Lowe seems to be more or less wholeheartedly embracing the ethnonationalism with *exceptions*. There are very obviously non white Britons who fit in, contribute, and have everything except the racial profile. Hell, I'm one of them. And I can entirely understand why the remigrationists say theirs is the moderate option - it is - because if we keep kicking the can down the road what will actually happen is either a massive and unselective pogrom a few years later, baby and bathwater stuff, or some form of "New Troubles", not confined to Northern Ireland. And not the uniparty, not Reform, not anyone can do anything to prevent it.
Restore does not seem to want that, they seem to want an end to the freeloading, and the ghettoisation of major cities. That whites should be, and remain beyond the foreseeable future, a clear majority in Britain should not be a controversial position to take. That recent noncontributing arrivals should be at the back of the queue for state services should also be noncontroversial.
Migration works best with countries where there are clear and good reasons for traffic in both directions. What has happened at increasing speed since 2015 is nothing short of settler colonialism.
The point is, is we don't know what Restore wants, because on the one hand, it's basically reform-esque, but slightly more right-wing on certain cases (Grooming Gangs). And on the other hand, it's endorsed by the likes of Steve Laws/ Zoomer historian. If you're serious about it being a political party, you're going to have to do interviews to the broadcast media, and it's all you're going to be asked about.
Agree, but we don't know what any party wants. Reform was supposedly going to save us from uniparty mass-migrationism, then they abandoned that track and started absorbing failed tories en masse. There are some interesting levers being pulled in their background as well. One thing we know across Europe is that "more of the same" is no longer acceptable, it will end badly, one way or another. But every attempt to overturn the Eurouniparty dies somehow. In the case of Reform/Restore it seems far more of a self-inflicted injury in the form of what was done to Lowe, than in other countries (in France FN kept out by a perverse voting system, in Germany AfD kept out by uniparty "firewall, in Austria, FPö self-immolating over secretly recorded comments, but now coming back ...)
I don't know, I thought it was a bit nit-picking to criticise the pub/halal/British farmers meat malarky. I understand you think this is just one manifestation of a general 'red meat to the mob' mindset but perhaps best to wait until that becomes bleeding obvious rather than generalising from one small questionable policy nestled among a raft of otherwise good ones .
Those accusations were also made against Michael Jackson, if I remember correctly. All "odd" celebrities end up being accused of removing their ribs to suck themselves off.
I remember the name and the face and the weird eyes and the black leather and the outrage but none of the details. Like most other people I'm secretly fascinated by shocking things but in his case not enough to actually watch him or find anything out about him. I think he might have been a singer.
An actual serious radical political org, talks milquetoast in public, and then progressively implements a radical agenda. It uses every crisis to further its radical aims, and sometimes even secretly manufactures or at least goads crisis to get the policy it wants. Just ask FDR.
A joke radical org talks radical, gets bogged in hypotheticals about said radical nonsense, and then proceeds to lose playing the perfect patsy for its enemies. Even American politics is infested by this nonsense.
We probably need something like a civic ethnonationalism.
With a clear racial element but allow others who share our ethnocentrism to be a part of the team as it were. Make it clear that our hostility isn't racial, but against other systems of ethnocentrism. The left attempts to push assymetric liberalism with whites as second class atomised individuals whilst other ethnic groups can function on the group level.
If an outgroup has their own system of ethnocentrism - their own in group/outgroup dynamics - they are clearly willing to push their interests on the group level - this means we can do the same - and we can ask the question, is this group good for us? For afro islamic immigrants the answer is gonna be no
You said that "despite the massive online following, there’s actually very little Lowe and Farage disagree on". They do disagree on something crucial though, i.e. whether everyone who the traitors have brought in can stay. Farage says 'yes minus up to 600,000 illegals'. Lowe says no and gives a list of reasons (saying 'or', not 'and', as in any of these) why people can be deported regardless of whether they came legally. He also specifies that immigration must and will be reversed. Since his video, Farage has confirmed that that, specifically, is unacceptable to Reform. Immigration must continue; the Tories' and Labour's achievements must be consolidated. This is a policy chasm.

Isn't all masturbation 'auto'?
Yeah, you’re right. I should change it to autofellatio
Are there people who can actually do that? Even women? If so, I'd like to shake their hand.
WHO REMEMBERS Marilyn Manson!

Lowe's interview with David Starkey was interesting. The advice/ coaching / warnings Starkey gave him were very pertinent.

Well, you’re getting “down low(e)” Christian nationalism with this lot
Yes something like that is probably fine
Great article as usual btw
