In 2024, I started conversations with Reform about becoming a candidate in Scotland. I met their Chair over coffee, was invited to meetings, reviewed internal policy documents and began the long vetting process.
Around that time, I sent a message to Rupert Lowe. Simple point. I’d found his content sharp, direct and aligned with what many of us were thinking.
Then Reform began drifting. The words stayed bold but the delivery felt softer. The original ethos did not seem to be materialising in the way many of us had hoped. So I messaged Rupert again, directly, March 2025.
"Rupert, I’m currently getting vetted as a candidate in Scotland. Your content is great, on point and it strikes a bell with everyone who follows you. I’m not doing anything hasty until I understand if you will remain in the party or not. If you do leave the party and opt to go your own way, I’m happy to follow.
Regards,
Frank"
After that, I waited. Like a lot of people, I stuck with Reform by default because they were the closest thing to what Britain needed at the time. But I was never comfortable being publicly all in. I never posted about them and if I am honest, I think my instinct was telling me something.
Fast forward to now. Day one of Restore Britain. I watched Rupert’s launch video from the farm and something clicked. Since then, I have not stopped posting. For the first time in a long time, it feels like someone is saying what needs said and building something that actually reflects it.
And it is not just being felt here. We are already seeing global eyes on this. Elon Musk has publicly endorsed Rupert and Restore Britain, and I’m already reading comments from people around the world saying they hope this is the spark that lights a wider change. A shift back toward common sense, confidence, and belief in your own culture and country.
Look at the state of things. Leadership in major cities that feels detached from ordinary people. Political parties that protect their own interests first. Borders that look unmanaged. Farmers and small businesses being squeezed for simply trying to earn and provide. A country that has lost confidence and with it, respect.
For me, Restore Britain is the line in the sand. The time for half belief and self preservation politics is over. I am backing Restore because I want the UK to be serious again. Confident. Respected abroad. Honest about reality. Focused on its own people.
Congratulations to everyone who has already signed up. And to those still watching quietly, I look forward to welcoming you when you decide enough is enough.
