Another shade of blue? Nine ex-Reform councillors defect to Restore

Seven Kent County councillors and two North Northamptonshire County Councillors have joined Restore Britain. Reform UK previously expelled six of them.

Most of these were thrown out of Reform UK when @LeaderofKCC had her meltdown in the ‘suck it up’ cabinet meeting and the video was leaked. https://t.co/w5NmJN5AH8

How do you even get expelled from Reform? Not taking bribes from Russia?

According to the Independent:

The new Restore Britain group members are Paul Thomas, Oliver Bradshaw and Brian Black, who have been sitting as the Independent Group; Robert Ford and Isabella Kemp from the current Independent Reformers Group, and independent-sitting councillors Maxine Fothergill and Dean Burns.

Nigel Farage hoped that Kent County Council would be his flagship Reform council. Look how that one turned out.

Reform won control of Kent County Council in May last year, securing 57 of 81 seats. However, only 48 councillors remain. Nine were removed after they leaked a video showing council leader Ms Kemkaran shouting and swearing at her members.

The Canary’s Joe Glenton described the video as:

a group of dysregulated middle-aged toddlers having an incredibly puerile row

Is it a picture of what’s to come with Restore?

Kent Council was described as being “a window to what a Reform UK government would be like”….

It’s been chaos, full of lies and a wannabe dictator leading it…..so they weren’t wrong!

After all, it’s the same faces, just with a few different letters.

In North Northamptonshire, Jack Goncalvez and Darren Rance have both also defected to Restore.

But Restore Britain has not even registered with the Electoral Commission yet.

Restore Britain even more racist than Reform

I can’t believe I’m saying this (except I really can), but this clown show is competing for a number one spot in the  ‘more racist than Reform’ show.

Rupert Lowe’s Restore Britain party is promising to sweep ‘Anti-British”, “anti-white” elements out of our universities and schools. Doing so, he is copying the Nazi playbook of 1933. If you’re not worried now, you should be. https://t.co/cLV2qCDF36

— Richard Murphy (@RichardJMurphy) February 18, 2026

But hey, what’s one more shade of blue? They’re all the same racist, ‘we hate every other country’ but Israel-loving muppets. I wonder if there’s some sort of blue attire-for-hire company setting up in Westminster.

If not, I want a commission when it goes live.

Rupert Lowe is welcoming these vile, racist muppets that are too embarrassing even for Nigel Farage and Reform with open arms.

He’s not even scraping the bottom of the barrel. He’s scraping the dregs up off the floor that no doubt have the remnants of rat shit in them.
