Restore
Britain is a political party in the United Kingdom, founded and led by the
former Reform UK politician Rupert Lowe. Founded as a cross-party advocacy
group, it was reordered into a political party in February 2026.
Background
Rupert
Lowe was elected as one of Reform UK's five members of Parliament in the 2024
general election, representing the constituency of Great Yarmouth.[6] However,
Lowe was suspended from the party on 7 March 2025, after allegations of
threatening behaviour towards the party chairman, Zia Yusuf, as well as alleged
other incidents of threatening behaviour between December 2024 and February
2025. The allegations and Lowe's suspension both occured on 7 March, just 2
days after Lowe raised concerns and criticised Nigel Farage on 5 March in a
Daily Mail interview. Lowe and the seven members of his parliamentary staff
denied these claims and said that he has desired to make an alternative to
Reform UK. better source needed]
History
On 30
June 2025, Lowe launched Restore Britain to advocate the deportation of all
illegal immigrants in the United Kingdom, protecting British culture and
restoring what it describes as "Christian principles".The launch
coincided with that of the right-wing party Advance UK by another former Reform
UK member, Ben Habib. Susan Hall, the leader of the Conservative Party in the
London Assembly, joined the advisory board.
After
Reform UK leader Nigel Farage announced an independent enquiry into the
grooming gangs scandal and did not follow through, Lowe crowdfunded £600,000
and announced his own enquiry, run through Restore Britain.
On 13
February 2026, Lowe announced that Restore Britain will become a political
party.[5][19] As a result, Susan Hall and Gavin Williamson both left the
organization.
Platform
Restore
Britain has been described as right-wing better to far-right.
Lowe, has
previously said that Nigel Farage was "watering down" Reform's policy
on the deportation of illegal migrants. Many other principles of the
organization revolve around ending diversity programmes and "the cancer of
wokery", as well as stating that Parliament is broken and ignores the
people.
