Discipline in Makerfield

If you plan on heading to Makerfield to help with campaigning, including talking to voters on the doorstep and in the streets... for God's sake, show some discipline.

The media is looking for any excuse to give us bad press, and they only need one idiot to step out of line, and he will be the face of our campaign in Makerfield.

The message we send must be clear, concise, and most of all, representative of the Britain we wish to Restore. What does that mean? It means acting like an English gentlemen. Polite but firm, unapologetic but measured. Invested, but not emotional or angry.

This is not about you - it's about the country. If you let yourself down, you let the country down.

Simple message - those that contribute and who are compatible are welcome; those who don't and aren't are not. We voted against mass immigration and it is only fair it is reversed. You don't have to pitch your nose to vote for Rupert Lowe, and unlike Farage he isn't surrounding himself with failed Tories. Our candidate is a local businesswoman, not a career politicians using the town to get a promotion, like Andy Burnham. And, above all, if you agree with us... VOTE. Every single Restore voter must vote, no matter what.

The University of Manchester SU is blatantly pandering to Muslims

This is one of only three motions put forward for voting recently by the University of Manchester’s student union, accommodating Friday as a Muslim holy day. It represent what the student union considers worthwhile and relevant for its students: a university-wide referendum to observe the timings of Muslim rituals.

If you don’t already know, the second picture is what Manchester looks like just a few minutes’ walk south of the University. And to top it all off, the SU will regularly ask its student how well they feel represented by it and its activities when they pull stunts like this.
