Restore Britain campaigners were attacked again by the greasy revolutionaries of Stand Up To Racism while trying to deliver leaflets for the Holborn & St Pancras by-election. The police watched the wretched communists assault Restore canvassers, but only chose to arrest Young Bob for defending himself after being slapped and spat on. 

Socialist Worker celebrated the violence, writing, "Restore Britain’s campaigners complained that voters should be able to choose who to vote for. But fascism is not a political choice like any other. It is not a force to be debated with... Restore Britain is similarly developing in a fascist direction. It would be foolish to wait for it to fully satisfy the label of fascism before smashing it."

It's hard to read this as anything but a call to violence. After the murders of Charlie Kirk and Ann Widdecombe, calling someone a fascist or Nazi just means "You can kill this person and be praised by progressives." Given that Stand Up To Racism is run by public sector unions and sitting Labour MPs, it appears they are the vigilante wing of the British state.

This has backfired, though, as Restore have surged to seven per cent in an i Paper poll. Rupert Lowe claims to have gained 600 new members, and that Restore enjoy double-digit support in 118 constituencies. Curiously, one poll shows more support among women than men. 

Meanwhile, Reform have lost their uninterrupted lead, with a More in Common poll showing them down 154 seats since July, and Restore costing them 76 of those seats. YouGov and the Times put them in third place last week, but now have them first (+4) as of 29th September.

Combining forces with the Conservatives wouldn't work either: that pact would lose 13 per cent of their hypothetical combined vote share, and boost Labour to fifty per cent through tactical voting.

Andy Burnham has ruled out an early election, which right now would produce a hung Parliament. But Reform must do some soul-searching, rather than blame Restore Britain, for why victory is no longer the certainty it once seemed. Perhaps if Farage had accepted Lowe's offer of a non-aggression pact, this wouldn't be a problem...
