Restore Britain is under brutal assault by the establishment.
Listen to me when I say this - they want us gone.
Everything will be thrown at us - false allegations, dishonest polling, media hysteria, vile personal attacks. They’ve already tried to put me in prison. It will all keep coming and coming. It is going to get a lot worse, the more support we gain.
The establishment is getting very nasty with us.
Good. It shows we are making progress.
Ask yourself why? Why do they want to destroy us? Why do they react with such fury whenever ordinary British people begin organising outside their control?
Because Restore Britain is not going to merely reform the establishment - we are going to destroy it. The system will be dismantled, the state will be torn apart and rebuilt as one that serves the people it always should have done - the British people.
The permanent Westminster machine that has grown rich and comfortable while Britain became poorer, weaker, more divided and less safe is biting back. Is that any surprise?
All-powerful bureaucrats who have lived the most comfortable life for decades in shadowy Westminster corridors will have it all taken from them.
Many will even go to prison.
That’s what will happen if Restore Britain takes power.
They do not want that. They will do everything to stop that from happening. We are already seeing it.
Reform, the Tories, Labour. With them, it all continues - their club is safe.
Different slogans. Same people. Same outcome. Same decline. Is it any wonder they hate Restore Britain so much?
The establishment understands it can accept a turquoise blue. Control it, use it.
They know they can’t with Restore Britain, and that is why they want us removed.
Because we are not here to ‘reform’. It is too late for that. The country is too far gone.
The old political consensus is dead. The system has failed too many people, in too many places, for too long.
We are here to restore Britain itself its borders, its safety, its confidence, its freedoms, its competence, its sense of who we are.
And no amount of smears or intimidation will stop us doing that.
Makerfield will show Britain the way.
If you want change. And I mean real change, radical change, unprecedented change.
Join us. Join the party. Join Restore Britain.
Get your country back.
Israeli-American spy Jonathan Pollard has suggested Israel may attack Egypt and Turkey in the near future.
Speaking on a podcast for news outlet Arutz Sheva, Pollard suggested Israel would need to prepare for further wars in the Middle East after Iran.
"I'm not so sure that we will have as easy a time with the Turks as we've had with the Iranians," he said.
"We have to be prepared for the next war, which will probably be against Turkey and Egypt. The storm is coming."
He also warned against Israel allowing the Turkish-backed transitional government in Syria to reclaim areas in the south that are occupied by Israeli forces, saying it would effectively leave them with the "Turks on our border".

Israel’s latest war with Iran and its war of words with Turkey have understandably grabbed headlines throughout this year. A less noticed development has been Israel’s recent concerns about another regional power, its southern neighbor, Egypt.
Operation Roaring Lion, the latest Israeli air campaign against Iran fought alongside the United States, was the most consequential to date. It came amid recurring speculation and fears over the past year that Israel and Turkey may eventually clash militarily in the future. Even before Roaring Lion, which followed Israel’s then-unprecedented Rising Lion 12-day air war in June 2025, former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett bluntly warned that “a new Turkish threat is emerging.”
“Turkey,” he declared in February, “is the new Iran.”
A few days after Roaring Lion came to a halt with the U.S.-Iran ceasefire that went into effect on April 8, Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan charged that, “After Iran, Israel cannot live without an enemy.”
“We see not only (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu’s administration but also some figures in the opposition – though not all – are seeking to declare Turkey the new enemy,” he said in clear reference to Bennett.
Israel and Turkey are at odds over a multitude of issues: from the Gaza Strip to the future of post-Assad Syria. While a war or military clash between them is almost certainly not imminent, it cannot be ruled out in the long term. Relations between the two countries have declined since 2010 and reached their present low point after Israel’s latest war in Gaza and the regional wars that ensued. Prior to 2010, they maintained close ties, including military cooperation. No longer.
Amidst its wars with Iran and its proxies and tensions with Turkey, Israel has also started expressing concerns about Egypt and its military. Despite maintaining peace since the landmark 1979 treaty, Israel has recently expressed concerns about Cairo’s military stength, suggesting it fears that it could become a threat in the near future.

MTG said:We just said goodbye to our good friends Thomas and Carolyn Massie.
The civil war in the Republican Party is successfully gutting the true America Firsters, like myself, Thomas and others.
But I don’t think most Americans realize the extent of what’s happening, how bad it is, and what it’s going to produce.
After taking the hard principled stand against war with Iran in June 2025 and releasing the Epstein files, the neocon controlled Republican establishment now backed by the President set out to destroy us.
Thomas and I took two different routes but ended up in the same place, which delivered a message to our colleagues to never go against the President even on issues he himself promised to do and at the same time delivered the louder stronger message to the American people that no matter what they say on tv, rally stages, committee hearings, campaign ads, or stump speeches, Republicans and Trump have overwhelmingly rejected America First and will do anything possible to cut the head off of anyone who tries to fly its banner.
The extent and extremes to which they have gone should shock everyone.
For me, I was Trump’s loudest champion for years supporting him when no one else would, voting with him 98% of the time, and he called me a traitor for releasing the Epstein files, refusing to support war with Iran, and fighting against the White House’s bad policies that only serve their donors like a 10 year moratorium on state rights to regulate and make laws on AI and data centers.
And yet my perfect conservative voting record, legislative accomplishments like the House passing my articles of impeachment of Biden’s DHS Secretary that oversaw the invasion of our country, passing my bill making it a felony to trans children under 18, my work as DOGE Chair defunding waste fraud and abuse and so much more, suddenly meant nothing to low educated Republicans that are easily manipulated by bot armies and bought and paid for social media influencers that spread absurd lies about me.
After supporting the Republican Party by paying all of my dues to the NRCC every Congress, endorsing and campaigning for Republican candidates, and spending millions and traveling the country to get Trump elected, to be called a traitor and not a single Republican (even the ones I helped get elected like JD Vance and others) not to utter a word of public support for me, it became abundantly clear that the Republican Party is something I can no longer support and want nothing to do with.
None of my policy views have changed, but everything changed about the man I supported to be president and the party I supported to gain the majority.
They are all under full capture and control.
And if you refuse to be captured and controlled with them, then their captors will set out to kill you, and the party sits in silence while it happens.
What they just did to Thomas Massie is unforgivable. I saw it all coming early, had just watched my friend Charlie Kirk assassinated, and knew they were going to do all of it and probably worse to me too, so I refused to allow it to happen to me, my family, and my district, so I resigned.
But Thomas stayed in the fight and they slaughtered him with tens of millions of foreign donor dollars that fueled lies, slander, character assassination, and even broke their own laws to do it.
They told lies to Kentucky’s 4th district that Massie had turned into a liberal Democrat, voting for Democrat policies, and even made vicious lying illegal AI ads showing him in a sexual relationship with AOC and Ilhan Omar.
Even though ALL of it was horrific lies proven wrong with his own 14 year impeccable America First liberty driven voting record, naive older voters in his district were easily fooled by the AIPAC and Israel funded campaign lies, and voted for a new candidate who refused every single debate with Thomas Massie and has no voting record to prove what he stands for at all.
The capture is complete.
