is simply too late for that pathetic level of gutlessness. The English are not an academic abstract afterthought. We will not have our history and entire existence erased because cowardly politicians don’t have the courage to state the truth. We are a people, and England is our home. Restore Britain will defend it.

A Restore Britain Government will do what needs to be done - civil unrest and rioting will inevitably follow. We must be ready for that, and the public must be prepared too. What needs to happen will be incredibly painful. But it is all absolutely necessary to save our home.

France will burn into the late morning hours. To what end? So they can harbour millions who hate everything of what is means to be French? Was it worth it? Will it be worth it in Britain, when similar violence inevitably erupts? I think not. We watch as migrants ransack Paris whilst flying the flag of various African countries. Some may have arrived illegally, for most their presence is entirely ‘legal’. Plenty were probably born in France, and are technically ‘French’. For the rioters, evidently, their allegiance is not to France, or to the French people. Where does their loyalty truly lie? Their clan. The civilised world’s response must reflect that. Those convicted for arson, organised violence, and attacks on innocent people must face substantial prison sentences - foreign nationals involved must be removed. Citizenships stripped from dual nationals, obviously. Mass deportations. Act before they do. And in exceptional cases, I would go further. A Restore Britain Government will develop bilateral agreements and mechanisms with third countries to accept second-generation migrant offenders convicted of domestic terrorism and other such serious crimes, who, for now, hold only British citizenship. There will be no statelessness. It will be conducted fairly, and it will cost, but it will be done, and a message will be sent. The French should do the same. If you burn down a city, terrorise law-abiding citizens and torch the society around you - there will be consequences worthy of the crime. And if your allegiance lies elsewhere, and you demonstrate that through terrorism or extreme violence, a Restore Britain Government will send you to the country you claim allegiance to - if that's where your loyalty lies, we will aim to make that a reality. Britain is just a few short years behind France. We’ve had our warning - we must take it.
