Restore Britain

Restore Britain

Restore Britain is a right-wing to far-right political party in the United Kingdom, officially registered as a political party on 13 February 2026 after starting as a pressure group in mid-2025. [1, 2]

The party is led by businessman and former Reform UK politician Rupert Lowe, who serves as its solitary Member of Parliament (MP) for Great Yarmouth. [1, 2]

Key Policies and Ideology

Positioned further to the right of Nigel Farage's Reform UK, the party advocates for an ethno-nationalist "democratic revolution" based on several hardline objectives outlined on the Restore Britain Official Website:[1, 3]

• Mass Deportations: Implementing an expansive remigration programme for illegal migrants and deporting foreign-born citizens who claim benefits or cannot speak English.
• Immigration Cap: Pushing for a net-negative migration policy.
• Welfare & Rights: Restricting voting rights and welfare exclusively to native-born British citizens.
• Justice: Holding a national referendum on the reintroduction of the death penalty.
• State & Economy: Cutting taxes, reducing the size of the government, and abolishing the TV licence fee. [, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Political Impact and Controversy

• Splitting the Right: Defections of local councillors from Reform UK and polling numbers between 4% and 9% have positioned Restore Britain as a direct electoral threat to Reform UK, particularly in upcoming tests like the Makerfield by-election. [, 2]
• High-Profile Backing: Tech billionaire Elon Musk has heavily boosted the party's profile by regularly promoting Rupert Lowe’s posts on the social media platform X. [1]
• Criticism: Advocacy groups like Hope Not Hate have labelled the party neofascist, warning that it actively capitalises on "Great Replacement" conspiracy theories and fills a vacuum left by previous fringe far-right groups. [, 2]
